It was a year or two ago, when I came across Krishnamurti during a Google search. I did not know the personality and was looking for something else anyway. I saw there was a connection with Saanen, which only briefly caught my attention. I soon moved on without giving this short detour any further thought.

I begin with this confession of ignorance because I fear I am not the only one with this blank area on my mental map. People my age are too young to remember and there have been no efforts – at least none that reached me – to keep the memory of Krishnamurti alive in the region.

An exhibition in the Museum Saanen has set out to change this. It has attracted many people familiar with Krishnamurti. However, it has also presented this exceptional thinker and philosopher to a younger audience – like myself.

I’m glad we can do our share at GstaadLife to promulgate Krishnamurti, his work and his connection with the Saanenland. If the profile interview triggers your interest, you know where to satisfy your curiosity…

Best regards,
