Jiddu: Homosexuality Is a Fact Like Heterosexuality

Philosophical and Psychological FoundationsRelationships and BondsCommunication and Expression Conscious Transformation

There are many people who have considerable difficulty with the fact of homosexuality. Teachers, for centuries, have avoided this question….This has been a question for thousands and thousands of years….As heterosexuality is a fact, homosexuality exists in the world. Why do we make it into such an enormous problem? Apparently we don’t make heterosexuality a problem at all, but we make this into a problem, why? It is a fact. So should we inquire into this question, into heterosexuality, and homosexuality differently? Not condemn one or the other, or approve one and deny the other, but inquire why sexuality, both, has become so colossally important.

It is only the free mind, free brain that has no problems, that can meet problems and resolve them immediately….We have problems in relationship between man and woman, or between man and man—homosexuality, in this country, more and more, not that it doesn’t exist in other countries, but here it is becoming—you know all about it. Look at it very closely, observe it, not try to change it, try to direct it, say, “it must not be this way,” or “it must be that way,” or “help me to get over it,” but just to observe. You can’t change the line of that mountain, or the flight of the bird, or the flow of the water, swift, you just observe it and see the beauty of it. But if you observe and say, “that is not so beautiful as the mountain I saw yesterday,” you are not observing, you are merely comparing.

Jiddu Krishnamurti
