 Ah, This !
Through delightfully zany anecdotes, Osho captures and conveys the spirit of
Zen's enigmatic understanding of life. "Try to understand Zen through laughter,
not through prayer," he suggests. "Zen is not a doctrine, not a dogma. It is
growing into an insight. It is a vision -- very lighthearted, not serious at all."

 A Must For Contemplation Before Sleep


The selections in this volume are taken from previously unpublished "darshan
diaries". -- transcripts of intimate dialogues between Osho, his disciples and
others who came seeking his insight. At Osho's suggestion the book is specifically
designed to be read before entering sleep. The evening contemplations remind the
reader of the beauty and significance of relaxation, expansion, melting, letting go.
The book is illustrated throughout with photographs and is bound with exquisite
full-color end papers.

 And Now And Here


Osho examines one of man's greatest taboos, death. Exposing the fallacy behind
the notion that death is a calamity, he also throws light on the paradoxical
relationship between life and death. In addition, the reader is led through Osho's
specially devised meditations related to the experience of death, techniques to
increase awareness and to recall past lives.

 A Must For Morning Contemplation


The selections in this volume are taken from previously unpublished "darshan
diaries" -- transcripts of intimate dialogues between Osho, his disciples and others
who came seeking his insight. At Osho's suggestion the book is specifically
designed to be read upon waking.
The morning contemplations are uplifting and inspiring, encouraging a lively
participation in the day to come. The book is illustrated throughout with
photographs and is bound with exquisite full-color end papers.

 And Now And Here, Vol 2


Osho talks on man's state of being spiritually asleep, and explains why beliefs are
based in fear. He talks about his personal experiences of meditation and on dying
with awareness. He explains his understanding that humanity can only change
through the inner transformation of individuals, not through any form of moral
education.

 And Now And Here – On Death, Dying and Past Lives


What happens when we die? Is reincarnation a superstition or fact? Do we spend
time as disembodied spirits between lives? How and why do we choose to be
reborn?
These are among the questions being asked at a meditation retreat in a remote part
of India. The subject under discussion is death, and how the fear of it affects
people's lives. The man conducting the retreat is Osho, and his answers will
surprise and inspire you.

 And The Flowers Showered


A beautiful and simple introduction for those new to Zen. Commenting on eleven
Zen anecdotes, Osho explores the spiritual search, speaking on emptiness and no-
mind, knowledge and being; belief and trust, repression and truth; philosophy and
religion, love and divinity; death and disease, happiness and living in the here-
and-now.
"Osho continues publishing very good spiritual texts indeed. These on Zen are
direct and whimsical. ...Osho has a no-mind to his comments, sudden bursts of
insight, novel ways of putting together images so that you read in an enchanted
wonder."

 The Art Of Dying – Talks on Hasidic Stories


In this volume Osho comments on stories compiled by the Jewish philosopher
Martin Buber. Osho helps the reader to face the reality of his own death without
fear, and thereby living life to the optimum. Originating in Poland around 1750,
Hasidim sought a direct, spontaneous religious experience of life, and created a
great tradition of laughing saints and wonderful stories.
"In a language simple but yet profound, the master Osho indicates the art of
'dying' by learning how to live in the here and now, the eternal life."

 At The Feet Of The Master


This handsome volume of Osho's words, illustrated with black and white
photos of Osho and sannyasins in the commune, is a compilation from
thirty published darshan diaries.
Osho speaks directly and intimately to individuals, addressing issues
concerned with their personal growth: What is a disciple? What is a
master? What does it mean to take sannyas? These and the innumerable
other aspects of the search read with such relevance in today's world.

 Ancient Masters Of Zen – Seven Volume Set – speaks on the ancient


masters of Zen

Commenting on the exchanges, both sublime and bizarre, with their


disciples, Osho talks about seven of the most well-known and loved Zen
masters from the past and comments on a selection of beautiful haikus. A
variety of hilarious jokes sets the stage for the meditation that concludes
each evening's discourse.

 Ancient Music of The Pines

Of the ultimate realization of Zen, Osho says, "Suddenly you become


aware of a music that has always surrounded you... Your heart throbs in
the same rhythm as the heart of the whole." This essential Zen reader is
also about a number of other themes -- cowardice, boredom and
restlessness, recognition and rejection, maturity and moving from the non-
essential to the essential.

