Autorenporträt
Jiddu Krishnamurti (1895-1986) was a renowned philosophical and spiritual thinker, speaker, and writer of the 20th century. He was born in Madanapalle, India, and in his early years was groomed to be a spiritual leader by the Theosophical Society. However, he rejected this role and dissolved the organization built around him to pursue a more independent path of inquiry and teaching. Krishnamurti's philosophy was not based on any religion or dogma but instead focused on the understanding of the workings of the human mind and the realization of the potential for transformation inherent in every individual. His teachings were characterized by their non-authoritarian and personal approach to philosophical exploration, emphasizing the direct understanding of oneself and the cultivation of intelligence and compassion in daily life. Krishnamurti authored several books, amongst which 'Education as Service' can be highlighted for its insight into the role of education in developing an individual's potential. Throughout his life, Krishnamurti engaged with scholars, scientists, and thinkers, dialoguing on matters of psychological significance and human well-being. His extensive body of work continues to influence various fields, including education, psychology, and philosophy, making him one of the significant spiritual teachers of the twentieth century.
