The Urgency Of Change By J krishnamurti

A new edition of a fifty-year-old classic by J. Krishnamurti. The topics in this book range from conditioning and awareness, fear and God, to morality and art, suffering and seeking. The dialogues here sparkle with a crispness and clarity that would be the delight of any reader who seeks to deepen his understanding of Krishnamurti's teachings; and the art of inquiry through the medium of dialogue finds its finest expression in many passages. The falsehood behind lofty ideals is exposed in statements such as: ‘Forgiveness comes only after you have accumulated rancour; forgiveness is resentment.’ Art is redefined as the absence of the ‘me’. A discussion on the ethics of suicide becomes an occasion for reflecting on right living. A question about fear turns into a discussion on dependence. The question ‘How am I to live in this world?' turns into ‘How am I to change?’ Thus, to the discerning reader, every chapter presents new insights.

About the Author: J. Krishnamurti, a globally revered thinker and teacher, emphasized universal truths rather than adhering to any philosophy, religion, or ideology. He focused on issues of daily life, such as modern society's violence, fear, and the quest for happiness, urging humanity to transcend divisions caused by religion, nationalism, and ideology. His teachings stressed the importance of meditative awareness, inner freedom, respect for nature, and living harmoniously without destroying ourselves or the environment.

J. Krishnamurti's approach was personal and direct, addressing both individuals and large audiences as a compassionate guide rather than a guru. His insights into the human mind and sacredness resonated timelessly, providing fresh perspectives for scholars, scientists, and everyday listeners alike. His legacy includes extensive writings, talks, and discussions that continue to inspire and guide humanity.
