Jiddu Krishnamurti (1895 or 1896 – 1986) was an author and lecturer on spiritual and philosophical subjects who had a major impact on Twentieth Century thought. He was "discovered" as a child in India by Charles Leadbeater, who believed that the boy had the potential to become a great religious leader. Krishnamurti and his brother Nitya were educated by Theosophists at the Theosophical Society based in Adyar, Chennai,India. Adyar Theosophists established the Order of the Star in the East to promote the idea the Krishnamurti was the much-anticipated "World Leader" or Maitreya. Eventually Krishnamurti rejected the role and the organization, and taught that "Truth is a pathless land".
Krishnamurti was often referred to by his friends as "K".
