by Jsrl Narayana Moorty (Author)
This book belongs to the genre of spirituality, especially personal and spiritual development and enrichment. It includes several interrelated strands: a memoir of the author's encounters over the years with the contemporary spiritual teacher, UG Krishnamurti (deceased March 2007), an exposition and critique of what he considers to be the essence of UG's teachings, an analysis of UG's teaching process, and the author's thoughts concerning various spiritual, life, as well as philosophical questions that are related in some fashion to UG's teachings. In part, these writings encompass the author's attempt to integrate UG's radical and critical teachings regarding man, spirituality and spiritual practice, into his day-to-day life. His reflections on such diverse topics as the self, meaning of life, morality and meditation should be of interest to the general reader as well as students of philosophy.
