Jiddu Krishnamurti fue considerado a nivel mundial como uno de los más grandes pensadores y maestros religiosos de todos los tiempos. No exponía ninguna filosofía ni religión, sino que hablaba de las cosas que nos conciernen a todos en nuestra vida cotidiana, de los problemas de vivir en la sociedad moderna con su violencia y corrupción, de la búsqueda individual de seguridad y felicidad, y de la necesidad de que la humanidad se libere de las cargas internas del miedo, la ira, el dolor y la tristeza. Explicó con gran precisión el funcionamiento sutil de la mente humana, señalando la necesidad de aportar una cualidad profundamente meditativa y espiritual a la vida diaria. Sus enseñanzas trascienden los sistemas de creencias creados por el hombre, el sentimiento nacionalista y el sectarismo, y sin embargo, ofrecen un nuevo significado y dirección a la búsqueda de la verdad de la humanidad.
In this fascinating collection culled from teachings never before brought together in book form, Krishnamurti offers wise reflections and fresh perceptions on love, politics, society, death, self- censorship, relationships, solitude, meditation, spiritual growth, and much more.
En esta profunda obra Krishnamurti explora la futilidad de buscar el conocimiento de lo “incognoscible” y muestra que sólo cuando hemos dejado de buscar con nuestros intelectos, podemos estar “radicalmente libres” para experimentar la realidad y la verdad. Presenta a “la mente religiosa” como la que percibe directamente lo sagrado, a diferencia de la que se adhiere a un dogma religioso.
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.
In 1950 Krishnamurti said: "It is only when the mind is not escaping in any form that it is possible to be in direct communion with that thing we call lonliness, the alone, and to have communion with that thing, there must be affection, there must be love." On Love and Lonliness is a compelling investigation of our intimate relationships with ourselves, others, and society. Krishnamurti suggests that "true relationship" can come into being only when there is self-knowledge of the conditions which divide and islolate individuals and groups. Only by renouncing the self can we understand the problem of lonliness, and truly love.

For Krishnamurti, rational thought had its uses but also its limitations; what becomes more important is what he describes as 'total seeing'. To make this concept clear to people trained in the Western intellectual tradition of pure rationalism, he describes it in enlightening talks & then engages in spirited dialogs with listeners. The theme of the talks is freedom & the demand of the human spirit to reach beyound itself. The starting point in the 1st talk is the need to face life in its totality.