B
 Behind a Thousand Times

In these discourses on the Nirvana Upanishad, the enlightened mystic


Osho explores the essential nature of spiritual longing, the moving force
behind every seeker's quest for truth.
Speaking at a mediation camp in Mount Abu, Rajasthan, in India, Osho
elucidates the enduring wisdom of this ancient teaching: the true meaning
of initiation, or sannyas; the qualities needed by the seeker that will allow
him to flower to his full potential; the dangers and pitfalls along the way;
the harmonious dance between devotion, the path of love, and discipline,
the path of meditation. Through the medium of this Upanishad, Osho
shares with us the very fragrance of self-realization, the vision of nirvana.
"The sutra that we are exploring is so revolutionary that perhaps this is
why no commentaries have ever been written on the Nirvana Upanishad. It
is one of the neglected ones. ...This one is really revolutionary." Osho

 The Beloved Vol 1 – On the Wild, Dancing World of The


Bauls

"The Baul mystics are children of celebration. They celebrate life, they
celebrate death. Whatever is, is seen as a gift...they simply love life in all
its aspects," is how Osho introduces us to these mystics of Bengal.
And in the first verse of their song, "Only a connoisseur of the flavors of
love can comprehend the language of a lover's heart" is revealed the
essence of their religion. Osho explains their view of sex, their concept of
the body as a temple and their secret of surrender to God, to the Beloved,
to "the essential man" who lives within us all.

 The Beloved, Vol 2 – On the Wild, Dancing World of The


Bauls

Ten talks with alternating commentaries on the songs of these delicious


madmen, mystics, fools and poets with answers to seekers' questions. And
whatever the question, the answers all convey the trust, oneness and love
experienced by the Bauls. Spontaneous and life-affirmative, "theirs is the
path of the dancer, the singer, and the aesthetic man." "I have read most of
[Osho's] books and listened to tapes of his talks, and I am convinced that
in the spiritual tradition, here is a mind of intellectual brilliance and
persuasive ability as an author."

 Be Still And Know

In this question-and-answer series Osho talks on a diversity of subjects


from science and meditation, personality and essence, to homosexuality,
witnessing, salvation and silence. During these discourses, Osho's father
and disciple dies, and Osho speaks on what this means for him. The book
also includes a lavish color photo section on the death celebration.

 Beyond Enlightenment

What makes Osho different from Gautam Buddha and other enlightened
masters and mystics throughout history? The answer is here, in his own
provocative words: "To go beyond enlightenment is to go beyond
individuality and become universal." Osho responds to questions on topics
ranging from the intimate to the universal, from religion to philosophy,
from present-day politics to his own childhood experiences, from
enlightenment to what lies beyond.
 Beyond Psychology

Against a backdrop of almost universal political harassment, Osho talks in depth


on a variety of esoterica. He describes techniques of self-discovery, pointing out
that psychological answers to man's self-made miseries will no longer work.
These discourses are rare jewels of wisdom.

"Many subjects of interest to psycho-historians are taken up by [Osho] in


this fascinating series of talks — from esoteric topics to more familiar
subjects like sex, child rearing, and the place of mind in understanding the
world."

 Bhagwan: The Buddha For The Future

In what Osho calls an "historical document," Juliet Forman, a close


disciple of 17 years, tells her personal story and paints a revealing picture
of the evolution of the master-disciple connection.This the first of a
trilogy, describes her meeting with Osho and the dramatic turn-about in
her life that followed this encounter with the most radical spiritual force of
our times.

 Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh: The Most Dangerous Man Since


Jesus Christ

The author, who has been with Osho since 1976, and who was one of the
small band that accompanied him on his international tour, chronicles his
early years and describes the establishment of the commune in Poona and
the gigantic American experiment, including contemporary reports on both
by the international media. She also describes first-hand what happened on
Osho's World Tour and why he was denied entry by almost every country
in the world.

"The story of Osho's life makes fascinating reading,


and this is a good book to start with."

