A meeting with J. Krishnamurti

[Guest guest]

Since I consider J. Krishanmurti as not being so far away from the

non-dual stream, I would relate the following story :

It was in 1982 I believe, in Switzerland, after a group meeting with

J. Krishnamurti.

Time came to say goodbye. I noticed how others very respectfully and

others more in the state of 'touching the master, goodie goodie' were

taking turns to shake his hand and say good bye.

For what it seemed an eternity, I was in a conflict.. between my

wish to touch this being and the other inner voice saying 'what

bull...., playing the guru game after all, eh ?!"

 

And while I was going around like a mouse trapped in a cage (there

was only one door,.. and he was standing there) suddenly I saw the

situation in a sober way.. just saying goodbye to someone one has

spent time together with.. no fuss, no "shaktipat" thoughts of

expectations and other glorious and pink astral emotions.

I was the last one in queue,.. so..No way out!..- I walked towards

him.. shook his hand and said thank you for this time & good bye..

"Yeees sir.." he said.

That's all, on the visually apparent level.

 

In those few seconds, Also the following happened :

He took my hand, and with his other hand my elbow,..it felt as if my

whole being and its contents were being shaken "in place".. a current

of quite a high speed, passed on thru rest of body from hand, head,

toes.. it was like a good & instant shower.. he loked into my eyes,..

I've never seen such dark, deep, large eyes !.. as a space with no

end, and this to-the-eye invisible floods of love, pouring out of his

eyes.. (and some people call him 'dry' and 'intellectual' ?!?)..

I was standing there hardly being prepared for all of that,.. and

this little men (he did not reach higher than my chest area) was

definetily felt by me, that he was about 4 times taller than me...

 

Since it all happened so quickly, only when I stepped out of the

roon, I realized what has happened.

 

I've had a few buzzes from other gurus (before I met JK.), but not as

delicate/subtle, clean and sober as this one.

 

He was a rare one !

I've read that he said himself (in spite that he hardly ever talked

about this kind of mystical stuff) that there will not be another

like him for another 500 years,.. the reason for this being the

necessity for a body that can withstand the enormous volume of energy

that passed thru his body.

He never talked about things such as Kundalini.

 

My mind, at times, throws up the the question: does such an

encounter, leave some kind of a 'seed' in one , or is it just

another 'wow'- experience ?

I'll probably never know,..

and probably it does not matter either.

He just gave it! That was Shaktipat.

Did your life change after that in any way?
