عن المؤلف
Uppaluri Gopala Krishnamurti, commonly known as U.G. Krishnamurti, was a notable Indian philosopher and writer who challenged the conventional frameworks of spirituality and enlightenment. Born on July 9, 1918, in Masulipatnam, India, he became a significant figure in contemporary philosophy, especially in the context of understanding human consciousness and the quest for spiritual transcendence. His most recognized work, ‘The Mystique of Enlightenment’, provides an unorthodox perspective on the subject of enlightenment, one that diverges from traditional religious and philosophical teachings. U.G. Krishnamurti’s literary style is characterized by its blunt, no-nonsense approach, where he conveys his ideas with a refreshing directness devoid of conventional spiritual jargon. He was not aligned with any specific philosophical school or tradition, which makes his work unique and sometimes controversial. His critique of the commercialization of spirituality and the myth-making surrounding the concept of enlightenment has been both celebrated and debated within philosophical and spiritual circles. Krishnamurti passed away on March 22, 2007, but his work continues to provoke thought and inspire those who seek an alternative view of the nature of human consciousness and the existential realities of life.
