The Star Publishing Trust. Lot of 5 issues of the International Star Bulletin by J. Krishnamurti's publishing house.

Lot comprised of 2 issues from 1929, 1 issue from 1930, 1 issue from 1931, and 1 issue from 1933. This magazine of J. Krishnamurti's organization features his articles, poetry, and those of his followers.

Born in British colonial India, Jiddu Krishnamurti (1895–1986) was being groomed as a spiritual messiah by the Theosophical Society when he famously renounced that role, declaring that “truth is a pathless land.” Afterwards, Krishnamurti travelled the world as a philosopher and speaker urging people to observe their own minds and conditioning to find truth. He lived, taught and died in Ojai, California, which became a central hub for his talks, dialogues, and writings on psychological freedom and self-inquiry.

Hey, Old Al here. I gotta say, back in my California days, before becoming Old, I had visited Ojai on many occasions--hiking its trails, shopping its legendary yard sales, Bart's Books (of course), and using a fruit picking pole to steal its inhabitants lemons and oranges. While I was unaware of Krishnamurti in those days, I did visit his spiritual center as it sits ontop a mountain and hosts a beautiful garden, two things that I am oft trying to visit. Had I known of Krishnamurti then I might have extended my stay in Ojai by years, hostilely taking over Bart's Books for income. So it is better that I did not.

Good condition. Feb. 1929 issue is unbound with loose pages and has some pages missing. July 1930 issue has some loose pages, but is complete. June 1931 and July-August 1933 issues have stains to their covers. Overall solid lot of issues with shelf wear.
