  • How can Communities count more in Development Choices

  • Role of Aid and opinion on foreign aid  We now live in a global world, so we must not distinguish anymore between foreign aid and local aid. What is important is to understand how aid must be given. In cases of emergency, aid surely provides immediate relief, but it should not lead the receiver to be a parasite on society. If instead we can educate them stand... on their own legs, we have really helped them. Aid as Aspirin has value but as a cure for the disease has no value. Long term help is in the form of Education.

Krishnamurti Foundation India,

During Krishnamurti's lifetime, Foundations in the USA, England, India, and Latin America came into being to arrange his travel and organize his public talks, publish his books, and run the institutions founded by him.

Krishnamurti Foundation India (KFI) was set up in 1928 as a charitable institution by Krishnamurti under the name of The Rishi Valley Trust. The name was changed to the Foundation for New Education in 1953 and then to the Krishnamurti Foundation India in 1970.

The activities of the Foundation include the preservation and dissemination of his teachings, the running of schools, environmental conservation, rural education and health care

About J. Krishnamurti

J. Krishnamurti (1895-1986) is regarded the world over now as one of the greatest religious teachers of all times. For nearly sixty years he travelled all over the world, pointing out to people the need to transform themselves through self knowledge by being aware of their thoughts and feelings in daily life. And he held that this can be done only in the mirror of relationship. He maintained that a new society can emerge only through a radical change in the individual. His concern for humanity found expression in the founding of schools where children were not only nurtured for academic excellence but also helped to explore the fundamental questions of life.
