Roland Vernon succeeds in providing the context for Krishnamurti's writings, adding great depth to my understanding up K's work. This is not an overview of K's philosophy, but rather a biography focused on a better understanding of the development of K's thoughts and writings over time. Excellent.

Discovered as a young boy in the early years of the 20th century, Krishnamurti was proclaimed a new world leader by Members of the Theosophical Society and, by the 1920s, was attracting worldwide press attention. Idealists, spiritual adventurers, intellectuals and philosopher alike flocked to his talks in their thousands, drawn to the idea of a new golden age and an esoteric Eastern saviour. Later Krishnamurti experienced a mysterious conversation, rejected the Theosophical Society that had moulded his identity and began to teach as a secular philosopher of spiritual nature, but with no affiliation to any sect.
