The story of Krishnamurti, one of the 20th century's most influential and controversial spiritual figures, takes place in the crucible of sexual scandal, mysticism, and an extraordinary personal history.
Discovered as a young boy in the early years of the 20th century, Krishnamurti was proclaimed a new world leader by members of the Theosophical Society and, by the 1920s, was attracting world wide press attention. Idealists, spiritual adventurers, intellectuals and philosophers flocked to his talks.
