Krishnamurti Foundation America — Local services in Ojai

Stepping into the Krishnamurti house/library is like entering a sanctuary of peace and deep contemplation. Nestled in the breathtaking Ojai Valley, the surroundings are incredibly serene, with towering oaks, gentle breezes, and a stillness that instantly soothes the mind.
