The sage and the housewife

This book on UG Krishnamurthi brings a breath of fresh air in an atmosphere infested with self-proclaimed godmen, gurus, and pseudo-religious seekers. If you like to tread a path of adventure, risking your pet beliefs, assumed certainties, and habitual hypocrisies, you will love this unique work by a simple and ordinary housewife. Her spontaneous encounters with the enigmatic sage are full of wit and humor. Within these pages, UG Krishnamurthi emerges not as a guru or a godman dishing out homilies and commandments, but a person in flesh and blood. The fragrance of his simplicity and openness is spread throughout the book.
