Life in Freedom by Jiddu Krishnamurti is a compilation of early addresses given in Benares, Ojai, and Ommen during 1928. Freedom, as Krishnamurti puts it is not the end but the beginning, the beginning of life in reality.
The book focuses on the theme of personal and spiritual freedom, urging individuals to break free from societal constraints, religious dogmas, and psychological conditioning. Krishnamurti explores the idea of living without fear, the importance of self-knowledge, and how true freedom can only be achieved by shedding the external influences that shape one’s mind and life. His central message is that spiritual enlightenment and true happiness come from within and are not dictated by external authorities or traditions.
Krishnamurti, throughout his life, encouraged individuals to question everything, including religious beliefs, and to live in a state of constant awareness. This book reflects his deep commitment to personal and collective transformation. From the book:
“If you find truth you must put aside all those things upon which you have leaned for support and look within for that everlasting spring. It cannot be brought to you through any outward channel.” -J. KRISHNAMURTI, Life in Freedom.

J. Krishnamurti on the question about freedom
I have been reading the works and talks of His Highness J.Krishnamurthy since my early student life (last over 45 years).Like his personality, his words too lit my heart. I deeply feel indebted to this Great Enlightened Soul of Mother Earth Gifted the Humanity.
