"A guest am I
In this world of transient things,
Unfettered by the entanglements thereof.
I am of no country, No boundaries hold me."
- The Immortal Friend, 1928
J.Krishnamurti, whose life and teachings spanned the greater part of the 20th century, is regarded by many as one who has had the most profound impact on human consciousness in modern times. Sage, philosopher and thinker, he illumined the lives of millions the world over: laymen and intellectuals, young and old. He gave new meaning and content to religion by pointing to a way of life that transcends all organized religions. He confronted boldly the problems of contemporary society and analyzed with scientific precision, the workings of the human mind. Declaring that his only concern was to ‘set man absolutely, unconditionally free’, he sought to liberate man from his deep conditioning of selfishness and sorrow.
"As the rains come
To a parched land,
So, O World,
Do I come
With the scent of my love."
- The Song of Life, 1931
