For Dalip Singh Wasin,

Do you mean that over the billion people living on this earth that there are not even 10 people who are not under any of the pressures you mentioned that would prevent them from becoming wise?

I have to agree with you it seems silly to presume that been wise is been unstressed – think about the Dalai Lama or Mahatma Gandhi weren’t they under any pressure? Think about great minds like Albert Einstein or Galileo Galileli – they were under pressure!

I dug up this passage on line about Krishnamurti that speaks to me, and maybe it will have meaning for you too.

"Krishnamurti suggested that in the mirror of relationship (to people, to things, to nature and ourselves) each of us can come to understand the content of our own consciousness, and discover that it is common to all humanity. Our violent, conflict-ridden world, he further suggested, cannot be transformed into a life of goodness, love and compassion by any political, social or economic strategies, but only through our own observation and fundamental change—a first-hand understanding not dependent on any guru, system or organized religion".
