As the title of this book indicates, Total Freedom: The Essential Krishnamurti is both an introduction to Krishnamurti’s teachings and an essential, extensive collection. It includes selections that range from his early works to the talks he gave before his death, besides excerpts from his well-known books; these consist of talks, writings, and dialogues.

Violence, Krishnamurti says, ‘is like a stone dropped in a lake: the waves spread and spread; at the centre is the “me”. As long as the “me” survives in any form, very subtly or grossly, there must be violence.’ The book contains authentic reports of talks and discussions in 1970 in Santa Monica, San Diego, London, Brockwood Park (England) and Rome.
