Jiddu Krishnamurti at 25
A young Jiddu Krishnamurti. An enlightened teacher, who taught what many consider “Advaita”, or the jnana Marga, The way of the mind.
He followed no rituals, taught no mantras or ceremonies, accepted no dietiefied God.
His main teaching was about the workings of the mind, “The observer is the observed”. That there is no differentiation in consciousness. That all was one. The perciever , the percieving and the perrcieved.
He was found by the Theospohical society who hailed him as the Maitreya Buddha and groomed him during his childhood. However he lost his brother Nityananda as a kid while with the theosophical society, which made him go through a serious re-thinking about the supposed Buddhahood.
Coming into his own in his youth, he dismissed the Maitreya and taking charge of the new order. He travelled the world teaching Awareness.
