Krishnamurti's writing is raw, unapologetic, and devoid of the usual flowery language associated with spiritual texts. He cuts through the mystique surrounding enlightenment with a no-nonsense approach that forces readers to confront their beliefs and preconceptions. The book serves as a thought-provoking contribution to the literary world, offering a fresh perspective on a timeless topic. Krishnamurti's work can be categorized as a blend of philosophy and spiritual guidance, making it a valuable addition to any reader interested in exploring the depths of enlightenment. U. G. Krishnamurti, a spiritual teacher and philosopher, sets himself apart from other authors in the genre by challenging established spiritual practices and beliefs. His unconventional approach to enlightenment stems from his own experiences, which allows readers to connect with the raw authenticity of his words. Krishnamurti's background as a former disciple of the renowned Jiddu Krishnamurti gives him a unique insight into the complexities of spiritual enlightenment, offering a refreshing perspective for readers seeking unconventional wisdom. I highly recommend 'The Mystique of Enlightenment' to readers who are ready to question their existing beliefs and explore a different approach to enlightenment. Krishnamurti's bold and unapologetic style will challenge readers to think outside the box and reevaluate their understanding of spirituality and enlightenment.
Autorenporträt
Uppaluri Gopala Krishnamurti (1918-2007), better known as U.G., was an Indian speaker who questioned the state of enlightenment as a real thing. Instead of using the word "enlightenment", he used "calamity" and "natural state" to describe an event in his life. He claimed that the return to the natural state is a rare, a causal, biological occurrence, an event which he referred to in his own life as "the calamity". Because of this, he discouraged people from pursuing the "natural state" as a spiritual goal. He rejected the very basis of thought and in doing so negated all systems of thought and knowledge. Hence he explained his assertions were experiential and not speculative – "Tell them that there is nothing to understand."
