Krishnamurti FoundationKrishnamurti foundations – Reading this article and the article The First and Last Freedom, it appears that there is not one Krishnamurti Foundation, but several different foundations, which have different names and operate in different areas. An IP editor of The First and Last Freedom specifically objects to linking to this article as if there's a singular foundation. -- Beland (talk) 20:51, 20 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Support – In the interest of disclosure this is the above-mentioned IP editor. It seems a large part of the article has been written from the perspective of a specific foundation, the Krishnamurti Foundation India (KFI). This is apart from the fact that the article has serious other issues. As a first step, it is important to be categorized properly. The foundations have nothing to do with "Indian philosophy", "New religious movements", and they are expressly not "spiritual" institutions or organizations. 65.88.88.59 (talk) 19:57, 24 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Perhaps this is going ahead of the issue, but I wonder about the scope of the article. There are many Krishnamurti-related organizations, both official and unofficial. He was definitely associated with the four official foundations and most of the schools they operated. There were also so-called Krishnamurti committees that he allowed to use his name and a few independent (non-Foundation) schools he considered similarly (if only temporarily). He was very careful with who was representing him, and how. Should the article concentrate on the so-called "official" or sanctioned-by-him organizations? 67.243.247.14 (talk) 15:56, 25 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
