Dear Friends,

I've happy to share with all of you that I've invited Mr Rajesh Dalal
a trustee of the Krishnaurti Foundation India. He will be here from
the 26th of Nov to Dec 4th as of now. More information about his is
available at www.rajeshdalal.com

It would be a pleasure to meet with all of you who are interested and
arrange for a dialogue or a talk by Rajesh Dalal

Feel free to contact me over email or my cell phone (201-870-9500) to
work out the details.

I've pasted below from his website his bio for quick access.

Looking forward to hearing from all of you.

Warm Regards,
Prasad Mahadevan

Bio of Rajesh Dalal:
Rajesh graduated from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur as a
Chemical Engineer in 1975. However, it was clear to him by then that
his primary concern was “human transformation”. He had studied at
depth, thoughts of leading psychologists, philosophers and educators
from the West. His thirst for fundamental enquiry led him to Eastern
religion, Yoga and the teachings of spiritual traditions like Vedanta,
Zen and Sufism. At the time, he continued to seek for answers to the
countless questions that plagued his mind. Encounter with
J.Krishnamurti’s writings in 1971 and later with the man himself,
altered his whole inner direction. An emptying process had
spontaneously begun and with that a dying to the known and an entry
into an unknown dimension of living. Immediately after graduation,
instead of seeking security and success in the engineering profession,
Rajesh plunged headlong into the work of inner enquiry and creating a
different kind of education and life.

Moved by his commitment and passion, Krishnamurti made him a trustee
of his Foundation and invited Rajesh to travel with him in India.
During ten years of these travels, they had intimate and challenging
conversations and countless dialogues on “What is the human potential
and what is limiting Man?” Countless spiritual experiences and
insights were generated through these encounters and Rajesh attempts
to share this process with people as a co-traveler and a friend, not
as a teacher. Confronting difficult human issues and unpleasant
truths, looking at them deeply without condemnation or justification,
many have experienced the healing insights and release of creative
energies generated thereby.

Rajesh has held important executive and educational responsibilities
for the Foundation and its centres in the past and has initiated a
number of innovative educational forums and projects. He has traveled
widely, all over Asia, Europe and Northern America giving talks,
holding dialogues and retreats. In 2010, he was invited as a keynote
speaker at the International Conference of Transpersonal Consciousness
in Moscow. More recently, he held a retreat in Dharmsala, India
jointly with Samdhong Rinpoche, Prime Minister of the Tibetan
Government in Exile. In early 2011, he held several retreats in
California and one in Oklahoma.

Rajesh has now retired from all executive roles in the Krishnamurti
Foundation, totally committing himself to one challenge –
transformation of consciousness through inviting, asking, nurturing
and deepening fundamental questions of human existence.
