krishnamurti on love

jiddu krishnamurti is considered one of the greatest philosophical minds of the 20th century. he spent his entire adult life giving passionate discourses on the myriad ways the human mind turns to self-delusion in its never-ending search for psychological fulfillment.

i have read some of his books, and his philosophy makes a lot of sense to me. i personally agree with his views so to say. i think he basically says the same thing as most advaitic traditions like zen, tao, ramana maharishi, osho, vipassana buddhism, etc. although his approach can be sometimes a bit hard to understand. if you want to learn about his teachings, i would recommend the book "think on these things". i think its a pretty good introduction to him.

thought i'd give a link to one of his talks, this is on one of the greatest mysteries of all - love. click HERE to read it.
