Uppaluri Gopala Krishnamurti
While growing up, I tried to read both Krishnamurties – Jiddu and UG. Probably I was in high school when I got the first book. Our college library had a collection of short essays by various writers on these two personalities and their messages. I didn’t understand a thing! It was like all of your questions bouncing back at you with no answers...! So, I went back to Vivekananda who was easier for my little brain.
As you all probably know, UG died in March 2007. Listen to his parting message. The person asking him questions is Bollywood director Mahesh Bhatt.
Human mind is very random like our life and world. More you try to understand, more meaningless it appears. May be, that was his message??

He was saying that each human body is unique & all the models society puts before us, for us to imitate, like Jesus, Buddha, whomever you choose, is choking our uniqueness. That you must be free of these models & influences.

I've read many things about UG. He questions every tradition. There were quite a few 'intellectuals' in Kerala who loved UG.

UG was really pathetic. May God have mercy on him, if He possibly can now that his fate is sealed.
this is the image of hopelessness and darkness,so this was Mahesh Bhatt 's icon.
