Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This paper aims to analyze the essential nature of philosophy and the educational philosophy of Jiddu Krishnamurti. He believed that the mind, once suppressed, never acquires awareness, and that education is the foundation stone of life. Therefore, education is essential as it develops the mind without fear. To produce a holistic personality, Jiddu Krishnamurti recommended an integrated curriculum and teaching strategies. He was opposed to rote learning and the formal system of education. This study aims to explore the philosophy of life of Jiddu Krishnamurti through an in-depth examination of his educational philosophy.
