The Beginnings of Learning by J Krishnamurti

Krishnamurti, who founded schools in India, the USA and England to further his beliefs, presents lively and often intimate exchanges on practical and philosophical issues in the interests of teaching children to meet educational demands without conforming to conventional values. 'The subjects range from learning how to sit still with a quiet mind to coping with individuals - or discovering how to live sanely in an insane world' Sunday Telegraph 'Many of the discussions are concerned with a highly relevant problem: how to help children to meet the educational demands of their society without conforming to its conventional values' Observer

Born in southern India in 1895, Krishnamurti was 'discovered' as a young boy on a beach by members of the Theosophical Society, who were convinced that they had found a New World Leader and spiritual saviour. Throughout his lifetime Krishnamurti insisted that he wanted no followers and refused to create any kind of organisation for those who wished to follow his teachings. He died in California in 1986, leaving a legacy of over 70 books and hundreds of audio and video recordings.
