A leading spiritual teacher of our century cuts away symbols and false associations in the search for pure truth and perfect freedom. The freedom of which Krishnamurti writes is the breaking of the debilitating, consuming concern with the self. Once people find this first freedom, they are liberated from the unfulfilling and destructive obsessions of society. In 'The First and Last Freedom', the discussion ranges wide – on suffering, on fear, on gossip, on sex, among other topics – but continually returns to this core concept of freedom.
