NOT THE CHRIST.
KRISHNAMURTI DECIDED. VANCOUVER, November 27. "I know I am no more Christ than you," declared Jeddu Krishnamurti, on whom Mrs. Annie Besant tried to hang a Messianic mantle. He declined to say if he were coming to Australia in April next. "Those who care to hear me talk will come.to Ojai (California), where I shall hold a camp next May," he said. "I wae reared in the beliefs of theosophy. . Mrs. Annie Besant told me she found in me the personification of Christ. Later I became the leader of the Order and believed that I was the Messiah. To-day I know that is not true, and if you come out to_ Ojai next May I shall not pose as. Christ."
