His subject matter included psychological revolution, the nature of mind, meditation, inquiry, human relationships, and bringing about the radical change in society. He constantly stressed the need for a revolution in the psyche of every human being and emphasised that such revolution could not be brought about by any external entity, be it religious, political, or social.Krishnamurti attracted the interest of the mainstream religious establishment in India. He engaged in discussions with several well known Hindu and Buddhist scholars and leaders, including the Dalai Lama
