  • 'If You Want to Understand, You Must Look Through My Mind.'
    ‘If you want to understand, you must look through my mind.’ THE KRISHNAMURTI SYNDROME Ludo Noens I n 1986, Jiddu Krishnamurti, the remarkable Indian speaker and philosophical teacher, passed away. For many people he was and still is the most incorruptible and radical ‘spiritual leader’ of the 20th century. To analyse this extremely sharp witted and profound Indian thinker in the context of a controversial psychiatric disease such as multiple personality disorder or MPD (recently reclassified as dissociative identity disorder or DID) may offend a good number of people. But then again, what is a ‘psychiatric illness’? After all, is psychiatry not largely a pseudoscientific special- ism that uses the word illness very lavishly? Anyway, a careful reading of two standard biographies indicates that the functioning of Krishnamurti’s mind indeed very often showed similarities with that of many ‘cases’ from the scientific, clinical MPD literature. Pos- sibly, the MPD-crisis Krishnamurti endured as a young man, may have laid the basis for his destructive opinion on the status of thought, memory and the Ego. Central in Krishnamurti’s philosophy is the notion that the, mostly blindly assimilated and automatically react- ing, human personality is erroneously perceived as an autonomous and self-determined ego. For Krishnamurti the very idea of the ego is a boring and conflict sowing illusion, sustained by the sensation of continuity (memory, psychological time). By the way, this point of view is not only in accord- ance with the millennia-old Hindu Upanishads but also to a certain extent with the most recent findings of neuroscientists studying the functioning of the brain.

In this essay, I will describe the most important milestones of his life, particularly the main works (talks, books, videos) performed by him in the field of meditation, relationships and education. Keywords: Spiritual Indian Philosopher, Initiation (Mystical Union),Meditation, Relationships, Education. 1. INTRODUCTION Jiddu Krishnamurti was born on 12th May 1895, in the town of Mandanapalle, in Andhra Pradesh from a family of Brahmins who spoke the Telegu. He was the eighth son of Jiddu Narianiah (father) and Jiddu Sanjeevamma (mother) who had eleven children. His mother died when he was ten years old, while his father worked in the Revenue Department of the British administration and was a member of Theosophical Society [1]. In 1907, after retired from his job, Narianiah became a clerk in the Theosophical Society, in Adyar. During this time, Krishnamurti and his brother Nitya were tutored by the theosophists Charles Lead beater and Annie Besant.

  • Print Culture and the Globalization of the Occult in the Long Nineteenth Century

I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: ………………………………………………………….. 2 Abstract This thesis seeks to examine the relationship between occult religion and the global circulation of texts. For some time now, scholars have rejected the secularism thesis or the idea that there has been a decline of religion in the post-Enlightenment period. Today, we largely accept that religion did not actually decline or disappear but, rather, it has changed form. Religion shifted from traditional religious institutions to become an aspect of aesthetic culture, available through the commercial economy. My work explores how the relationship between the book and commercial religion emerged and evolved during the long nineteenth century. Occultism has long been viewed as an aspect of the rise of secular society following the Enlightenment. This thesis proposes a new lens through which we can view the evolution of occultism, seeing it as a response to growth in global networks of empire and the commercialization of religion through the printed word.

    2 Krishnamurti Foundation Bulletin 93 3 America 2019 s you leave the Pacific behind and enter into the country, winding over various small hills, The air is peaceful, quiet, full of that strange dignity of A the country, you enter the valley. It is quiet, perfumed almost untouched by man. You enter into this valley, which is almost like a vast cup, a nest. Then you leave the little village and climb to about 1,400 feet, passing rows and with orange rows of orange orchards and groves. The air is perfumed with orange blossom. The whole valley is filled with that blossom scent. And the smell of it is in your mind, in your heart, in your whole body. And there is a quietness in the mountains, a dignity. And each time you look at those hills and the high mountain, which is over 6,000 feet, you are really surprised that such a country exists. Each time you come to this quiet, peaceful valley there is a feeling of strange aloofness, of deep silence, and the vast spreading of slow time. And the mountains that morning were extraordinarily beautiful. You could almost touch them. The majesty, the vast sense of permanency is there in them. And you enter quietly into the house where you have lived for over sixty years and the atmosphere, the air, is, if one can use that word, holy; you can feel it. As it has rained considerably, for it is the rainy season, all the hills and the little folds of the mountain are green, flourishing, full – the earth is smiling with such delight, with some deep quiet understanding of its own existence.

