So basically he decided to bash anything and everything that is established. Once you make up your mind to do something like this, i dont see anything special about it, or how it could be hard to do. why do you put this man "U.G." on a pedestal? at least thats what it seems you are doing.

That's not exactly what he was doing.

sounds to me like another wannabe dictator trying to push his own viewpoint on everybody else, if he was so "enlightened" he would be likely to just ignore everybody else and their thoughts, habits, rituals, beliefs, etc. .

Is U.G his actual name, or does it stand for something? I'm interested and wondering if there are any books he wrote?

i thought he frowned upon thought. the use of ones own mind, that we arent intelligent and only animals(in a sense). maybe i just misunderstood.

Destruction is often essential to progress. There is a time to let wrecking ball fly. But who would send a demolision team to wipe out a thriving, vibrant metropolis in order to clear the way for a new one? Who would uproot a healthy fruitbearing orchard in order to re-plant it all over? Sure there are flaws in our social architecture, but that doesn't call for a total reconstruction of the whole thing. I think this U.G. is a walking contradiction, and I get the impression that knows it and that he likes it that way.

seems he needs true evidence of the soul,he only knows what he sees and regards his emotions as simply that.

all i know about him is that in my own very limited readings of krishnamurti, i found him fairly well spoken, but nothing i read particualarly astounded or moved me. i had the sense of much bulk but little substance. lots of words but little meaning.

but thats probably because i wasnt aware enough or my mind was closed or i wasnt prepared to recieve...

Everything I post is fiction.

sorry, i disagree, im glad you found something that is meaningful to you, that is a bonified rarity in itself, but it all sounds to me like anti-enlightenment, which he would probably like to hear...

not for me i know that

i have found a lot of things in my search and i will continue to search and giving up my search for self when i feel so close would seem pretty detrimental at this point, but then again who knows what will be found at the end!

i read over the website and to me his anti enlightenment jabber seemed to be all based on his own wrong notion of enlightenment. his "calamity" is enlightenment, changing the name doesn't do anything. i'm very famaliar with maharshi's teachings and i didn't read anything there which i didn't already learn from maharshi and my own experiences. maharshi constantly emphazises that enlightenment is not something new to attain but is our natural state and is present always. maharshi also says that most spiritual practises and religions are insufficient for reaching enlightenment (although they can be helpful as preparation). he says there are really only 2 ways, one is total surrender and the other is realizing it intellectually through self inquiry. so this doesn not mean you should give up searching, it only means that in order to actually reach enlightenment you must eventually give up on doing anything at all. upon realizing enlightenment you realize that there was nothing to realize. it very paradoxial. anyway this is the same message i have gotten out of many of the spiritual teachings i have read even aside from maharshi's (although i consider his to the best). so what is this guy saying that's new? why does it say his veiws don't fit into any established structures? what is the difference between his views and maharshi's teachings? i see none.