 Bhagwan- Twelve Days That Shook The World

In what Osho calls an historical document, a close disciple for 17 years


tells her personal story and paints a rivetting picture of the extra-ordinary
events surrounding Osho's arrest and incarceration by the US.
Government.
In this, the second part of her trilogy documenting Osho's life, and her
experience of the master-disciple relationship, Ms. Forman describes
Osho's illegal arrest in Charlotte, North Carolina, his imprisonment and
the subsequent attempts on his life. Described as a "spiritual thriller," the
book includes interviews with the sannyasins accompanying Osho and
with prison officials, as well as a verbatim account of the court case
against Osho.

 Bhagwan – The Most Godless Yet The Most Godly Man

Introduction by Tom Robbins

Osho's personal physician for the last eleven years of his life, Swami
Devaraj, recounts the events that led him to discipleship. He reveals the
intimate drama of life with the master in Poona, as only someone so close
to him could.

"...The most dangerous man since Jesus Christ... He's obviously a very
effective man, otherwise he wouldn't be such a threat. He's saying the
same things that nobody else has the courage to say. A man who has all
kinds of ideas, they're not only inflammatory they also have a resonance of
truth that scares the pants off the control freaks."

Tom Robbins, author of Even Cowgirls Get the Blues, Still Life with Woodpecker and
Jitterbug Perfume.

 Bhagwan – One Man Against The Whole Ugly Past Of


Humanity

In what Osho calls an "historical document," a close disciple of 17 years


tells her personal story and paints a revealing picture of the evolution of
the master-disciple process.
The book that completes the trilogy documenting Osho's life takes the
reader with Osho on his World Tour from the US to Nepal, Greece,
France, Switzerland, Sweden, England, Ireland, Spain, East Africa, Brazil,
Uruguay, Jamaica, Canada, Portugal and back again to Poona, India -- an
exercise for his disciples to see that, despite their optimism and the
passage of 2000 years, there was still no room at the inn. As one of the
small group accompanying Osho on his tour, Ms. Forman provides data
from government and other sources.

 A Bird On The Wing

Using traditional Zen stories and responding to seekers' questions, Osho


shows how man must first be grounded in himself before he can fly into
the sky of consciousness. Osho takes the reader from subjects as diverse as
food, jealousy, businessmen and enlightenment, to how to know if one
needs a master, the barriers we create through fear, and gratitude. Good as
a starter for newcomers to Zen.
 BodhiDharma – The Greatest Zen Master, Commentaries
on the Teachings of the Messenger of Zen from India to
China

Osho paints a portrait of Bodhidharma, one of his favorite Zen masters, as


an enlightened "mafia guy" with a personal history that reads like a
spiritual Alice in Wonderland."In this volume Osho brings Bodhidharma
to modern sensibilities but in a contemporary and interesting manner.
Nearly 400 fascinatingly intelligent pages of questions and answers,
lectures, writings, etc. A revolutionary, contemporary, utterly irreverent
way to the spirit."

 Books I Have Loved – In memory of Alan Watts

Having read thousands of the world's greatest books on every conceivable


subject, Osho shares the fragrance of some of his most loved in these
spontaneous and intimate talks. From the very first book, Hsin Hsin Ming
by Sosan, to the last entry, The Book, by Alan Watts, he takes us on an
unparalleled journey of discovery, choosing gifts from authors we have
known plus surprises from mystics and poets never heard of before. Not
only are we offered tantalizing reading matter, but an insight into the
dimension of the enlightened consciousness."He is certainly a religious
man, an intelligent human and one of those rare humans expressing
himself with joy."

 Book Of The Books (Vol 1-4) – Talks on the Dhammapada


Of Gautama The Buddha

Simply expressed, the essence of Gautam the Buddha unfolds in front of


us. Timeless wisdom brought into the present by one who appreciated this
unique mystic, as perhaps no one else ever has.

