Jiddu Krishnamurti, who passed away on 17 February
1986, was an Indian philosopher, speaker and writer. In his early life he was
groomed to be the new World Teacher but later rejected this mantle and withdrew
from the Theosophy organization behind it. His interests included psychological
revolution, the nature of mind, meditation, inquiry, human relationships, and
bringing about radical change in society. He stressed the need for a revolution
in the psyche of every human being and emphasised that such revolution cannot
be brought about by any external entity, be it religious, political, or social.
