Guides readers on a deeply rewarding search for pure truth and perfect freedom, which means breaking away from the debilitating, consuming concern with the self.


About the Author
Total Freedom is both an introduction to Krishnamurti and an essential, extensive collection. It includes selections from his early work to his later Krishnamurti to Himself: His Last Journal, and his valuable insight into the nature of the self, meditation, sex, love, and the mysteries of life and death. Revealing his core teachings in all their eloquence and power, these writings incite us to recognize the "Truth is a pathless land," to accept no spiritual authority--not even himself--and to think critically, that we may free our minds and see clearly on our own personal journey.




First and Last Freedom, The

ANNOTATION

A leading spiritual teacher of our century, whose works have brought innter peace and spiritual revelation to millions.

FROM THE PUBLISHER

If the truth can set us free, where do we find it? According to Krishnamurti, we find truth not in society and its institutions, nor in organized religions and their dogmas, nor in any self-help guru or outside spiritual "authority." The hope for truth and ultimate freedom can't come from someone telling you what to do or believe; it can come only through your own creative self-understanding. In The First and Last Freedom Krishnamurti takes the reader on a wide-ranging quest exploring society's common concerns, such as suffering and fear, love and sex, the meaning of life, and personal transformation, always relating them to the essential search for pure truth and perfect freedom.