 Book Of The Secrets Vol 4 – Discourses on Vigyan Bhairava


Tantra

Five thousand years ago Lord Shiva gave to Devi, his consort, the one
hundred and twelve sutras which constitute the tantric scripture, Vigyana
Bhairava Tantra. "Vigyana" means consciousness. Bhairava means "one
who has gone beyond." And "Tantra" means technique. Of these sutras
Osho says, "They are the oldest, most ancient techniques. But you can call
them the latest also, because nothing can be added to them. They are
complete -- 112 techniques. They have taken in all the possibilities, all the
ways of cleaning the mind, transcending the mind."
 The Book Of Wisdom – Talks On Atisha’s Seven Points Of
Mind Training

The complete series of talks that Osho gave on the Indian mystic Atisha
are combined for the first time in a handsome new hard-back edition.
Atisha's fundamental teaching is outlined in "the Seven Points of Mind
Training" he devised and which Osho describes as being of inestimable
value. He suggests that the seeker "meditate on Atisha, listen to his advice.
This is not a philosophy, it is a manual to discipline yourself, it is a manual
for inner transformation. It is a book that can help you grow into wisdom."
An extraordinary journey into the world of an incredible early Buddhist
mystic.

"He is the rarest and most talented religionist to appear this century."

 The Buddha: The Emptiness Of The Heart – Part Of Five


Volume Set

In this particularly potent dose of Zen, Osho challenges the reader to know
the "empty heart," beyond feelings and sentiment, the door to eternity that
exists within everyone. Using stories and haikus from past Zen masters,
Osho reveals the relevance of Zen for the contemporary world. He
separates Zen from all the other religions in the world, stating that they are
obsolete whereas the Zen he is presenting is an alive phenomenon.

C
 Christianity – The Deadliest Poison, and Zen – The Antidote
to all poisons

With ruthless precision and wisdom that is often shocking, Osho


dismembers Christianity in the presence of twenty-one Jesuit priests
visiting his commune during this series. This is Osho at his most candid as
he deals with all the unspoken questions anyone from a Christian
background might ever want to ask. Also available on

"I think the essential thing he does is first to cut the dead wood of
religions, because there's so much accumulated rubbish around every
religious system. And he is quite merciless in what is necessary."

 Come, Come Yet Again Come

Osho's invitation echoes the words of the Sufi mystic, Jalaluddin Rumi:
"Come, come, whoever you are; wanderer, worshipper, lover of
learning...it does not matter. Ours is not a caravan of despair. Come, even
if you have broken your vow a thousand times. Come, come, yet again
come." Seekers from all over the world bring their questions to Osho and
he responds with characteristic individualized attention, warmth and
humor.

 Come Follow to You, Vol 1

Osho makes a clear distinction between the rebel called Jesus Christ and
the religion that followed after him—Christianity. Through the gospels of
Matthew, Luke and John he reintroduces Jesus as a man, a mystic and an
uncompromising master filled with love, fire and compassion. A treat for
those in love with Jesus' words.

"I have never heard anyone so beautifully and playfully integrate and then
dissolve the psychological problems which, for generations, have sapped
our human energies."

 Come Follow to You, Vol 2

Osho talks on Jesus the man, Jesus the Jew, Jesus the revolutionary, Jesus the
mystic. That is, he speaks on Christ, not on Christianity. The Christ that Osho
speaks about is alive, vital. As Osho responds to the sayings of Jesus, suddenly
what Jesus was trying to impart becomes luminously clear, startlingly relevant. In
addition, Osho answers questions from seekers such as: How does consciousness
relate to God? Did Jesus manipulate the High Priests to bring about his
martyrdom? Are fear and guilt the same thing?

"I have never heard anyone so beautifully and playfully integrate and then
dissolve the psychological problems which, for generations, have sapped our
human energies."

 Come Follow To You, Vol 3

Jesus is brought alive in a new and dynamic way—not the Jesus that the theologians
and scholars have presented to us but Jesus as seen through the eyes of a
contemporary mystic. In alternate discourses Osho answers questions about trust, his
path in relation to other paths, the difference between being a fatalist and going with
the flow, perfectionism, the behavior of an enlightened man, the paradox of tears of
joy, being distracted by the world while on the path of meditation and his
interpretation of The Lord's Prayer amongst others.

"I have never heard anyone so beautifully and playfully integrate and then dissolve
the psychological problems which, for generations, have sapped our human energies."
 Come Follow To You, Vol 4

Osho talks on Jesus the man, Jesus the Jew, Jesus the revolutionary, Jesus the mystic.
That is, he speaks on Christ, not on Christianity. The Christ that Osho speaks about is
alive, vital. As Osho responds to the sayings of Jesus, suddenly what Jesus was trying
to impart becomes luminously clear, startlingly relevant. In addition, Osho answers
questions from seekers such as: How does consciousness relate to God? Did Jesus
manipulate the High Priests to bring about his martyrdom? Are fear and guilt the
same thing?

