Monthly video & dialogue in Christchurch
There's no meeting in April as Kyoko will be away.

The next meeting is 18th May 08:
Place: 102 Reynolds Valley, Little River, Banks Peninsula

Contact: Laurie Silver, ph: 325-1969, email: lauriesilver@gmail.com

Time: Sunday 18 May, 10:00 am (we eat lunch together)

DVD: The Movement of Desire (public talk at Brockwood Park in 1978)
"Can I strip myself of the network of thought?"
Theme: Can we live without image?
Is it possible to live without a single image...Otherwise, you will always be getting hurt...

...the cause of [being hurt] is that I have an image about myself...the image is trampled upon, and it gets hurt, and the consequence of that hurt is to resist, to build a wall around oneself, becoming more and more lonely...
Directions: Hwy 75 (just before township of Little River) follow signs to Birdlands Sanctuary (right on Kinlock, left at Y to Okuti Valley Rd.) One km from Y, take shingle road on right sign posted Reynolds Valley Rd and Te Oka Bay. One km up shingle road (just before first bridge) is 102 Reynolds Valley. Metal gate and wee Forest Cottage sign let you know you have arrived.

Note: Only 4-wheel drive or all-wheel drive vehicles will make it up our driveway. Please park by the wood shed. All others please park on the side of the road outside gate so others can enter. It is a 5-minute-beautiful walk from the gate to the house.


Please let Laurie know in advance of your attendance either by phone or email.
Those who need a transport should contact Kyoko (ph: 329-4789, email: aakaasha@ihug.co.nz)

Information needed about Krishnamurti's 1934 visit to Auckland
 
The Auckland Art Gallery is interested in the possibility of an exhibition around Krishnamurti's 1934 visit to Auckland. If there are any memories out there we'd love to know about them. 
 
Who were the people he met, did he receive a Maori welcome? Was he invited back at any point and who was responsible for his initial visit? Is there correspondence from this time?.
 
If you have anything at all please contact Jane Evans

Hawaii islanders seek like-minded people with interest in Krishnamurti

We live in the southernmost area of the USA on the Big Island of Hawaii (Naalehu). Several of us have been interested in K's teachings and holistic living with a focus on ecology. Recently a parcel of land in our community (of private land owners) has come up for sale, but is not yet listed with a realtor. We thought we'd like to invite others interested in Krishnamurti's teachings to inquire about the rural 1/2 acre parcel with a small cabin for $62,000. You may write directly to the owner Antje Detrick at adietr@gmx.net

If you are interested in being posted about land for sale in our area in the future, I will put you on a notification list. Please let me know. Thank you for your time, Ruth.
