Meditations

by Jiddu Krishnamurti

"Krishnamurti (1895-1986) went from his origins in a small south Indian village to become one of the great spiritual teachers of the twentieth century. He taught that the only way to peace on earth is in the transformation of the human psyche - and that there is no path to this transformation, no method for achieving it, no gurus or spiritual authorities who can help. The transformation is a truth each of us must discover within ourselves.". "This classic collection of brief excerpts from Krishnamurti's books and talks presents the essence of his teaching on meditation - a state of attention, beyond thought, which brings total freedom from authority and ambition, fears and separateness. This doubly expanded edition features even more of the great teacher's wisdom than the original version, and also includes some never-before-published material."--BOOK JACKET.
