Seeing Is Ending U.G. and the Natural State Sri Aurobindo did not live long enough to complete his spiritual experiments and actualize the ‘supramental’ manifestation, and the task was passed on to the Mother. But she died before the cellular changes were brought to fruition and could find their full expression. The burden of completing the process, it seems, was passed on to U.G. Krishnamurti. Many may find such a reading strange and even problematic. It was certainly not something like passing on the baton in a relay race! However, whether such a reading makes sense or not, the fact remains that, in 1967, five years before the Mother's death, U.G. Krishnamurti walked through that ‘just been opened door’ to undergo a full-scale biological mutation and come into the natural state. Born on 9 July 1918 in Masulipatnam, a town in coastal Andhra Pradesh, U.G. Krishnamurti grew up in a peculiar milieu of both theosophy and Hindu religious beliefs and practices. Exposed to such knowledge...

U.G. Krishnamurti Living with Fire This Is the Way to Die If J. Krishnamurti taught us to doubt and question all forms of authority and belief systems, U.G. Krishnamurti took us deeper into the waters of self-inquiry, into the very heart of the problem, to reveal how even our so-called inquiry, our questions and even our negations, are shaped by the answers we already have. Therefore, he showed us how and why our doubt, too, is only the other side of belief. If J. Krishnamurti knocked off the past and future, and made us focus our attention on the burning present, UG knocked off the present as well, giving us a foretaste of the void. In some way, this profound contrast may remind us of Heraclitus's teaching, which was shown by his disciple to be inadequate, if not false. ‘You cannot step into the same stream twice,’ Heraclitus declared, in response to which his disciple is believed to have said, ‘Sir, you cannot step into the same stream even once.’ Everything UG said or did was th...

Enlightenment Is Physical The Way It Is The Last Days A Human Flower The natural state Aphorisms This has to be on a person-to-person level; you can't do it in a large group. And this is not an interpretation of anybody's teaching; it does not throw new light on anybody's teaching or any spiritual text. I am not putting forth an intellectually constructed set of ideas. It is born out of my own spiritual experience – if I may use the term, for want of a better or more adequate one – that has put an end to the experiencing structure once and for all. ~ Actually, what I am saying here is something you bring out. That what is said here is your property, not mine. The limitations, the frontiers are all gone. It is all one. Whatever is happening here is happening for the whole of human consciousness. You don't have to do a thing. You don't have to start a foundation or a society. It is not for you to preserve the teaching for posterity. ~ I have no teaching. There is noth...
