Commentaries On Living 1

A Study Book Of The Teachings of J. Krishnamurti

About this book

In this series of commentaries J. Krishnamurti, one of the great thinkers of our time, touches upon many human problems-our hopes, our fears, our illusions, our beliefs, our prejudices-and in the simplest language seems to pierce to their roots."The sheer simplicity is breathtaking. The reader is given, in one paragraph, often in one sentence, enough to keep him exploring, questioning, thinking for days." -Anne Morrow Lindbergh."The insight, spiritual and poetic, of these commentaries is as simply expressed as it is searching in its demand."-Times Literary Supplement (London)."Krishnamurti is no other than he seems, a free man, one of the first quality, growing older as diamonds do but the gem-like flame not dating, and alive in these Commentaries. It is a treasure."-Francis Hacket, The New Republic