"I have never heard anyone so beautifully and playfully integrate and then dissolve
the psychological problems which, for generations, have sapped our human energies."

 Communism and Zen Fire, Zen Wind

In the presence of a TV crew from the USSR, and almost a year before the walls
of Eastern Europe crumble, Osho offers a unique appraisal reappraisal of Soviet
Communism. From Socialism to Communism to Anarchism, Osho takes the
reader on an historical journey paved with misunderstandings and false hopes,
carefully teasing out the one missing ingredient in that extra-ordinary experiment.
Osho anticipates Gorbachev's Noble Prize and gives a prescient warning about the
tragic effects that supporting his plans will have on Soviet Russia. Osho also
exposes how the US is already orchestrating its own ultimate downfall...all sublty
entwined with Zen anecdotes and a dazzling selection of haikus.

 A Cup Of Tea

A beautifully bound collection of 365 letters written by Osho to his


disciples and friends, during the time he was travelling in India from the
1950's through the early 1970's. With less than a half dozen exceptions,
personal names have been removed from the text to reveal more clearly
the universality of these inspirational messages.
Each letter is a gem of insight. The subject matter is as multi-faceted as the
human search for truth, and covers everything from the difficulties in love
and relationships to the challenges of understanding the nature of mind
and reality. Osho often uses stories and parables to illustrate his points,
which makes the text very clear and accessible.
Anyone drawn to truth will treasure this book - the perfect bedside
companion, to be savored one cup at a time. Those who wish to
understand Osho's unique approach to life will find the book to be an
excellent introduction to the wisdom of the extraordinary man. And all
those who are on the path of enlightenment will find encouragement and
inspiration within its pages.

 Dang Dang Doko Dang


Dang Dang Doko Dang represents the sound of the drum beaten by a Zen
master in an existential lesson for a disciple. As well as symbolizing the
poetic quality of Zen, the title represents the special flavor of this
collection of Osho's commentaries on well-known Zen stories. "Zen is a
way of dissolving philosophical problems, not of solving them," he
explains. "It is a way of getting rid of philosophy, because philosophy is a
sort of neurosis." The volume also includes Osho's answers to questions
about the meditation technique of Zazen

 The Dhammapada : The Way Of The Buddha – 12 Volume


Set

Osho calls the incomparable Dhammapada sutras of Buddha, "the book of


books." He explains that these sutras are concerned with aspects of man's
unawareness, and that Buddha's whole message is concerned with the
raising of our consciousness. Entering into The Dhammapada with Osho is
to enter into a deep friendship of enlightened masters. These sutras were
compiled by Buddha's disciples to contain the essence of all his teachings.
This was the last turning of the Wheel of Dharma, 2,500 years ago. Osho's
commentaries on these sutras set the Wheel of Dharma in motion again.

Osho also answers questions from disciples and other seekers in alternate
discourses all generously sprinkled with stories, personal anecdotes and,
of course, a multitude of jokes. Visually this boxed set is stunning, without
doubt a collector's piece and twelve volumes to dive into for years to
come.

"Now that religion has become just a formality, and the burning messages
of the buddhas who have been on earth degraded to mere formal faith, the
message of Osho who has reached to such dazzling heights of human
consciousness through his own experience, is incomparable in its strength
to pierce the beauty within our hearts."

 Diamond Days With Osho

Ma Prem Shunyo's book tells the whole history of her discipleship from
the first moment, familiar to so many spiritual seekers, when she feels
that, despite a comfortable, successful life with everything she needs,
somehow, something is going to change.

She describes her first meeting with Osho and taking sannyas, becoming
his laundress and moving into his private house.She relates several
illuminating and often very funny episodes which beautifully illustrate
Osho's insistence on his "ordinariness."
Shunyo has the courage to expose herself in that she allows the reader to
be an intimate witness to all the emotions she experiences when Osho
"works" directly on her consciousness. What makes this book so special is
that love shines out of its pages--and love on a plane which many people
know exists but have never experienced.

