Tonight we were talking a little bit about the philosopher Jacques Derrida and deconstruction and how this relates to Krishnamurti's teaching. One book that is useful to do this with is Derrida's 'Given Time Two: Counterfeit Money'. I managed to find the whole book online and have included to link here:

We decided at the study group tonight not to follow The Awakening of Intelligence any further. In our fluid and wide ranging conversation tonight we scarely referred to it at all. Everyone in the Group B seems very comfortable with their understanding of Krishnamurti's teachings, and so we all thought that our conversations would flow along better and be more interesting if we each followed our own interest in Krishnamurti and exchanged our ideas from the different Krishnamurti books we are reading.
We can chat about the same idea in Group A next Sunday and see how people feel.

Did you all ever have this talk?! I feel as though the two asked similar questions in similarly patient and methodical ways but from two totally different ends (I hesitate to say paths....)
