Hello out there!
I recently read Freedom from the Known by J. Krishnamurti and it totally blew my mind. I was so confused and intrigued at the same time that I did not know exactly how to react. At some points the arguments that Krishnamurti made complete sense and I totally got his ideals, even if I didn’t agree. But then at other points I was really confused. He kept saying that philosophy is just people putting thoughts into our mind to keep us from achieving “total awareness”, but in the same respect is that not what he was doing? I don’t know maybe my mind it just not advanced enough to grasp such knowledge. If any one has read this and has any interpretation of it or other feed back please help me!!!
