You are present as the knower of experience. You know thoughts, feelings, sensations and perceptions, but you are not made out of any of these. You - this open, empty, aware presence - are inherently free of any resistance, just as the space of the room in which your body is sitting is free of resistance. This absence of resistance is known as peace or happiness. It is inherent in your self. It is your self. It is your natural and ever-present condition and lies at the heart of all experience simply waiting to be recognized.

KRISHNAMURTI FRIENDS OF LOS ANGELES presents "A PROGRAM OF VIDEO AND DIALOGUE"
Video & Dialogue: $10 Suggested Donation.
For Info: (310) 650-5079 or kdialogue@roadrunner.com

With the focus on "what is" rather than on ideas and opinions, the intention is to inquire together in such a way that new insights may occur in relation to fundamental questions of life.
Discovered as a boy by the Theosophical Society, Krishnamurti was groomed to be the new World Teacher, a role he repudiated in 1929 when he declared that Òtruth is a pathless landÓ and that his sole mission was Òto set men . . . unconditionally free.Ó For the rest of his life, he traveled the world exploring the issues of our common humanity with large audiences and invited participants. He had a special interest in education and founded schools in India, England, and California. Krishnamurti died in Ojai in 1986. His teachings are disseminated world-wide through the Krishnamurti Foundation.

Bodhi News Part 1: FUTURE OF THE BODHI TREE BOOKSTORE
Some good news. A Letter of Intent from Karuana Gatimu and Lori Cutler to Purchase Assets of the Bodhi Tree Bookstore business has been received and accepted. For some time, the Bodhi Tree has been interviewing different groups and individuals about purchasing and continuing the business to take it to the next paradigm of knowledge and service for the community of seekers. We feel that Karuana and Loris hearts are in the right place and we are very optimistic that this new relationship will be in the best interest to continue the legacy of the past 41 years.
Their intention is to enhance, expand, and energize the mission of the Bodhi Tree with 21st century technology and tools. Karuana and Lori are dedicated to continue to provide a comprehensive selection of books, educational events and holistic services to people of all spiritual paths.
We will be open as usual in the present location until October 31, 2011 and possibly for a few months beyond. As details of a new location and design come into being, we will keep you informed.

Where to park near the Bodhi Tree Bookstore
WHERE TO PARK NEAR THE BODHI TREE BOOKSTORE:
Friends of the Bodhi Tree,
One of the most common problems of life in Los Angeles is finding a parking space. Here's a guide that we hope will make it easier for you to park and help you avoid getting a parking ticket when visiting the Bodhi Tree Bookstore in West Hollywood. Park cautiously and feel free to ask us where and when you may park.
The Bodhi Tree Bookstore has three customer parking spaces in front of the former Used Book building on Westbourne Avenue. Metered street parking is generally available. In addition, there are two parking structures ( Pacific Design Center and West Hollywood park/Library Parking Structure), and Valet parking. See below for details.
VALET PARKING:
The City of West Hollywood, the Urth Caffé, the Bodhi Tree Bookstore and other local merchants have a community valet parking program.
The pick-up area is in front of the Bodhi Tree Annex building at 8583 Melrose Avenue.
The cost is $5.00 and it is in operation from 10:30 am to 11 pm.
Consider using valet parking the next time you want to visit not only the Bodhi Tree Bookstore but also Kitson, Waterworks and Mansour across the street, followed by a visit to Soolip for some beautiful paper. There are many interesting stores in the area. Finally, before heading home, you can relax with a wonderful "caffé" at Urth or Le Pain Quotidien. Through valet parking, you may "forget" about your car for long time.
How to park for free: The Bodhi Tree Bookstore offers a "help you park" program. We will reimburse or credit the basic Valet fee ($5.00) for a minimum purchase of $15.00.
