Who are we to judge Krishnamurti.  He has helped far more souls with insight into their lower self, than ever Besant and Leadbeater did.

My views are:

I can only disagree with such a kind of teaching. That is all.
I am perfectly aware of the Non-dual teachings through my own experiences.

Why do you and others keep up this farce and emotionally oriented 
Kirshnamurti cult?
Why is the following not enough to show everyone at the TS, where the J. 
Krishnamurti teachings belong?

The total denial and rejection

Theosophist Magazine September 1932-December 1932
I presume the T.S. accepts it as its duty to promulgate Theosophy and not to 
spread or air of other philosophies; if the former why does it undertake 
propaganda for the teachings of Krishnamurti? If the latter, why call itself 
the Theosophical Society? This is sailing under false colours and is 
dishonest to humanity. The facts are, that one cannot go to any T.S. Lodge 
meeting without hearing about, seeing the books of Krishnamurti. What 
service is that to mankind- what service is rendered to Theosophy? It can 
only do one thing and that is to help fog and cloud the student and help to 
make his efforts to learn Theosophy a hundred times more difficult. 
Kirshnamurti himself is absolutely honest....

In the Star Bulletin August 1931, Page 7 - J. Krishnamurti says:
" So I have made it prefectly clear that what is generally believed by the 
Christian, the Theosophist, the Hindu, the Buddhist to be Truth, has nothing 
in common with what I say"

NOTHING?
As Theosophy shows the Truth to be the underlying Principles of the 
Christian, the Hindu, the Buddhist, we are prefectly clear in having nothing 
in common with J. Krishnamurti. Then why in the name of the Higher Self does 
the T.S. persist in propaganda on behalf of Krishnamurti?

Morten,
The Pre- Christian Mandaeans ended all their works with "And Life is 
Victorious!" . Even back then they knew what you are unwilling to accept from 
the lips of Krishnamurti. My suggestion is read the Abidharma which fills 
the words of Krishnamurti that you qoute and which H. P. B. herself also 
taught as she was taught. Again Krishnamurti speaks in the language of the 
Non-dual until Theosphists bring themselves to exposure to the Non-Dual 
School they will always be left to the conditioned mind and it's prejudices. 
Just my personal perception of the situational source and causes.

Regards,
John

Dear Cass and all readers

My views are:

Nobody said that he was only adressing Annie Besant in his speech.
And the fact that he allowed to be called Maitreya - World Teacher for at 
least 4 years if not for 18 years without really counter-acting it - aught 
to tell you something.

Even Geoffrey Hodson said that J. Krishnamurti was promoted as Maitreya - 
World Teacher at the Star Camp in Ommen - and that J. Krishnamurti was aware 
of this.

And what about the following?:

J. Krishnamurti said:
"I know that which I am; I know my purpose in life because I am Life itself 
without name, without limitation. And because I am Life I would urge you to 
worship that Life, not in this form that is Krishnamurti but the Life which 
dwells in each one of you. Put aside all the paraphernalia of beliefs, 
religions and ceremonies, and you will find the Truth."
http://jiddu- krishnamurti. net/en/1928- let-understandin g-be-the- law/jiddu- krishnamurti- let-understandin g-be-the- law-07.php

I think it speak for it self.

He never really denied not yet being realised as a Maitreya. Please, tell 
me - Is there any place where he denies being the Maitreya World-Teacher?
I wonder if Annie Besant and C. W. Leadbeater raised him like this because 
they themselves never admitted errors?

At least H. P. Blavatsky and others - myself included are ready to admit 
errors when we can perceive them.

I am sure you must have a mental block on this issue.  You have made 
clear what Besant/Leadbeater wanted, but in Krishnamurti' s own mouth we hear 
that he never took on the robe of World Teacher operating through 
Maitreya. 
 
