What was the core of Krishnamurti's teaching philosophy?

  • Material wealth

  • Academic excellence

  • Total freedom from all authority

  • Becoming a world leader

Answer

The core of Krishnamurti's teaching philosophy is total freedom from all authority. He believed that the only way to achieve true enlightenment is to free oneself from the mental conditioning that is imposed on us by society and culture. This can only be done through a process of self-enquiry, in which we examine our own thoughts and beliefs and see them for what they are - illusions.