  • Introduction
    C. W. Leadbeater: the “Received Tradition” Pedro Oliveira One of the most sacred principles in the American criminal justice system – holding that a defendant is innocent until proven guilty. In other words, the prosecution must prove, beyond a reasonable doubt, each essential element of the crime charged. Definition from Nolo’s Plain-English Law Dictionary The French include in their French Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizens of 1789 stating that ‘every man is presumed innocent until declared guilty’. … Roman law, canon law, the jus commune: from these sources spring that great Anglo- Saxon principle: A person is presumed innocent until proven guilty. (‘Innocent Until Proven Guilty: The Origins of a Legal Maxim’, Kenneth Pennington, The Catholic University of America, Columbus School of Law, 2003) The foundational legal principle quoted above, although universally recognized and formally adopted, did not apply to Charles Webster Leadbeater (CWL) in his lifetime. At different times in his life serious accusations were made against at him, mostly involving alleged immoral (and reportedly criminal) behaviour towards boys. His accusers were so thoroughly convinced that he was guilty that they communicated this conviction to many others within the Theosophical Society and to the press. And yet, in spite of almost a lifelong campaign of denunciation and defamation he was never charged or prosecuted. But he was ‘proven’ guilty by his accusers and such ‘proof’ became an integral part of almost every biographical rendering of his life. In one of her letters about him to Laura Mead, wife of G. R. S. Mead, Helen I. Dennis, who led the charges against him in her letter to Annie Besant of January 1906, declared that she became aware in 1905 that charges of immoral behaviour against CWL were repeatedly made against him ‘for at least fifteen years’ in India and Europe.

Following a tradition of Indian religious figures who toured Britain and America in the nineteenth and twentieth century, Baba was removed from organised religion and placed emphasis on self-realisation, and attracted large British followings notably dominated by women. This article argues that the 1930s witnessed a continuing interest in Indian religious figures and adherence to Orientalist stereotypes about Indian religiosity despite changing political dynamics. Exploring a range of public and private responses to Baba, following comparison with his contemporary Jiddu Krishnamurti, and discussing the role of British mediators Paul Brunton and Francis Younghusband, this article explores British impressions of Indian religious figures in the 1930s and how they were informed by notions of race, religiosity and gender.

  • The Great Game: the Classical Architecture of Sir Edwin Lutyens
    The Great Game: The Classical Architecture of Sir Edwin Lutyens HugH Petter1 Abstract: Sir Edwin Lutyens (1869-1944) (Fig. 1) was one of the most inventive and prolific Classical architects in Britain in the twentieth century, and his work is now much admired around the world. To understand his mature buildings, how they were conceived, detailed and executed, one needs to understand the man, and the story of his evolution as an architect. This paper explains that journey. From his unusual education in his youth, and the Arts and Crafts Movement into which as a young architect he was born; his early integration of Classical details within vernacular designs; his ‘Wrenaissance’ (increasing fascination with the work of Sir Christopher Wren [1632- 1723]) and his evolution into full blown canonical Classical designs, and then the final flowering into abstract Classicism and the style that he was to make his own. Keywords: Classicism, ‘Wrenaissance’, Palladio, Ruskin, Pugin, Inigo Jones, Wren. In the latter half of nineteenth-century Britain, the Gothic Revival was well underway. Fuelled by the writings of Augusutus Welby Northmore Pugin (1812-52) and John Ruskin (1819-1900), it was a reaction against the rapid industrialisation and urbanisation of the country and a return to a simpler, decent life, where craft was properly valued, all rooted in the idealised values of religious communities of medieval England. Architecture was perceived as the ‘mother of the arts’, and offered opportunities for architects, craftsmen, and artists to collaborate. At a time of rampant colonialism, Gothic was also heralded as a national style; a beacon of Britishness in a rapidly changing world.

  • From Blavatsky to Krishnamurti: Hindu Chronology, Biblical Eschatology, Physiology Al Boag
    From Blavatsky to Krishnamurti: Hindu Chronology, Biblical Eschatology, Physiology Al Boag Introduction A number of the published works of Jiddu Krishnamurti (1895-1986) carry a concise biographical statement of his guardianship as a youth by Annie Besant, President of the Theosophical Society at Adyar, Madras. She and her colleague C.W. Leadbeater “believed that Krishnamurti was the vehicle for the Messiah whose coming the Theosophists had predicted.”1 The Order of the Star in the East was formed in 1911, with its members dedicated to preparing mankind for the predicted coming of the new Messiah and World Teacher. However, Krishnamurti dissolved the Order in 1929 and resigned from the Society in 1930. Until his death on 17 February 1986, Krishnamurti travelled the world declaring that truth could not be found through any sect or religion, but only by freeing oneself from all forms of conditioning belief. This article reveals that the notion of prediction promoted by Besant and Leadbeater concerning Krishnamurti‟s role was their adaptation of an esoteric interpretation of extra-biblical and biblical eschatologies held by H.P. Blavatsky, co-founder of the Society. Two associated primary influences that pervade Krishnamurti‟s teachings, which have gone unnoticed by supporters and detractors alike, are, firstly, the element of esoteric Christianity within the framework of the Path of Initiation that had been his training under Besant and Leadbeater. This is not to deny the fusion of esoteric Hinduism and Buddhism that went with that. The unnoticed second element is an occult practice that was a secret teaching of the Path of Initiation intended to bring about a direct consciousness of one‟s divinity and the shortening of one‟s cycle of incarnations.
