This book features excerpts on the title's theme from Krishnamurti's talks and discussions held between 1933 and 1967. There are talks on marriage, love, relationships and sex. Krishnamurti states, sex becomes an extraordinary, difficult and complex problem so long as you do t understand the mind. Krishnamurti asks the reader to investigate essential questions: How can I live with ather without conflict? Why are relationships difficult? What is awareness in relationship? Do I really kw what love is? What does it mean to learn in a relationship? What is the role of thought and memory in relating to ather? There is escape from a relationship. In that relationship, which is the mirror in which we can see ourselves, we can discover what we are, our reactions, our prejudices, our fears, depression, anxieties, loneliness, sorrow, pain, grief. We can, also, discover whether we love or there is such thing as love. So, we will examine this question of relationship because that is the basis of love. -J. Krishnamurti Madras, India, 1982 Why does the mind think about sex at all? Why? Why has it become a central issue in your life? Sex has become an extraordinary, difficult and complex problem so long as you do t understand the mind, which thinks about the problem. The act itself can never be a problem but thought about the act creates the problem. -J. Krishnamurti, The First and Last Freedom

Krishnamurti, Jiddu was recognised at age fourteen as the coming World Teacher. Krishnamurti claimed allegiance to no caste, nationality or religion and was bound by no tradition. He travelled the world and spoke spontaneously to large audiences until the end of his life at age ninety. He said man has to free himself of all fear, conditioning, authority and dogma through self-knowledge.
