Summary:

Here is a collection of writings and talks from one of the most important spiritual teachers of the twentieth century. Most of the material collected here has never before been available to the public. To Be Human presents what Krishnamurti himself described as the "core" of his teaching. The book will help readers to: -- understand what Krishnamurti meant when he said that "the word is not the thing"-- explore the concept of "observing without the observed"-- learn the importance of meeting what is new, unknown, and unpredictable with total attention to learn

Krisnamurti's teaching confronts the reader with insights that continually unfold and deepen. This new collection will be treasured by students of Krishnamurti as well as spiritual seekers from a variety of backgrounds.