"Ma Prem Shunyo's book has a lovely quality of both revealing glimpses
of higher energy-flow and her responses to down-to-earth events in her
life with Osho."

Amrita Pritam, Poetess

 The Diamond Sutra

Talks on Vajrachedika Prajnaparamita Sutra of Gautama the Buddha

The Sanskrit title of The Diamond Sutra translates as "the perfection of


wisdom which cuts like a thunderbolt." It is a record of the sayings of
Gautam the Buddha as recalled by his chief disciple, Ananda. Osho credits
Buddha with having contributed a religiousness, non-repressive and non-
ideological rather than a religion, and he gently prizes the essence of
Buddha's message from the confines of the formal.

"The way Osho is using language -- casual, provocative, iconoclastic -- is


really new."

 Dimensions Beyond The Known

A classic, reprinted in a beautiful new hardbound edition, this volume features talks
on such mysteries as what happens after death, reincarnation, and the esoteric roots of
religious experience. Osho also talks intimately about his own past life in Tibet 700
years ago, and the significance of his taking birth in the 20th century.

 The Discipline Of Transcendence VOL 1


Talks on Buddha's Sutra

Two thousand five hundred years have passed since Buddha delivered the
sutras on which this series is based. Using modern idiom, Osho extracts
the kernel of Buddha's profound insight and understanding and presents
his everlasting message to the contemporary reader in a manner that is
lucid, straightforward and humorous. In these discourses he discusses the
need for doubt and argument in the spiritual search, the nature of desire
and the discipline of non-attachment. He also answers questions about
individuality and universality, love, sex and marriage, false masters,
reincarnation, and more.
"The way Osho is using language--casual, provocative, iconoclastic—is
really new." Parmita, Buddhist Newsletter, Italy

 The Discipline Of Transcendence VOL 2

A manual for every seeker, this series of discourses features Osho


analyzing, step by step, the twenty potential obstacles on the spiritual path
as outlined by Gautam Buddha, and offering ways to go beyond them.

"He Osho is the greatest incarnation after Buddha in India. He is a living


Buddha."

Lama Karmapa, late head of the Kargyupta,


(or Red Hat) Sect of Tibetan Buddhism

 The Discipline of Transcendence VOL 3

Osho sees in Buddha's teachings a unique and mature message which is


uncompromising in its insistence on awareness as the basis of spiritual

seeker in mind, Osho explains Hinayana, Mahayana and Vajrayana the
three paths as set out by Gautam Buddha.

"He Osho is the greatest incarnation after Buddha in India. He is a living


Buddha."

Lama Karmapa, late head of the Kargyupta,


(or Red Hat) Sect of Tibetan Buddhism

 The Discipline of Transcendence VOL 4

An essential reader for every seeker. Osho comments on Buddha's


eightfold path, the ten "provisions" the seeker needs to carry with him and
on the ten states of consciousness that can lead to transformation. His
responses to questions from sannyasins and visitors cover the difference
between male and female energies, the greed for spiritual adventure and
experimentation, the inhibiting effect of contemporary education,
preoccupation with sex, the loss of identity and the need for self-
expression.

"He Osho is the greatest incarnation after Buddha in India. He is a living


Buddha."

Lama Karmapa, late head of the Kargyupta,


(or Red Hat) Sect of Tibetan Buddhism
 The Divine Melody

In this series of ten discourses Osho discusses some of the most


beautiful songs of Kabir. In one particularly fascinating discourse
Osho speaks on the seven chakras, the seven stages through which
each individual must pass, and a categorization according to which
chakra we function from. Another discourse examines love as "the
only miracle there is," and relationships. In addition, Osho answers
questions on subjects as diverse as homosexuality, prayer, being
oneself, the distinction between ego and individuality, trust, the
male and female within each individual, and humanity's addiction
to misery.

 Dogen, The Zen Master : A Search and a Fulfilment

This book is dedicated to the full moons. Not only is the moon a symbol
for the mirror of our consciousness, but it is also a transforming agent.
"The master is the possibility for this transformation...the universe our
university." The running theme of Dogen's message of 800 years is the
eternity of our consciousness, a consciousness with no limitations and that
exists through all changes of form. Something inner which moves from
one climate to another, which is beyond form, birth, death, beyond life,
which simply is, isness.

