Book Description
I was closely associated with Sri J. Krishnamurti and enthusiastically involved in his work for some 30 years. Most of the passages in this book are taken from my notebooks. Unfortunately I have never been able to bring myself to keeping a diary but I have written long accounts of my many interesting private meet-ings and interviews with Krishnaji and other out-standing personalities. This work is not a biography of Krishnaji, although, as may be expected, it abounds in biographical in-formation as well as his observations on questions of great spiritual interest. The anecdotes of Krishnaji's life given here have a certain deep and hidden philosophical meaning. Anecdotes assist us to understand his enigmatic perso-nality. Even his _jokes and casual remarks should be taken seriously because they apparently emanated from that creative inward silence which he termed 'the otherness'.
J. Krishnamurti As I Knew Him Susunaga Weeraperuma J. Krishnamurti As I Knew Him is a penetrating description of]. Krishnamurti by a writer who was closely associated with him and enthusiastically involved in his worldwide activities for some 30 years. Abounding in hitherto unpublished statements by Krishnamurti on various questions of spiritual interest, the work is an invaluable source of information on the life and teachings of this extraordinary sage. The author has written long accounts of his many private meetings and interviews with Krishnamurti and has narrated numerous anecdotes of Krishnamurti's life and even quoted some of his jokes and casual remarks which make the book highly interesting.
