“There is a man emerging today in contrast to all that is confusing, suspicious, pedantic and enslaving: Krishnamurti. Here is a man of our time who can be said to be a master of reality. It's unique." -Henry Miller

In 1950 Krishnamurti said: "Only when the mind does not flee is it possible to be in direct communion with that which we call loneliness, and for such communion to exist, there must be affection, there must be love."

About love and loneliness is one of the most fascinating books by its author. It is a compelling investigation about our intimate relationships, both with ourselves and with others and with society. Krishnamurti suggests that a "true relationship" can only be born when there is self-knowledge, knowledge of the conditions that divide and isolate individuals and groups. Only by renouncing the "I" can we decipher the enigma of loneliness and achieve love.