E
 Ecstasy: The Forgotten Language

Osho speaks on the exuberant poems of Kabir, as translated by India's


Nobel Prize-winning poet, Rabindranath Tagore. He also responds to
questions as diverse as the difference between relationship and aloneness,
mind and society, self and enlightenment, and explains the difference
between a crystallized self and a strong ego.

 The Empty Boat (Talks on the stories of Chuang Tzu)

Osho revitalizes the 3000-year-old Taoist message of self-realization


through the stories of the Chinese mystic, Chuang Tzu. He speaks about
the state of egolessness, "the empty boat"; spontaneity, dreams and
wholeness; living life choicelessly and meeting death with the same
equanimity. This beautiful edition overflows with the wisdom of one who
has realized that state of egolessness himself.
"Remarkable discourses...wise and clear...
an excellent, recommendable book."
Book Review, De Kaarsvlam

 Enlightenment: The only Revolution


Discourses on the great mystic Ashtavakra

"Powerful and penetrating discourses on the famous dialogue between the mystic
Ashtavakra -- one of Osho's favorite ancient Indian masters -- and King Janak. By
the end of the dialogue, King Janak is enlightened. Says Osho, "There are no
other statements anywhere as pure, transcendental and beyond time and space as
these."

"Man has many scriptures, but none are comparable to the Gita of Ashtavakra.
Before it the Vedas pale, the Upanishads are a mere whisper. Even the
Bhagavadgita does not have the mere majesty found in the Ashtavakra Samhita --
it is simply unparalleled. The most important thing is that neither society, nor
politics, nor any other institution of human life had any influence on the
statements of Ashtavakra.

"...If these words penetrate you, they will start awakening your sleeping soul.
These words will thrill you. These words will fill you with ecstasy. These words
will shock you. With these words a revolution can take place.... This is why I have
chosen the Ashtavakra Gita: I have chosen it because you are ready." Osho

 The Everyday Meditator: A Practical Guide

Meditation is no longer a pastime but a way of life. At work, play, in


heavy traffic, walking, loving, even eating, it is possible to meditate.
Doctors are now finding that meditation has a direct effect on health, sleep
and longevity. It has therefore a direct effect also on our happiness.

F
 Finger Pointing To The Moon

These seventeen talks were given at a meditation camp at Mount Abu,


Rajasthan. In this beautiful series on the seeds of wisdom, the upanishads,
Osho says, "This Upanishad is a direct encounter with spirituality. There
are no doctrines in it; there are only experiences of the fulfilled ones... In it
there is no discussion of that which is born out of curiosity or
inquisitiveness, no. In it there are hints to those who are full of longing for
liberation from those who have already attained liberation..."

"Osho is one of the most influential spiritual teachers of the second half of
the 20th century and many thousands of people -- of all ages, from all
countries and all spiritual backgrounds -- have been inspired by the
simplicity and directness of his teachings."

"Osho is one of the most influential spiritual teachers of the second half of
the 20th century and many thousands of people -- of all ages, from all
countries and all spiritual backgrounds -- have been inspired by the
simplicity and directness of his teachings."

 The First Principle

Osho introduces these discourses on Zen stories by explaining what the


first principle is: that which cannot be said. But it can be shown and
experienced as Osho demonstrates in talking on the often bizarre, always
maddeningly simple anecdotes about interchanges between Zen masters
and their disciples. He also talks on intellect and reason in the seeker's life,
spiritual greed and the real meaning of the Zen dictum to "kill" one's
master. Somehow Osho takes the enigmatic quality of Zen and shows us
its pragmatic truth, without robbing it of its inherent magic, charm or
humor.

 The Fish in The Sea is not thirsty

Commenting on the haunting songs of Kabir, Osho takes the reader to the
very core of the human dilemma, to the simple cause of misery and
unhappiness—man's illusion that he is separate from existence, his
inability to comprehend why the fish in the sea is not thirsty. He also talks
on emotions and being detached from them, aloneness and love, imitation,
children and religion, rebellion, living in a balanced way, sex, the
generation gap, and more.
"The clarity with which Osho expresses his thoughts, in an easy and direct
style, is remarkable. Reading him is a liberating experience which
everyone can reach."

