The First and Last Freedom

"The First and Last Freedom" by J. Krishnamurti explores the idea that true freedom comes from inner understanding and self-awareness, rather than external rules or authorities. It argues that limitations and conflicts are created by our own minds, conditioning, and beliefs, which prevent us from experiencing peace and clarity. By observing ourselves objectively and questioning our assumptions, we can liberate ourselves from these mental obstacles. The book suggests that freedom is not a final goal but an ongoing process of awakening to our true nature, allowing us to live freely, fully, and responsibly in the present moment.
