K. Krishnamurthy ( fondly called KK by friends and colleagues) who was closely associated with the Krishnamurti Foundation India (KFI) at its campus in R. A. Puram, passed away on May7, late evening. He was 73 years old.
He was with the KFI for over 40 years having been a keen scholar of the works of philosopher J. Krishnamurti.
Using his skills as a journalist and writer, KK was the man behind the release of many publications of KFI and had arranged retreats at this verdant campus off Greenways Road called Vasant Vihar.
He also arranged dialogue meets on the campus lawns, handled workshops and was in charge of the newsletters.
Krishnamurthy had worked with The Indian Express and The Hindu newspapers for many years. Later, he took up full time work for the KFI and resided on this campus.
