4.0 out of 5 stars Brutally honest
Recomended for all seekers of the truth, U G here explains with brutal honesty what it is to be awakened. You won't find white lights and bliss in this book but you will find out what it is really like and may want to rethink your intentions. For serious seekers only!

3.0 out of 5 stars GG Allin and Jesus
I found Mahesh Blatt's biography of U.G. Krishnamurti to be a pretty interesting and entertaining read. Although it is written from a personal focus (Blatt is, after all, a film director) and is sometimes bordering on a-bit-too-personal-for-my-taste, it gives a good glimpse on the 'unrational ideas' of U.G.

This review is from: U. G. Krishnamurti: A Life (Paperback)
I found Mahesh Blatt's biography of U.G. Krishnamurti to be a pretty interesting and entertaining read. Although it is written from a personal focus (Blatt is, after all, a film director) and is sometimes bordering on a-bit-too-personal-for-my-taste, it gives a good glimpse on the 'unrational ideas' of U.G. This guy is pretty hard to take, and his attacks on J.Krishnamurti and Rajneesh (Osho) are sure to stir controversy among spiritual aspirants, but I'm getting a hunch that's what's called for. A mix between GG Allin and Jesus; U.G.'s bio would give a good starting point for someone implicitly religious who's not into "bleeding heart spirituality."

1.0 out of 5 stars Prejudice dilutes a wonderful message, February 5, 2001
By A Customer
Chapter "Locking of Horns", is quite unnecessary. I was put-off by the questioner's shallowness in posing a pedestrian question like "..name the most remarkable man you have met". This question gives UG (who is ever so ready!) a chance to cast his prejudiced views on JK.
