HOW TO FIND PEACE

Living in a Challenging World

Now available for the first time in book form, this collection brings together Krishnamurti’s informal talks and speeches on war, politics and global unrest.

Covering talks from Brussels to Mumbai, and San Diego to Colombo, this collection reveals a lesser-known side of Krishnamurti: his reflections with the state of the world. While he’s best known for his guidance on meditation and inner awareness, here he explores how we should live, respond and act in a world torn apart by conflict, decline and degradation

These selected writings provide clarity and a call to meaningful action. In uncertain times, his words feel like a conversation with a wise elder who speaks with honesty, calm and hope.
Jiddu Krishnamurti lived from 1895 to 1986, and is regarded as one of the greatest philosophical and spiritual figures of the twentieth century. He claimed no allegiance to any caste, nationality or religion and was bound by no tradition. For nearly sixty years he travelled the world and spoke spontaneously to large audiences until the end of his life in 1986 at the age of ninety.
