Review: Freedom from the known

This is a review on the book "Freedom from the known" by Jiddu Krishnamurti. I read this book about 2 months ago. This is the one and only book that I read from cover to cover with full concentration. I want to share my experience because this is the most deepest book that I have ever read and it was a challenging experience for me. The book is a philosophical one which includes the subject matters such as freedom, fear, self-centered behaviour of humans and finally meditation. The first part of the book describes about "Freedom". Here the freedom means getting free from all authorities.

Since I respect the teaching profession and also because of my good memorable experience, I wrote that article with pride. I was also in a great arrogance in getting the best teachers not only in my academic life but also in my real life. Now I've completed my PG in Government Engineering College, Wayanad. GEC Wayanad... This is the field from where I learned " what not to be...how not to be.... " Years ago, I believed that a great teacher is the one who make the classroom a playground and who give little homework. My perspective changes as years pass. Now I believe that a teacher along with maintaining his/her professionalism, should definitely have a great character, behavior and attitude. Moreover, he/she should be a good listener. I joined in GECW on September 2014. On the very first day, I met m...
