Theos-Talk Archives (October 1997 Message tl00326)

I am posting this to listening-l as I need help in locating the following quote.

Here is something I read in a post on another maillist. Can anyone help
identifying if anyone recalls this incident, because I have not seen it.

===================================================
I agree 100 % to that what you write but I have  questions concerning
Krishnamurti.

According to HPB literature Krishnamurti was once asked to help
a deeply hurted  clearvoyant woman who lost all her six sons in wars.
She came to him and asked why this had happend to her because she
herself was not able to "see" it. He answered that the cause was that
she had killed some ants 51 incarnations ago.

I consider this answer fist to be heartless, second there still is the
wrong believe of "cause and effect" and third 51 incarnations ago
to me does not sound very true. What surely worked here is that
Kirshnamurti with this answer is able to gain some power on the
cost of the poor women and maybe presses her deeper down then
she might have felt before she went to meet him.
