Happy Is the One Who Is Nothing

Letters to a Young Friend
Letters written between 1948 and 1960 reveal gentle wisdom that soothes physical and mental wounds. Rich in compassion, clarity, and non-dual insight, these personal notes offer healing and reflection, illuminating a path toward inner liberation and self-discovery for those seeking perspective-shifting spirituality.

Life is a razor's edge and one has to walk on that path with exquisite care and with pliable wisdom""  - J Krishnamurti

Between 1948 and the early 1960s, Krishnamurti was easily accessible and many people came to him. On walks, in personal meetings, through letters, the relationships blossomed.

Happy Is the One Who Is Nothing collects together letters to a young friend who came to him wounded in body and mind. The letters, presented here in a beautifully gentle design, were written between June 1948 and March 1960. They reveal a rare compassion and clarity: the teaching and healing unfold; separation and distance disappear; the words flow; not a word is superfluous; the healing and teaching are simultaneous.

Happy Is the One Who Is Nothing is ideal as a gift for any loved one interested in non-duality and perspective-shifting spirituality, or to be treasured on your own shelf.
