Here is some additional interesting info.

After K's "Truth is a Pathless Land" speech and his disbanding all organizations
he was heading or set up for his work, Annie Besant still had 100% belief that he
is doing the right thing.

1. At about that time Annie Besant, to the surprise and shock of many devoted
theosophist, suspended the Esoteric Section for a year. She was the "outer" head
of the ES.

2. It is reported that Annie Besant had issued instructions to keep the
rooms/residence K used to live, to be kept vacant so that at any time in future if
K decides to come back to Adyar and stay, it was available. It appears that it was
kept so vacant till K died in 1986.

3. Two (or three) books on  K's lectures/discussions are still published by TPH.

4. You do not see any more books on K's lectures published by TPH because sometime
in 1970s or so he had left written instructions that none of his material should
be published by any entity with which any of the trustees of Krishnamurti Trust
were then connected or involved in the future.

So all of us can conclude what we want to.
