«El arte de vivir» is the practical philosophy essay by Jiddu Krishnamurti, published by Editorial Kairós in paperback (238 pages, in Spanish).
A work born from talks with students, in which Krishnamurti questions conventional educational models. It analyses competition, loneliness and the relationship between the conscious and unconscious mind, and identifies fear, imitation and prejudice as brakes. It defends an inner revolution and the integral development of the person.
The book belongs to the Sabiduría Perenne collection from Editorial Kairós. The edition was overseen by D. Rajagopal, with translation by Armando Clavier.
Aimed especially at young people, it invites any reader interested in self-knowledge and personal development.
Jiddu Krishnamurti was an Indian spiritual figure, speaker, and writer. Adopted by members of the Theosophical Society as a child, Krishnamurti was raised to fill the mantle of the prophesied World Teacher, a role tasked with aiding humankind's spiritual evolution. In 1922, he began to suffer from painful, seizure-like mystical episodes that would produce a lasting change in his perception of reality. In 1929, he broke from the Theosophy movement and disbanded the Order of the Star in the East which had been formed around him. He spent the rest of his life speaking to groups and individuals around the world, hoping to contribute a radical transformation of mankind.
