Jiddu Krishnamurti è stato considerato a livello mondiale uno dei più grandi pensatori e insegnanti religiosi di tutti i tempi. Non esponeva alcuna filosofia o religione, ma parlava delle cose che ci riguardano tutti nella vita di tutti i giorni, dei problemi del vivere nella società moderna con la sua violenza e corruzione, della ricerca individuale di sicurezza e felicità, e della necessità per l'umanità di liberarsi dai fardelli interiori di paura, rabbia, dolore e tristezza. Spiegò con grande precisione il funzionamento sottile della mente umana, indicando la necessità di portare una qualità profondamente meditativa e spirituale alla vita quotidiana. I suoi insegnamenti trascendono i sistemi di credenze creati dall'uomo, il sentimento nazionalista e il settarismo, e tuttavia offrono un nuovo significato e direzione alla ricerca della verità dell'umanità.
Krishnamurti is a leading spiritual teacher of our century. In The First and Last Freedom he cuts away symbols and false associations in the search for pure truth and perfect freedom. Through discussions on suffering, fear, gossip, sex and other topics, Krishnamurti’s quest becomes the readers, an undertaking of tremendous significance.
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.
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. Edited from the original tapes at Saanen, 7/9/67-8/7/67.
Krishnamurti shows how people can free themselves radically and immediately from the tyranny of the expected, no matter what their age--opening the door to transforming society and their relationships.
