What language did Krishnamurti primarily speak in his public talks?

  • French

  • Spanish

  • Hindi

  • English

Answer

English was the primary language that Krishnamurti spoke in his public talks. He was born in India and grew up speaking Tamil, but he learned English at a young age and became fluent in it. He used English as his primary language for his public talks because he wanted to reach a wide audience and because he felt that English was a more universal language than Tamil.
