About this Item

Paperback. A series of Study Books was produced in the 1990s for use as concentrated study material on a particular topic at the four-day dialogue weekends held in Ojai, California. Editors used the CD-ROM to compile an extensive collection of excerpts for each theme-which range from one sentence in length to an entire talk-and they have organised them into chapters of subsidiary topics. These books are an invaluable resource of excerpted material as they offer a sustained survey of each subject, allowing for a deeper comprehension of what Krishnamurti was conveying. Much of the material has been drawn from the Collected Works of J. Krishnamurti, Vols. I-XVII, the record of Krishnamurti's public talks from 1933 to 1967. Krishnamurti proposes that the current crisis is not social, political, economic or religious but the direct consequence of our fragmented way of living: The fault is in our consciousness. Over 600 passages were studied in all, and the aspects of choiceless awareness most frequently addressed by Krishnamurti were noted and then selected for this book. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781888004045

About the Author:

Krishnamurti, Jiddu born of middle-class Brahmin parents, was recognized at age fourteen as the coming World Teacher. Krishnamurti claimed allegiance to no caste, nationality or religion and was bound by no tradition. He traveled the world and spoke spontaneously to large audiences until the end of his life at age ninety. He said man has to free himself of all fear, conditioning, authority and dogma through self-knowledge and this will bring about order and psychological mutation.
