This is the first diary of Jiddu Krishnamurti, a unique document in his literary production. Unlike his previous works, which are based on transcripts of talks and lectures, this diary reveals his deepest personal experiences. Written from June 1961 in New York, it contains precise annotations on his perceptions and states of consciousness. Mary Lutyens points out in the preface that Krishnamurti wrote in pencil with clarity and hardly any corrections.
The diary is a source of Krishnamurti's rich teaching, offering a fresh and spontaneous perspective. In it, he describes how each day brings something new, a quality, a nuance, a perfume; how the trees, the mountains, the rivers, the clouds, the sunlight, the birds and the flowers are always new. Every day, life begins again and the world is reborn.
Jiddu Krishnamurti was an Indian spiritual figure, speaker, and writer. Adopted by members of the Theosophical Society as a child, Krishnamurti was raised to fill the mantle of the prophesied World Teacher, a role tasked with aiding humankind's spiritual evolution. In 1922, he began to suffer from painful, seizure-like mystical episodes that would produce a lasting change in his perception of reality. In 1929, he broke from the Theosophy movement and disbanded the Order of the Star in the East which had been formed around him. He spent the rest of his life speaking to groups and individuals around the world, hoping to contribute a radical transformation of mankind.
