Re: Krishnamurtian Dogma?

Dear Cass,

I know next to nothing about Gurdgieff.

But a long standing leader of the Adyar Society gave me an image to define Krishnamurti with few words: he is like the typical Indian Swami, who goes about hammering one sole point, surrounded by his own unconditional supporters and worshippers. The main role of these followers is to endlessly repeat the Swami's words, while they try to hipnotize themselves and others with these same unchanging words/ideas.


Best regards.

Perhaps rather than creating his own dogma, it was created around him. Same thing with Gurdgieff???

Cass,

Yet he created his own Krishhamurtian dogma.
Krishnamurtians usually don't read authors other than him.
They are usually not open to debate -- at least some of them.
Not all, of course.

Best -- carlos.
