Hi Katinka:
Here is the correct url: http://www.kfa.org/kfa_history.htm
By the way, here are some interesting facts:
One of the Trustee's of the Krishnamurti Trusts which sued Krishnamurti for
several million dollars is Austin Bee who was an officer of TS(Adyar) in
the recent past and was made the first ever "Emeritus Treasurer" of
TSA(USA) by the current administration even though he does not seem to have
any formal academic background in Accounting or Treasury. (Any one is
welcome to throw more light on this).
In a lawsuit that was filed by the Krishnamurti Trust (India) on behalf of
Krishnamurti to retrieve control of the property in Madras the defendants
were Krishnamurti Writings led by D Rajagopal. Guess who was the Secretary
of the Krishnamurti Trust (India) -- the plaintiffs -- none other than
Radha Burnier, the current President of TS(Adyar).
Krishnamurti also prohibited any of his materials from being published by
any entity in which any of the Trustees were involved in the past or
future, which means TPH cannot publish them since Rajagopal and Austin Bee
were associated with TS(Adyar).
Also to be noted is the fact that the entire litigation arose out of the
money and assets of the Trusts controlled by Rajagopal and the Trustees of
the Trust which was finally dissolved.

Hi, doss,
Funny URL - does not give links to the next pages, as far
as I was able to see. Yet chapter two can be found at:
http://www.kfa.org/kfa_history2.htm
Anyhow, thanks a lot for sending the URL.
