The Mystique of Enlightenment

U.G. Krishnamurti

If you enjoy Jed McKenna’s books you might also enjoy reading U.G. Krishnamurti’s: The Mystique of Enlightenment . If I had to guess I would say that Krishnamurti’s book had a major Influence on Jed... Jed even recommends this book. The author uses some of the same in your face techniques that Jed is famous for. The Mystique of Enlightenment is very over the edge stuff.. Not your ordinary tale of blissful enlightenment. Krishnamurti’s description of his dying and rebirth is fascinating. His meeting with Ramana Maharshi and the question he asks and the answer he receives sets the tone for the whole book. Part memoir and part spiritual travelogue.. it is written with biting humor and, as Jed’s books do, destroys many of the myths of the true spiritual path.
