All these western scholars want to use their knowledge to understand what JK was saying. Unfortunately JK's first step towards the truth was self-inquiry with no knowledge ( illusioned "I") hence they were caught in a paradox therefore off balanced. JK never tried to convert/influence anyone in his whole life. In fact, he was opposing it everytime.

You still don't get it Dr. Do you? JK only lived in the present. When he met you second time, his past exeprience with you didn't distracted him. Because he was living in the present. That's the very essence of his teaching. Left you wondering why he is acting differently. Just get out of your conditioning to see the truth. One wonders how long it would take to realize the truth...

@JMierek if you watch that interview you will see Krishnamurti asking Trungpa what he thinks and so on, trying to get him to respond, because it seems like Trungpa does not want to say much. i got the impression that he was a bit "out of his element" talking to K

Forget Krishnamurti. All subjects aside. It's so great to see this man again talking about what he did in '68. Good on you sir.

@thedarkriver1 There never was a Jiddu to meet.

I wish I could have met Jiddu
People who are heavily conditioned like Huston, cannot understand those like J Krishnamurti who have transcended all cultural-conditioning. The enlightened ones are not supposeto be "understood" in any conventional sense like Huston was aiming for. They no longer indentity as human, but as the ultimate Reality Itself. Huston didn't get it.
