Product Description

Product Description

This comprehensive record of Krishnamurti’s teachings is an excellent, wide-ranging introduction to the great philosopher’s thought. With among others, Jacob Needleman, Alain Naude, and Swami Venkatasananda, Krishnamurti examines such issues as the role of the teacher and tradition; the need for awareness of ‘cosmic consciousness; the problem of good and evil; and traditional Vedanta methods of help for different levels of seekers.

From the Back Cover

"Intelligence comes into being when the brain discovers its fallibility, when it discovers what it is capable of, and what it is not."
KRISHNAMURTI

This comprehensive record of Krishnamurti's teaching is an excellent, wide-ranging introduction to the great philosopher's thought. Within general discussions of conflict, fear, violence, religious experience, self-knowledge, and intelligence, Krishnamurti examines specific issues, such as the role of the teacher and tradition; the need for awareness of 'cosmic consciousness'; the problem of good and evil; and traditional Vedanta methods of help for different levels of seekers. Krishnamurti discusses these themes with Jacob Needleman, Alain Naude, and Swami Venkatasananda, among others. 'The Awakening of Intelligence' is indispensable for all those intent on a fuller understanding of Krishnamurti's teaching.

J. Krishnamurti (1895-1986) was a world-renowned spiritual teacher who, for more than fifty years, shared his message with people of all ages, races, and backgrounds. He wrote many books, including 'First and Last Freedom, Freedom from the Known', and 'Last Talks at Saanen 1985'.

By A Customer
Format:Paperback
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to rid yourself of fear and become at peace with yourself and your surroundings? If you have, this is the book for you. Through a series of conversations, J. Krishnamurti gives a breif overview of many of his contraversial beliefs. This is a wonderful introduction to a different world. A world without avarice and malice, but with love and intelligence filling the void of the modern man/woman. This book is a great starting block not only to the works of Krishnamurti, but to a new way of thinking an living.
