Description

Stopped in Our Tracks: Stories of UG in India" is a book that explores the life and philosophy of U.G. Krishnamurti, an unconventional philosopher known for his radical views on enlightenment, self-realization, and spirituality. The book, written by K. Chandrasekhar, offers a series of personal stories and encounters with U.G. during his time in India.

U.G. Krishnamurti is known for rejecting traditional spiritual concepts, particularly the idea of enlightenment. Unlike other spiritual leaders, he didn't preach meditation, self-discipline, or any sort of spiritual practice. Instead, he emphasized the natural state of being, urging people to look beyond the concepts and ideas that they associate with spiritual progress.

The book shares how people from various walks of life came across U.G., how his challenging perspectives affected their worldview, and the profound experiences they had in his presence. These stories paint a picture of U.G. not as a traditional guru, but as a person who radically defied the norms of spiritual teachings and rejected the idea of seeking or attaining any higher state of being.
