Why compare Raman with Buddha instead of Krishnamurti?

According to Osho, Krishnamurti is virtually identical to Raman in transcendental experience, but lacks the broad, scholarly knowledge Arvind possesses. He chose Buddha because Buddha unites Arvind’s vast knowledge with Raman’s self-knowledge, providing a fuller contrast. Krishnamurti’s reason deconstructs reason and his teachings are voluminous yet reducible, whereas Raman speaks aphoristically like the Upanishads.
