Re: A beautiful description of Belur Math and Vivekananda by Jules Bois
Dear Rosemary,
I used to be in contact with a Theosophist British author, named Jean Overton Fullar,
who passed away at age 94 in April 2009.
I have been hosting a website for her since 1999. You may visit it HERE
She wrote a book, entitled "Blavatsky and Her Teachers", which is very interesting.
She also authored a book in German about Krishnamurti, entitled: "Krishnamurti, Der Geist weht, wo er will"....which translates to:
"The Spirit blows where it wills". Unfortunately, she didn't live long enough to translate
it into English.
I came into contact with Miss Fuller, due to her friendship with (previously
mentioned) British Spy, Noor Inayat Khan; and her book about her, published
in 1954, entitled: "Madeleine".
We do have a page of quotes from Jiddu Krishnamurti HERE
Of course, Annie Besant is considered as the founder of "Home Rule", and is
greatly respected in Mother India. Early in their relationship, Krishnamurti
and Besant had developed a very close bond and he considered her a surrogate
mother.
