KRISHNAMURTI AND SPIRITUALITY - A COMMENT ON WREN-LEWIS VIEW

The purpose of this article is to point out that in his reflections on Krishnamurti, Wren-Lewis (1994) has (a) uncritically accepted as sour ce material a highly suspect narrative, (b) misrepresented Krishnamurt i's notion of spiritual transformation, (c) unjustifiably attributed u nethical conduct to him, and (d) proposed an approach for assessing sp iritual progress that is at variance with Krishnamurti's teaching. A m ore sympathetic reading of Krishnamurti's life and work yields differe nt results.
