MAGNITUDE OF THE MIND (Talks in Sri Lanka, 1980)  (Paperback, Jiddu Krishnamurti)

Magnitude of the Mind - When Krishnamurti was invited to Sri Lanka in 1980, he was given a rousing reception by the Government as well as by the common people since the Buddhists in that country, and elsewhere too, had always regarded him as a modern Buddha. He gave a series of four public talks to a large audience, and these form the contents of this book. The terrible crisis in the outer world, as well as in the personal life of each human being, and man's eternal quest for something beyond all these, which formed the core of Krishnamurti's concern, find lucid expression in this book, which makes for a simple and quick introduction to the vast range of his teachings.
