Can The Mind Be Quiet? by J. Krishnamurti

Product Details

About the Book

Can The Mind Be Quiet? Living, Learning and Meditation brings together sixty previously unpublished conversations by J. Krishnamurti, one of the most influential philosophical and spiritual thinkers of the twentieth century. Compiled from private dialogues recalled by Krishnamurti in the late 1960s and early 1970s — often dictated to his personal assistant at Brockwood Park School, as well as in Rome, India, and California — the book carries an intimate, unpolished quality rarely found in his other published works.

The book is organized into three parts — living, learning, and meditation — each exploring Krishnamurti's radical approach to everyday existence and inner freedom. Through dialogues with seekers from diverse backgrounds, it addresses profound questions such as whether the mind, so heavily conditioned by centuries of thought, can ever truly unburden itself; what real education means; what virtue and the sacred actually are; and whether the brain can ever become quiet. Rather than offering easy answers, Krishnamurti guides the reader through a process of direct self-inquiry, weaving in his signature poetic descriptions of nature and place alongside piercing philosophical insight.

Written in an enigmatic, contemplative style, Can The Mind Be Quiet? has found a devoted readership among Bangladeshi readers interested in philosophy, meditation, and spirituality — particularly those already familiar with Krishnamurti's teachings, as well as newcomers drawn to reflective, non-prescriptive spiritual writing in the tradition of thinkers like Eckhart Tolle.

About the Author: J. Krishnamurti

Jiddu Krishnamurti (1895–1986) is regarded as one of the greatest philosophical and spiritual figures of the twentieth century. Born in Madanapalle, India, he was raised as a spiritual teacher within the Theosophical Society before later breaking away to pursue an entirely independent path of inquiry, free from organized religion, gurus, or fixed doctrine. Over decades of talks, dialogues, and writings held around the world, he explored the nature of thought, freedom, and consciousness, leaving behind a body of work that continues to shape contemporary spiritual and philosophical thought.
