Naval Ravikant mentioned Total Freedom by Jiddu Krishnamurti 25 times

From “Total Freedom.” It’s all over but particularly “A Dynamic Society” and “Living in Ecstasy.” pic.twitter.com/sPhZSMwxPh

Popper, Deutsch, Schopenhauer, Osho, Krishnamurti, DeMello, Seneca, Kapil Gupta, Taleb, there are too many...

— Naval Ravikant

Krishnamurti, I don’t know, Kapil Gupta, Rupert Spira.

Hard on Twitter. You can read DeMello, J Krishnamurti, Jed McKenna, Michael Singer, Rupert Spira, Osho, Tolle, etc.. Different ones appeal to different people.

— Naval Ravikant

I'm pretty much always rereading something by either Jiddu Krishnamurti or Osho. Those are kind of my favorite for other philosophers.

Read pretty much everything by him.

— Naval Ravikant

At the moment, the most interesting ones for me are Jed McKenna, @KapilGuptaMD, Osho, Jiddu Krishnamurti, Anthony DeMello and Rupert Spira.

— Naval Ravikant

Matt Ridley, Neal Stephenson, Taleb, Borges, Ted Chiang, Anthony DeMello, Osho, J Krishnamurti, Harari, Asimov, Bradbury, Greg Egan, Feynman, Schrödinger, Bohr, Chris Alexander, the Durants, Darwin, Adam Smith, David Deutsch, Karl Popper, Douglas Hofstader, Douglas Adams

— Naval Ravikant

I don’t have a single one, but the easiest one to start with is The Book of Life. I probably have reread Total Freedom the most.

— Naval Ravikant

I didn’t know what to make of Watts either. He translates East to West pretty well, but Osho, Krishnamurti, de Mello, Lao Tzu, Upanishads, Vedic texts all feel more “real” to me.

— Naval Ravikant

Too many. But read Osho, Krishnamurti, DeMello, Michael Singer, and @KapilGuptaMD

— Naval Ravikant

I’ve read Watts, thanks. He’s extremely eloquent but for whatever reason, I get more out of Osho and Krishnamurti.

I still recommend Snow Crash. If anybody here is into sci-fi at all and has not read Snow Crash, it is an incredible cyberpunk novel written probably 20 years ago now. Still incredibly forward looking; in some ways it predicted cryptocurrencies, it predicted virtual reality, it predicted parts of the internet. Amazing book, had a huge influence on me. Now, that may not speak to you anymore. It’s 20 years later, [and] you’re probably younger than me, so the right book at the right time will speak to you in a way the right book at the wrong time just won’t. In fact, the same book picked up 20 years later can have a huge impact. That’s how Krishnamurti was for me. I read him in my twenties; didn’t make sense. I read him in my late thirties; changed my life. You know sometimes you’re just not ready for the book, or the book is a conversation between the reader and the author and ... one party isn’t ready.

Best classic book philosophy, intro, someone starting out? I love Siddhartha, Herman Hesse’s book. For someone who’s more advanced, Jiddu Krishnamurti; I like his Total Freedom book. Osho’s Great Challenge, Michael Singer’s Untethered Soul. Marcus Aurelius, Meditations.

Start with Total Freedom.

— Naval Ravikant

Depending on your mood, either The Sovereign Individual, Sapiens, Siddhartha, Total Freedom (JK), The Untethered Soul, or the Rational Optimist. Books are cheap, buy all and skim them for the one that grabs you.

— Naval Ravikant

To answer your question - shortcut to Munger, M Ridley, Harari, Feynman, Darwin, J Krishnamurti. It'll be different next year ;-)

— Naval Ravikant

Total Freedom by J. Krishnamurti.

— Naval Ravikant

Feynman, Darwin, J Krishnamurti, Hitchens, Ridley, Harari, Aurelius, Seneca, Lao Tzu, Newton, Munger, Borges, D. Adams, Hesse...

— Naval Ravikant

Great read but beginner fare. Go straight to J Krishnamurti or Osho...

— Naval Ravikant

Total Freedom by J Krishnamurti. Anything by Osho.

— Naval Ravikant

@PatrickWStanley No books that I know of. More through thinking and conversation. Maybe Total Freedom by J Krishnamurti.

— Naval Ravikant

I’m always reading something by Krishnamurti. Usually, it’s Total Freedom, which is the book that I just reread over and over again. Doesn’t necessarily make sense, but when you’re ready for it, there’s nothing else like it.

@leonjohnstone @mattwridley Poor Charlie's Almanac, A Cultural History of Physics, Total Freedom (Krishnamurti).

— Naval Ravikant

@markhughes No, but recently read Tao, Gita, Aurelius, Krishnamurti, Hagakure. Evolution still has strong predictive power in my reality.
