1954 book by Jiddu Krishnamurti
is a book by 20th century Indian philosopher Jiddu Krishnamurti (18951986). Originally published in 1954 with a comprehensive foreword by Aldous Huxley, it was instrumental in broadening Krishnamurti's audience and exposing his ideas. It was one of the first Krishnamurti titles in the world of mainstream, commercial publishing, where its success helped establish him as a viable author. The book also established a format frequently used in later Krishnamurti publications, in which he presents his ideas on various interrelated issues, followed by discussions with one or more participants. As of 2022 several editions of the work had been published, in print and digital media.

Өмірбаян
1980 жылы Дүниежүзілік мұғалімдер жобасын таратып, Джидду Кришнамурти тәуелсіз, дәстүрлі емес философ ретінде жаңа халықаралық сөз сөйлеу жолына түсті. Екінші дүниежүзілік соғыс кезінде ол Калифорния штатындағы Охайдағы үйінде, салыстырмалы оқшаулықта болды. Ағылшын жазушысы Алдус Хаксли жақын жерде тұрды; ол 1938 жылы Кришнамуртимен танысып, екеуі жақын дос болды. Хаксли Кришнамуртиді жазуға ынталандырды, сондай-ақ оның еңбектерін Хакслидің баспасы Харперге ұсынды. Бұл нәтижесінде Кришнамурти баспаның авторлар тізіміне енді; осыған дейін Кришнамуртидің шығармалары көбінесе шағын немесе арнайы баспаларда, немесе Кришнамуртимен байланысты түрлі ұйымдардың өздері шығарып келген.
Following his dismantling of the World Teacher Project in , Jiddu Krishnamurti embarked on a new international speaking career as an independent, unconventional philosopher. During World War II he remained at his residence in Ojai, California, in relative isolation. English author Aldous Huxley lived nearby; he met Krishnamurti in 1938, and the two men became close friends. Huxley encouraged Krishnamurti to write, and also introduced his work to Harper, Huxley's own publisher. This eventually led to the addition of Krishnamurti in the publisher's roster of authors; until that time Krishnamurti works were published by small or specialist presses, or in house by a variety of Krishnamurti related
Жариялану тарихы
Кітап алғаш рет 1954 жылдың мамыр айында АҚШ-та Harper, ал Ұлыбританияда Gollancz баспаларында жарық көрді. АҚШ-та бұл Кришнамуртидің жазған екінші кітабы болды, оны негізгі коммерциялық баспа шығарды – басқа елдерде бұл алғашқы басылым болар еді. Авторлық құқық Кришнамурти Жазулары (KWINC) ұйымына тиесілі болды, ол сол кезде Кришнамуртидің еңбектерін әлемдік деңгейде насихаттаумен айналысты. Басылым құқықтары 1970 жылдардың ортасында Кришнамуртиге байланысты жаңа ұйымдарға (Кришнамурти қорына) және 21 ғасырдың басында Кришнамурти Баспасына (K Publications) берілді, ол оның барлық шығармаларын басып шығаруға жауапты болды.
The book was originally published May 1954 by Harper in the US and by Gollancz in the UK. In the US, it was the second Krishnamurti authored book to be published by a mainstream commercial publisherunlike in other markets, where this would be the first such publication. Copyright was held by Krishnamurti Writings (KWINC), the organization then responsible for promoting Krishnamurti's work worldwide; publishing rights were transferred to new Krishnamurti related organizations in the mid 1970s (the Krishnamurti foundations), and in early 21st century, to Krishnamurti Publications (K Publications), an entity with overall responsibility for publishing his works
The book was "an immediate success" and was in its 6th impression by the end of 1954; a 2015 reprint of was the edition's Opening to good reviews, it proved to be a "compelling entry" into publishing, helping to establish Krishnamurti as a viable author in the commercial publishing arena. Unlike the editions of the 1950s and 60s, later editions of the work (such as one ), included a variety of Krishnamurti photographs on the front cover. A digital edition in several e book formats was first published by HarperCollins e Books in 2010
About a third of the work was included in The Penguin Krishnamurti Reader, a 1970 compilation edited by Krishnamurti biographer Mary Lutyens, that was also a commercial and critical success. In addition, Penguin Books through its Ebury Publishing division published a new edition of The First and Last Freedom in 2013, with an edition specific Preface. This was marketed as a mass market paperback by the division's Rider imprint , and as an e book by its digital media
As of 2022, according to one source, there had been 95 editions in several formats by a variety of publishers, published in eight languages. Several years prior, the work had also been made available as a freely readable electronic document through , the official Jiddu Krishnamurti online

Кітап "бірден табысқа ие болды" және 1954 жылдың соңына қарай 6-шы рет басылды. 2015 жылғы қайта басылымы – осы басылымның жаңа нұсқасы болды. Жақсы пікірлерге ие болып, бұл кітап коммерциялық баспа саласында Кришнамуртиді белгілі автор ретінде орнықтыруға көмектесетін "құнды туынды" болды. 1950 және 60-шы жылдардағы басылымдардан айырмашылығы, кітаптың кейінгі басылымдарында (мысалы, біреуінде) мұқабасында Кришнамуртидің әртүрлі суреттері болды. Бірнеше электрондық кітап форматындағы цифрлық басылым алғаш рет 2010 жылы HarperCollins e Books баспасында жарық көрді.

