Well, Buck, Maharhisi said Krishnamurti was in unity. Specifically he said 'too far gone in Unity'. Krishnamurti slipped into it, but never really knew how he got there, which was why he had such difficulty getting people to understand what he was talking about. That's because with enlightenment, you do not get people from here to there, that is not how it works, but unfortunately everyone interprets the journey of enlightenment from 'here to there' rather than from 'here to here'; in fact it is not even that, it is just 'here'. Maharishi understood this, as did other teachers, that you have to find a way to trick the mind into thinking that teaching is going to take you from some state to another state, presumably a better one, to motivate the mind to engage in the practices that will lead to dissolving the delusion that enlightenment is something different from what you are already experiencing.
