Mind is a Myth gathers conversations in which U. G. Krishnamurti dismantles the notions of 'mind', 'self', and 'enlightenment' as cultural fictions. The idiom is brusque, unsentimental, and exactingly colloquial; repetition and contradiction are used as tools to exhaust conceptual habit. Set against the twentieth-century counter-spiritual critique, the book presents his report of a physiological 'calamity' that ended the sense of psychic continuity, leaving an organism that functions without an inner controller. Techniques, gurus, and ideals, he argues, merely perpetuate the problem they market. Indian-born U. G. Krishnamurti (1918–2007) passed through Theosophical and philosophical milieus, encountered Ramana Maharshi and J. Krishnamurti, and eventually rejected every doctrine and discipline. A dramatic shift in 1967, in Switzerland, inaugurated his lifelong refusal to teach or organize; he allowed only unguarded dialogues, later compiled by close associates. His background—straddling Western psychology and Vedantic vocabulary—sharpens his diagnosis of conditioning, authority, and the bodily basis of thought. This book suits readers ready to have cherished categories stripped away: scholars of religion and mind, critics of the spiritual marketplace, and seekers weary of methods. Agree or not, it is a stringent instrument—iconoclastic, lucid, unsettling—that clarifies by subtraction and refuses consolations in favor of bare, biological fact. Quickie Classics summarizes timeless works with precision, preserving the author's voice and keeping the prose clear, fast, and readable—distilled, never diluted.