Кришнамуртидің өмірбаясын жазған бір автор Хакслидің алғы сөзі "оқушыны жұмысты өте жеке қабылдауға дайындады" деді, ал тағы біреуі 1954 жылдың мамыр айының соңына қарай кітаптың Кришнамуртидің дәрістеріне көбірек тыңдаушы жинауына себепкер болғанын айтты. Жан Берден 1959 жылғы "Prairie Schooner" журналындағы мақаласында Кришнамуртиге деген қызығушылықтың өсуіне кітаптың әсерін атап өтті, бірақ ол "оның танымал дәрістерінен" құрастырылғандықтан, "көптеген құрастырылған жұмыстар сияқты қайталау мен құрылымның болмауынан зардап шегеді" деді. Дегенмен, Энн Морроу Линдберг оның айтқандарының қарапайымдылығын байқады. Kirkus Reviews оны "дәстүрлі шындық іздеу жолдарының дұрыс еместігін сезінген көптеген адамдарға тартымды болатын көзқарасты анық және қызықты түрде ұсынады" деп сипаттады. "The Atlanta Journal" және "The Atlanta Constitution" газеттері Кришнамуртидің ойларының "нақтылығына толы" екенін айтты. "Ол өте түсінікті, өте тікелей, оқырман әр бетте үлкен күш сезінеді". Ал "The Times of India" газеті Кришнамуртидің сөздерінде "белгісіздік пен сендіруге ұқсайтын жасырын күш бар" деп жазды, соңында жұмыстың "теориядан бөлек практика жоқ екенін, ал қазіргі контексте бекер екенін" қорытты.
A Krishnamurti biographer wrote that Huxley's foreword "set the mood to take the work very seriously", and another stated that by the end of May 1954 the book was responsible for attracting larger audiences to Krishnamurti's talks. Jean Burden, in a sympathetic 1959 article in the Prairie Schooner, partly attributed the increased interest in Krishnamurti to the book, while stating that as it was compiled from his "famous talks", it "suffered, as most compilations do, from repetitiveness and lack of structure. Yet Anne Morrow Lindbergh reputedly found the sheer simplicity of what he has to say
Kirkus Reviews described it as a "clear and intriguing presentation of a point of view which will appeal to many who are finding the more traditional approaches to truth to be blind alleys. A review at The Atlanta Journal and the Atlanta Constitution contended that Krishnamurti's thinking "has the practical ring. It is so clear, so straightforward that the reader feels a challenge in every page". In contrast, The Times of India, while finding the work's basic message unoriginal, maintained that Krishnamurti's utterances have "a fluid ambiguity and an almost insidious plausibility", before concluding that the work is "all theoria without praxis, and in the present context appears to be mere
The Times Literary Supplement stated that for those who regard conflict "as an unchangeable condition of human life and truth, Krishnamurti's teaching will seem to offer a delusive short cut to a vaguely beatific freedom. But there is nothing vague about it. It is precise and penetrating." The reviewer thinks that Krishnamurti presents "a reinterpretation of the wisdom of his race though he has rediscovered it for himself. Nevertheless, J. M.

The work was mentioned in education related dissertations as early as August 1954; it continued to be cited by educational researchers in the following decades. It has also interested researchers in psycholinguistics, drawing favorable remarks about Krishnamurti's views regarding the "separation between the thinker and the thought"; and has featured in discussion of the relationship between general semantics and other

"The Times Literary Supplement" журналында, "егер сіз қақтығысты адам өмірінің және шындықтың өзгере алмайтын жағдайы деп санасаңыз, Кришнамуртидің оқулары сізге шамалы ләззатты бостандыққа тез жол ұсынатын сияқты көрінеді. Бірақ онда ешқандай тұмандылық жоқ. Ол нақты және терең". Мақала авторы Кришнамурти "өз халқының даналығын жаңаша түсіндіреді, бірақ ол оны өзі үшін қайта ашты" дейді. Дегенмен, Дж. М. Коэн "The Observer" (Лондон) газеті үшін жазған рецензиясында "Кришнамурти толығымен тәуелсіз шебер" деп мәлімдеді, сондай-ақ "отыруға дайын болғандар үшін бұл кітаптың құны зор" деді.

Кітаптың жарық көргені Кришнамурти мен оның идеяларын психотерапиямен айналысатын және оны зерттейтін мамандардың назарына жеткізіп, осы саладағы Кришнамурти мен кәсіпқорлар арасындағы келешектегі диалогқа жағдай жасады. Бұл сонымен қатар Кришнамуртидің теориялық физик Дэвид Боммен ұзақ және жемісті қарым-қатынасына да себепкер болды, өйткені Бомның физика және сана мәселелеріне қатысты дәстүрлі емес көзқарасы Кришнамуртидің философиялық ойларымен үлкен үйлесімділікте болды. Бұл жұмыс 1954 жылдың тамызында білім беру саласындағы диссертацияларда еске алынды және келесі онжылдықтарда білім беру зерттеушілері оны жиі сілтеме ретінде пайдаланды. Ол сонымен қатар психолингвистика зерттеушілерін қызықтырды, Кришнамуртидің "ойлаушы мен ойдың арасындағы айырмашылық" туралы пікірлеріне оң баға берді және жалпы семантика және басқа да салалар арасындағы қарым-қатынас туралы талқылауларда көрінді.
