The Wholeness of Life

My favorite Krishnamurti book is The Wholeness of Life. I read it early on in my seeking days and it touched me like nothing had done before. I felt that this was the direction I needed to go. For years Krishnamurti stayed with me as an voice of inspiration. I had just started to read Krishnamurti as I went to Asia for the first time in 1986 and found out that he had died that year. Just my luck I thought.
Later when I met Andrew Cohen in 1991 I learned that he had started his teaching in 1986, so I thought that was a nice co-incidence. (Andrew had himself been touched by Krishnamurti many years before in Saanen Switzerland while at a seminar there).

For me, Andrew has been taking Krishnamurtis teaching further thanks to his engagement in community and continue to push our understanding as to what freedom implies and means.