The essence from J. Krishnamurti' s "dissolving" is this:
"As I said, YOU (BESANT)  have been preparing for eighteen years 
for me. I do not care if you (BESANT) believe that I am the World-Teacher or 
not. That is of very little importance. Since you (BESANT) belong to the 
organization of the Order of the Star, you have given your sympathy, your 
energy, acknowledging that Krishnamurti is the World-Teacher --(NOT ME, YOU, 
BESANT)  partially or wholly: wholly for those who are really seeking, 
only partially for those who are satisfied with their own half-truths 
(BESANT'S HALF TRUTHS)

You (BESANT)  have been preparing for eighteen years, and look how many 
difficulties there are in the way of your (BESANT'S)understan ding, how many 
complications, how many trivial things. Your(BESANTS) prejudices, your 
fears, your authorities, your churches new and old -- all these, I maintain, 
are a barrier to understanding. I cannot make myself clearer than this. I do 
not want you to agree with me, I do not want you to follow me, I want you to 
understand what I am saying."  (I AM NOT MAITREYA/WORLD TEACHER).
 
Can't you see this is BESANT'S dream for Krishnamurti and not his own.???

To all readers

My views are:

Allright Cass.
Here we go...

1.
There you are, - J. Krishnamurti said:

"I know that which I am; I know my purpose in life because I am Life itself 
without name, without limitation. And because I am Life I would urge you to 
worship that Life, not in this form that is Krishnamurti but the Life which 
dwells in each one of you. Put aside all the paraphernalia of beliefs,

law/jiddu- krishnamurti- let-understandin g-be-the- law-07.php

2.
J. Krishnamurti as a World Teacher allowed false teachings:

The fact that J. Krishnamurti as a World Teacher allowed the following tells 
me, that he was not caring about the Theosophical Society as it was given by 
H. P. Blavatsky.

"What happened to the Theosophical Society, through the years, under the 
guidance of Mrs. Besant, became abundantly clear during a "Star" Congress 
held at Ommen, Holland, in 1925.

That this event should have taken place in the year that was the fiftieth 
anniversary of the founding of the Theosophical Movement, and on August 11, 
the anniversary of H.P.B.'s birth, only throws into greater relief the 
almost immeasurable departure from the original spirit of the Movement, to 
which Mrs. Besant had led her faithful followers. The purpose of the 
Congress was to further the "Krishnamurti" cult, for this young Hindu had 
been burdened by Mrs. Besant with the task of "saving the world." In her 
opening address, which teems with supernaturalism and breathless references 
to personages like "the Nameless One" and "Lords of the Fire," she told her 
listeners:
And now I have to give you, by command of the King, His message, and some of 
the messages of the Lord Maitreya
and His great Brothers. . . what I am saying, as to matter of announcement, 
is definitely at the command of the King whom I serve.
His taking possession of His chosen vehicle . . . will be soon. Then He will 
choose, as before, His twelve apostles . . . and their chief, the Lord 
Himself. He has already chosen them, but I have only the command to mention 
seven who have reached the stage of Arhatship,
Who were the "Arhats"?
The first two [Mrs. Besant continued), my brother Charles Leadbeater and 
myself, . . . C. Jinarajadasa, . . . George Arundale,
Oscar Kollerstrom, . . . Rukmini Arundale,
I left out one and must leave out another. Naturally, our Krishnaji was one, 
but he is to be the vehicle of the Lord. And the other is one who is very 
dear to all of us, as to the whole Brotherhood: Bishop James Wedgwood. He 
had borne his crucifixion before the seal of Arhatship was set upon him by 
his King.
Those are the first seven of the twelve whom He has chosen, with Himself as 
the thirteenth. "Ye call me Master and Lord, and ye do well, for so I am." .
Now the wonder may come into your mind: H.P.B. was the only one who was 
really announced as the messenger of the Master. Since then the world has 
grown a good deal, and it is possible that while the few may be repelled, 
many thousands will be attracted to the Christ. . . . Whatever the effect, 
since He has said it, it is done. . . "
( http://www.phx- ult-lodge. org/theosophica% 20lmovement. htm )

