Commonly Raised Objections
Richard is Attacking Jiddu Krishnamurti

|
In a sense you can therefore say, that I am defending J. Krishnamurti, while Richard is
attacking him.
|
|
All you have done so far is to bitch about ‘Mr. Jiddu Krishnamurti’. When you began to
define Krishnamurti’s ‘enlightenment’ in your own terms, I began to sense some superiority and competition, so I
lost interest. Otherwise, I am not inclined to play this ‘debunking game’ with you.

I will give you only one example here of your distorted interpretation: You wrote:
‘I was merely following the precedent that Mr. Jiddu Krishnamurti himself set. He consistently referred to all his
words as ‘Teachings’.’ And then you go on: ‘As these words came from a source that he described as ‘that which
is sacred, holy’, it is clear that he was bringing some unknown god’s wisdom to earth’. This is nonsense. There is
no unknown god, and Krishnamurti never brings God in as the ground from which he is talking. There is nothing
mystical here, nothing from some religious authority, nothing in a dimension that is other worldly. Contrary to what you
have said, Krishnamurti never says that he has a Soul, a Self. This is why it is important to read a person with some
sensitivity and care before criticising. This is why it is important to read a person with some sensitivity and care
