On Relationship

This book made up of various lectures given in different places at different times describes Krishnamurti's thoughts on relationship. It is a decent introduction to his thought, but it does a great job of illuminating his thoughts on the importance of not letting conditioning get in the way of seeing who is really in front of you in the moment. There is a lot of repitition in this book. However, this is a good thing because it covers the territory of relationship from many angles and this will help you to understand and learn the concepts which may be new to some people. I recommend this book as a good introduction to Krishnamurti for curious readers who are interested in something directly relevant to their everyday life. It will help you to look at relationship in new ways and this will certainly help you to get unstuck from unhealthy patterns or ways of being in relationship through choiceless awareness. While Krishanmurti does not offer specific methods, he does provide a useful framework for thinking about relationship. This book is highly accessible and contains many beautiful analogies and quotes.
