(Australian-New Zealand Cable Assn.) (Received 26th August, 2.30" p.m.)
NEW YOKE, 25th August.
Jeddu Krishnamurti, whom the Theosophists acclaim as the "Messiah," arrived on the liner Majestic, accompanied by Dr. Annie Besant for a tour of the United "States. The unusually, handsome young Indian apparently; found his reception an ordeal, but ho endeavoured to answer his interviewers' questions. He said: "I hope for radical changes in the religious life of America. It is materialistic, and happiness is sought in the material, but fonn4 in the spiritual." ' ■
Krishnamurti resented, the intimation that he regarded himself aa a second Messiah. He said: "I shall not weep on the city. That would be silly. I shall not preach repentance or remission of sins. Mine is a doctrine of universal love."
His white-haired sponsor, Mrs. B«» sant, said: —
"The time of waiting is over. Th« teacher has come."
