Krishnamurti Study Group

  Krishnamurti Study Group Saturday, December 17, 2016   On a cold wintery day only two of us showed up for the study session. We read and discussed a chapter from The First and Last Freedom, the Questions and Answers #3: “Why Spiritual Teachers?” K takes up the question as to whether a teacher or guru is necessary and is it possible for truth to be given by another. The text provoked some exploration of the truth and value of absolute statements about such matters. It was an interesting discussion of possible viewpoints and the seeing that all viewpoints and conclusions are limited. K’s emphasis on understanding our motives for wanting a teacher was seen to be very significant. The inquiry brought us to a place of open, spacious looking and being which was felt to be beyond concepts and ideas.
