Conversations W J Krishnamurti

This simple little book is a transcript of a series of conversations the author had with an aged Krisnamurti in his last years. K. is expressing his central teachings in very simple terms here. I like this one. It's worth tracking down a copy.

This book will probably not facinate those new to Krishnamurti, or who only have a casual interest in his work. But for the rest of us who have read a great deal on K and who want to find out about his actual personality, this book gives us a rare insight. K was rarely ever 'interviewed', at least in the way normal interviews go. The author has created a relaxed environment for K to speak, and K's easy going but wise nature is revealed. K often speaks personally in the book, and also his philosophy is revealed. K's philosophy is completely awe-inspiring in this book; either K is a rare, super-insightful mood, or Prasat has illuminated K's words in his own writing, or both. I suggest both.
