Book Description
About the Book

When Krishnamurti came to India in November 1985, he was in his ninety-first year. He had returned, in the words of a friend, to 'say goodbye'. Despite his terminal illness, he visited the Rajghat School in Varanasi, the Rishi Valley School in Andhra Pradesh, and Vasanta Vihar in Madras (now Chennai) to give public talks and participate in the discussions with all the vigour and passionate concern of the previous sixty years of his working life. In his last talk, at Vasanta Vihar, he inquired into the origin of life and said: 'Creation is something that is most holy, that is the most sacred thing in life, and if you have made a mess of your life, change it. Change it today, not tomorrow.'

First published in 1988, two years after Krishnamurti's death, THE LAST TALKS is now being brought out as an Expanded Edition, with four additional chapters.

About the Author

J. Krishnamurti (1895-1986) is regarded as one of the greatest philosophers and religious teachers of all time. For more than sixty years he travelled the world over, giving talks and holding dialogues, not as a guru but as a friend. His teachings are not based on book knowledge and theories, and therefore they communicate directly to anyone seeking answers to the present world crisis as well as to the eternal problems of human existence.

Preface

THIS BOOK WAS first published in 1988 in Great Britain by Victor Gollancz Ltd., and in the USA by Harper & Row, under the title The Future is Now. In India it was published by Krishnamurti Foundation India as The Last Talks. This is the second and revised edition of the book, which includes the following four events that had been left out of the first edition:

The First and Third Discussion with the teachers of Rishi Valley School.

The First Educational Conference in Rishi Valley School.

The First Public Talk in Madras.

Introduction

IT WAS KRISHNAMURTI'S last journey to India. He had already stated at Saanen, Switzerland, that there would not be any more talks there; and he had written to a friend:

We have had the most marvellous four days of weather, sunny every day, and the valley is telling us goodbye.
