At the Feet of the Master, Paperback

This was the first book by the great spiritual teacher, Krishnamurti, written at the age of 14. It was written under the name Alcyone, which is the brightest star in the Pleiades. This name was bestowed upon him because it was thought he would be the next great world teacher and had returned through the reincarnation process. The wisdom in this book is amazing for such a young man, and his later work attests to this natural gift. The book addresses the question, how does one live and walk on a spiritual path? He lays out four qualifications for this path - discrimination, desirelessness, good conduct and love. Each of these topics is taken in turn and the reader is guided through and onto a meaningful spiritual path, at least in a general sense. This book has the potential to change the reader at a very deep level, but each must first listen, learn and act upon the principles shared. This book points clearly to a very powerful path. Walking it, with the wisdom it shares, is the challenge.
