J. Krishnamurti
About the Author
J. Krishnamurti, a profound philosopher and spiritual teacher born in 1895 in Madanapalle, India, was discovered as a child by Theosophists who groomed him as a world teacher, only for him to dissolve the Order of the Star in 1929, rejecting organized religion and authority. Throughout his life, Krishnamurti traveled the world delivering talks and dialogues that challenged conventional beliefs, emphasizing self-inquiry, freedom from conditioning, and the direct perception of truth without intermediaries. His teachings, rooted in keen observation of the human mind, continue to inspire seekers of inner transformation. Krishnamurti's legacy endures through his extensive writings and recordings, including Awakening of Intelligence (The Collected Works of J. Krishnamurti Book 1), which compiles his insightful essays and discussions on consciousness and awareness.
