Commentaries on Living: Second Series
These brief chapters combine descriptions of nature with an examination of basic human psychological problems as these arise in conversation with the many people who came to speak privately with Krishnamurti. The three books of Commentaries on Living are among the easiest of Krishnamurti's books to read even though they discuss the major questions of ambition, the nature of wisdom, fear and what is true action.
