I don't know why one has made such an extraordinary thing out of young people, why it has become such an important thing. Krishnamurti: That is why I don't think it is applicable to the young people. My question only is: perhaps we can't very well expect young people to be serious.
Needleman: I understand what you are saying. I may be mistaken, because I see only these so-called young people in the distance, among the audience, and occasionally here and by their questions, by their laughter, by their applause, they don't strike me as being very serious, mature, with great intent. But as far as I have seen, I am afraid there is not a quality of seriousness in all this. Krishnamurti: For a new possibility of growth, don't you think, Sir, that one has to be rather serious, and not merely jump from one spectacular amusement to another? If one has looked at all the religions of the world and seen their organized futility, and out of that perception seen something real and clear, perhaps then there could be something new in California, or in the world. Do you see in this very mixed phenomenon any hope of a new flowering for modern civilization, a new possibility of growth? Needleman: There is much talk of a spiritual revolution among young people, particularly here in California.
