Description
In this book we meet with the modern sage U.G. Krishnamurti andlisten to his penetrating voice describing life and reality as they are.What is body and what is mind? Is there a soul? Is there a God?What is enlightenment? Is there a life after death?Never before have these questions been tackled with such simplicity,candour and clarity.In 1967 UG underwent a transformation, the realization of whichcame to him sitting on a wooden bench, overlooking the hills ofSaanen—the very same that you see on the cover. Preferring to callit the natural state rather than enlightenment, he insisted that anytransformation he underwent was within the human body and not inthe mind. It is the natural state of being that sages like Buddha, Jesusand Sri Ramana stepped into, and UG never tired of pointing outthat ‘this is the way you, stripped of the machinations of thought, arealso functioning’.