M. Sufilight comments:
Now J. Krishnamurti allowed these words to be accepted to at least 4 years 
if not 18 years before he did something to at least counter them. I guess J. 
Krishnamurti was not a World Teacher yet. And not even capeable of 
protesting to such a scheme. Later J. Krishnamurti was against G. Arundales 
leadership of the TS, and stayed very much away from the TS almost until 
Radha Burnier came into the drivers seat. A World Teacher staying away from 
the TS, which was given by the Masters. And World Teacher who almost never 
talked about the Master Morya and Koot Hoomi. And when he did it was just to 
bash their value and to promote himself!

4.
Comments about the socalled Messiah J. Krishnamurti:

We all remember, that to be a member of the Theosophical Society in the 
early J. Krishnamurti days one also had to be a member of The Order of the 
Star in the East. So When dissolving The Order of the Star in the East, the 
TS was also dissolved and did he dissolve his status as Maitreya - World 
Teacher?

The essence from J. Krishnamurti' s "dissolving" is this:
"As I said, you have been preparing for eighteen years for me. I do not care 
if you believe that I am the World-Teacher or not. That is of very little 
importance. Since you belong to the organization of the Order of the Star, 
you have given your sympathy, your energy, acknowledging that Krishnamurti 
is the World-Teacher -- partially or wholly: wholly for those who are really 
seeking, only partially for those who are satisfied with their own 
half-truths.

You have been preparing for eighteen years, and look how many difficulties 
there are in the way of your understanding, how many complications, how many 
trivial things. Your prejudices, your fears, your authorities, your churches 
new and old -- all these, I maintain, are a barrier to understanding. I 
cannot make myself clearer than this. I do not want you to agree with me, I 
do not want you to follow me, I want you to understand what I am saying."
....
"So why have an organization? "
....
" I do not want you to agree with me, I do not want you to follow me, I want 
you to understand what I am saying."

(From "Truth is a Pathless Land by J. Krishnamurti" - http://www.tphta. 
ws/TPH_TIPL. HTM)

- - - - - - -

All this, is more than enough to me.

5.
Mary Lutyens told about J. Krishnamurti' s views:
"He was quoted in Mary Lutyens book as saying to the general secretary of 
the Theosophical Society for
Wales, the following statement: "He told us that he had never been able to 
read a Theosophical book in His life -
could not understand our Theosophical jargon and, although he had heard many 
Theosophical lectures, none of
them had convinced him of their knowledge or truth.""

Other similar lecturers was around in the 1920'ies and later. Just try Paul

I am not a Mason. You linked the Co-Masons with Krishnamurti. I pointed out 
that if Krishnamurti was against all gurus, why would a/c to you, he or his 
followers advocate a co-mason/theosophic connection. Gobbledegook is 
speaking without thinking about it first. Whether you accept it or not, 
Krishnamurti was a world teacher, perhaps not the kind you were seeking out, 
but nevertheless he brought a new way of thinking about the Ego/Id to the 
world, only previously known by followers of Theosophy or Gurdgieff.

Krishnamurti followed his own path, he had a right to choose whether or not 
he would take on Besant/Leadbeater dreams of heralding in a Maitreya.

In the closing of 1900 letter, Master KH says:

"The T.S. was meant to be the corner_stone of the future religions of
humanity. To accomplish this object those who lead must leave aside their
weak predilections for the forms and ceremonies of any particular creed and
show themselves to be true Theosophists both in inner thoughts and outward
observance. The greatest of your trials is yet to come. We watch over you
but you must put forth all your strength."
===xxx===

MKR: Is the reference to "forms and ceremonies" include that of Co-Masonry?
I wonder. The Master's emphasis on being a true Theosophists both in inner
thoughts and outward observance, is also significant. The outside world see
what we do and hence it has an impact on how they perceive theosophy.

I wish some of the theosophical leaders are participants here and respond to
questions like this so that the we are all clear in our minds.
