Beyond the Illusion of Self: A Comparative Exploration of Jiddu Krishnamurti and Acharya Prashant's Pathways to Liberation

Abstract

This paper delves into the profound similarities between Jiddu Krishnamurti's and Acharya Prashant's philosophies, emphasizing their shared focus on the illusory nature of the self, the transformative power of awareness, and the rejection of belief systems as foundational to their teachings. Despite differences in their communication styles and backgrounds, a comparative analysis reveals how both teachers guide individuals towards a profound truth: liberation from the ego-driven mind opens a pathway towards an unbounded reality of pure awareness. Drawing from their talks, writings, and online resources, this paper provides a nuanced exploration of how these two influential spiritual figures encourage a radical shift in perception.
