The Nectar of Silence ~ Vimala Thakar

Vimala Thakar (1921- 2009) was born in Bilaspur District in the
Indian state of Chhattisgarh. She was a great spiritually
enlightened revolutionary and activist; mystic, and a notable
Indian figure of the 20th Century who boldly forged a radically
independent approach to spirituality and the search for truth. In
1958, Thakar attended talks given by, and met with, the
philosopher Jiddu Krishnamurti. This meeting was to change her
life. Freed from all religious tradition, she brought the
timeless wisdom of the East to the modern egalitarian West
without the baggage of religious terminology, endeavoring to
awaken people through deep inquiry. Fiercely independent,
beholden only to her own burning passion for liberation, she
crisscrossed the world for many years, travelling to 35 countries
through the sixties, seventies and eighties, exhorting all who
would listen to wake up to what she would term the ‘totality of
Life.’
