At the Feet of the Master

Posted on 26 November 2018 by Jiddu Krishnamurti

The privilege is given to me, as an elder, to pen a word of introduction to this little book, the first written by a younger Brother, young in body verily, but not in Soul The teachings contained in it were given to him by his Master in preparing him for Initiation, and were written down by him from memory slowly and laboriously, for his English last year was far less fluent than it is now The greater part is a reproduction of the Master s own words that which is not such a verbal reproduction is the Master s thought clothed in His pupil s words Two omitted sentences were supplied by the Master In two other cases an omitted word has been added Beyond this, it is entirely Alcyone s own, his first gift to the world May it help others as the spoken teachings helped him such is the hope with which he gives it But the teaching can only be fruitful if it is lived, as he has lived it, since it fell from the Master s lips If the example be followed as well as the precept, then for the reader, as for the writer, shall the great Portal swing open, and his feet be set on the Path Annie Besant.
