Other Side of Belief

Described as the thinker who shuns thought, U.G. Krishnamurti is the most enigmatic and iconoclastic anti-guru of our times. His conviction that doubt is the other side of belief emerged from an uncompromising negation of everything that can be expressed, not from a desire for some comfy dialectical thesis . The Other Side of Belief: Interpreting U.G. Krishnamurti is a candid and refreshing chronicle of UG s life and the evolution of his radical outlook and ideas. Tracing the development of UG s notion of enlightenment as a series of biological mutations devoid of mystical or religious connotations, Mukunda Rao weaves a complex portrait of a man who doesn t hesitate to challenge and demolish society s most cherished and comforting values and ideals, but nonetheless commands a most fervent respect and veneration from multitudes of admirers.Rao, Mukunda is the author of 'Other Side of Belief', published 2005 under ISBN 9780144000357 and ISBN 0144000350.
