Was Krishnamurti’s Anti-Guru Stance Just Another Clever Authority Move?
I’ve spent a lot of time reflecting on Krishnamurti, and, to be honest, I’ve come to a controversial conclusion. While his message was about freedom from authority, isn’t it ironic that he became an authority himself, with books, talks, and institutions? Could his rejection of being a guru have been a clever way to draw people in, reverse psychology, perhaps? I’m not saying this lightly, but could he have been, in some sense, a grifter? Would love to hear everyone’s thoughts—am I missing something?
