J. Krishnamurti's literary legacy in the form of talks, discussions, and writings is remarkable for its sheer variety and vastness. In 1980, Krishnamurti wrote, on request, a one-page summary of his work, which he himself referred to as the 'core' of his teachings. The present compilation starts with this summary and follows it with a selection of passages of an amplifying kind. The editor takes the major aspects of Krishnamurti's teachings and puts together extensive passages to expand on such themes as: truth is a pathless land man has built in himself images as a fence of security freedom is found in the choiceless awareness of our daily existence and activity thought is time and time is the psychological enemy of man.
