Does Krishnamurti claim of No Path, No Progress, No Goal fit with Buddhist thought?

The idea there is no path is itself a path, which obviously has a goal. If there was no goal, why did KM teach?
The Buddha's path, properly comprehended, is the abandonment of craving & letting go. This is similar to what KM was attempting to teach but, unlike KM, the Buddha comprehended there is actually a path (patipada) or method (gamini).
