Raised by the Theosophical Society from childhood to become the vehicle of a coming World Teacher, Krishnamurti in 1929 dissolved the order built around him with the line: truth is a pathless land. He spent the rest of his life offering nothing to organize around — no teaching to accept, no method to follow, no teacher to idolize.
His dialogues with Bohm, Bronowski, and others explored perception, attention, and what he called “choiceless awareness.” His insistence: the observer is the observed; thought cannot solve the problems thought creates; freedom is not gradual.
