Francis Lucille

A dialogue on Advaita Vedanta with Bernardo Kastrup
Francis Lucille

Francis Lucille is a spiritual teacher in the tradition of Advaita Vedanta (nonduality). A graduate of the Ecole Polytechnique in Paris where he studied mathematics and physics, Lucille managed missile tests for the French armed forces, then ceased all weapon related activities after discovering the writings of J. Krishnamurti. This discovery triggered an intense quest for reality that found its resolution shortly after a 1975 encounter with his spiritual teacher, Jean Klein, a famed French Advaita teacher in the lineage of Panditiji Veeraraghavachar of Bangalore, India. This was the beginning of a close association that lasted until the death of his friend and spiritual master in 1998.

Francis Lucille teaches worldwide and has translated some of the original works of Eastern and Western sages, which he frequently refers to in his dialogues. Some of these translations can be found here : Meister Eckhart’s Sermon 87  to Atma Bodha – Francis Lucille Translation, and Parmenides On Reality
