The Collected Works of J. Krishnamurti VolII: What is Right Action?: v. 2 (Collected Works of J. Krishnamurti: What is Right

Until The End Of His Life At The Age Of Ninety, Krishnamurti The World TeacherTraveled The World Speaking As A Private Person. The Rejection Of All Spiritual And Psychological Authority, Including His Own, Is A Fundamental Theme. A Major Concern Is The Social Structure And How It Conditions The Individual. The Emphasis In His Talks And Writings Is On The Psychological Barriers That Prevent Clarity Of Perception. Because His Subject Is All Embracing, The Collected Works Which Are In 18 Volumes, Are Of Compelling Interest. Within His Talks In Any One Year, Krishnamurti Was Not Able To Cover The Whole Range Of His Vision, But Broad Amplifications Of Particular Themes Are Found Throughout These Volumes. In Them He Lays The Foundations Of Many Of The Concepts He Used In Later Years. The Collected Works Contain KrishnamurtiS Previously Published Talks, Discussions, Answers To Specific Questions And Writings For The Years 1933 Through 1967. They Are Anauthentic Record Of His Teachings, Taken From Transcripts Of Verbatim Shorthand Reports And Tape Recordings. Jiddu Krishnamurti Was Born In 1895 Of Brahmin Parents In South India. At The Age Of Fourteen He Was Proclaimed The Coming World Teacher By Annie Besant, Then President Of The Theosophical Society, An International Organization That Emphasized The Unity Of World Religions. Mrs. Besant Adopted The Boy And Took Him To England, Where He Was Educated And Prepared For His Coming Role. In 1911 A New Worldwide Organization Was Formed With Krishnamurti As Its Head, Solely To Prepare Its Members For His Advent As World Teacher. In 1929, After Many Years Of Questioning Himself And The Destiny Imposed Upon Him, Krishnamurti Disbanded This Organization, Saying Truth Is A Pathless Land And You Cannot Approach It By Any Path Whatsoever, By Any Religion, By Any Sect.
