During his life, Jiddu Krishnamurti (1895-1986) was known for his ability to see the core issues of our day with a timeless vision. With a gift for crossing the barriers of time, space, and spirit, he influenced a host of great 20th-century minds, including George Bernard Shaw, Aldous Huxley, and Henry Miller. In Truth Is a Pathless Land, Krishnamurti discusses a startling constellation of philosophical issues: love, greed, violence, separation, time, death, conflict, and fear.

Acknowledged as one of the greatest religious teachers of this or any other age, the late J. Krishnamurti was a visionary whose ideas are still ahead of his time. New Dimensions host Michael Toms was fortunate to capture this philosopher's penetrating wisdom in 1983, just a few years before his death at the age of 90.

J. Krishnamurti (1895-1986) was a philosopher in the original sense of the word, not an academic or intellectual, but a lover of truth who raised essential questions of living. He spent his adult life speaking to people around the world about eternal questions of life. In this series of eight talks, given in Ojai, California, in 1955, he confronts the confusion, habits, and assumptions of the human mind, and claims these lie at the root of all violence and suffering in the world.

Krishnamurti addresses love, greed, violence, separation, time, death, conflict, and fear, discussing them all with a clarity and insight that makes the entire spiritual landscape appear newly visible and replete with possibilities. Krishnamurti also has much to say about the source of our problems, both personal and planetary, with appropriate comments on how to resolve them.

One of the classic works of J. Krishnamurti, What Are You Doing with Your Life delves into the foundational pillars of human existence. This Hindi translation by Achalesh Chandra Sharma presents the premise of Krishnamurti’s teachings and writings. Some of the deepest questions about identity, existence, needs, desires, freedom, respect, knowledge, work, money, success and relationships are explored in a lucid and logical manner.  

In this Hindi-language translation of The First and Last Freedom, Krishnamurti emphasises on the importance of self-understanding, arguing that truth cannot be found within formal institutions, organised religions and their dogmas or in any guru or outside authority. He claims that we are all operating with the sole focus of the self and its context in time and place - this results in competition, conflict and the constant promotion of one's own self over all others, even those closest to us.  

The Urgency of Change Krishnamurthy ki sarvadhik chunautipurva pustak hai, jaisa ki 1971 mein London se prakashit iske mool angrezi sankaran ke mukhpristh par ingit kiya gaya tha.  

A Hindi translation of J. Krishnamurti’s On God - by Sanjeev Kumar Sharma, Vinay Kumar Vaidya and Shakti Kumar - the audiobook is an inquiry into the search for the divine. Can we ever know the unknowable? How do we understand it through our thoughts and experiences? Krishnamurti peels off layers within the eternal quest to know that which is beyond human reality.  

Jeevan Ek Anveshan consists of 14 intensive dialogues that Jiddu Krishnamurthy held with his close associates, co-scholars and religious seekers. These dialogues are not viewpoints; neither are they questions or answers. Instead, they form a new genre of communication that have a tentative beginning, deep listening that offers deep insights without offering any quick solutions. These explorations lead to newer and deeper perceptions. This book is invaluable for those who wish to have a deeper understanding of the processes of self-knowing.

"YOUR DAILY LIVING, when you look at it very deeply, has no meaning. You are striving, wanting money, position, prestige, and when you do have it, what is it? You have not found out for yourself if life has real meaning. You ask what the purpose or goal of life is, rather than the meaning. The purpose can be invented by clever people, or you can invent purpose out of your misery, confusion and conflict. But the purpose is not the meaning. The meaning is to find out for yourself by looking at yourself, the depth of your heart, the depth of your feelings, the depth of your thought.So, when you ...
