A brief summary: K was discovered by CWL as a young boy and was groomed to
be the vehicle of Lord Maitreya when he makes his appearance. He grew up in
Adyar and in 1929 or so, he made his famous "Truth is a Pathless Land"
statement. Briefly he stated one cannot come to Truth by any formal path or
organization or any method. He also disbanded the Order of the Star of East
of which he was the Head. He also had not connection with TS or any other
organization. Till his death in 1986, he widely lectured all over the world.

If you are interested, I can post his "Truth is a Pathless Land" statement.