 From Bondage To Freedomn


Answers to Seekers of the Path

A deeply moving account of a rare and provocative experiment in human


growth, these are Osho's last discourses given in the US. While most of his
disciples are experiencing the fruition of their efforts to manifest a living
community based on Osho's vision, a small, power-motivated group's
secret attempts to take control of the commune, poison Osho and his
doctor is revealed as they flee the country.

Through it all, Osho answers the questions of disciples and friends


devastated and confused by the wanton disregard of the few corrupted
people. His answers expose the truth with uncompromising compassion as
he talks on fascism, power games and individual responsibility. As always
Osho indicates how absolutely everything can be used by the seeker to
wake up and be more aware.

 From Darkness To Light

Education, according to Osho, is drawing out the hidden potential of the


individual, to help each person bring his own uniqueness from the darkness into
the light. In these talks he examines ways in which the institutions of society have
systematically done the opposite in their attempts to impose socially-acceptable
norms of behavior on everyone -- from the cradle to the grave both in public and
private life.

 From Death To Deathlessness


Answers to Seekers of the Path

Sensing the storm about to descend on his American commune, Osho responds to
residents' and visitors' questions. The topics cover the whole spectrum of human
concern -- poverty, AIDS, education, politics, creativity, existentialism,
psychology, nuclear war, power, relationships, money.... Osho answers each with
respect and compassion, always going beyond the surface of the rational mind to
the deeper waters, to the very source.

 From The False to the Truth


Answers to Seekers of the Path
Discourses to make the White House and the Vatican tremble. Powerful,
convincing and exposingly hilarious, Osho confronts the religious leaders
and government officials who eventually destroyed the commune in
America.

"Irreverent, wise, humorous, crazy, and ultimately very sane."The Book


Reader, USA

 From Ignorance to Innocence


Answers to Seekers of the Path

Most of us have quoted The Bible, been quoted at from The Bible, sworn
on The Bible, doubted The Bible, but how many of us have really
questioned its basic premise, that God exists: how much of what I've
accepted as my religion is related to my own experiences and has any
relevance to my day to day life?

Looking for the answers, we find our minds so full of ideas instilled from
birth - sin and guilt, reward and punishment, this world and the other,
somebody out there bigger than us who we should obey - it's almost
impossible to untangle the mess and start from scratch. In this series of
discourses Osho exposes our conditioned beliefs as a means by which to
help us experience life and its inherent religiousness from a fresh
perspective, with our own, individual eyes. A must for the thinking
Christian.

"You just don't read Osho, you undefine yourself."

The Book Reader, USA

 From Medication to Meditation

What is the connection between your "state of mind" and the state of your
health?
When top US scientists conclude, after years of reductionist denial, that
the mind and body are indeed one organ, the way is open for a totally new
way of looking at health and disease.
Here is a book written in a language that is fresh, profound, entertaining
and understandable for all those who wonder whether meditation can help
them enjoy better health and a greater sense of well-being.

"These brilliant insights will benefit all those who yearn for experimental
knowledge of the field of Pure Potentiality inherent in every human being.
This book belongs on every shelf of every library and in the home of all
those who seek knowledge of the higher self." Dr. Deepak Chopra, Author
of Ageless Body, Timeless Mind, Quantum Healing, and Unconditional
Life.

 From Misery to Enlightenment


Answers to Seekers of the Path

Of this question-and-answer series, a journalist from "Club Degi Editori,"


Italy writes:

"With complete clarity, and using examples, anecdotes and quotations


which amaze the reader with their range, Osho expresses his way of
thinking: to destroy every religion and to create Man all over again out of
his own depth of being. From Misery to Enlightenment provokes energy,
optimism and enthusiasm for life and its gifts. It is not a holy book, nor is
it a confession of faith. It is a lively and readable account which allows a
deep understanding of the vast scope of his teaching, which is directed
towards helping us understand who we are, and which is widely debated
and widely practiced."

 From Personality To Individuality


Answers to Seekers of the Path

Richly embroidered with hilarious personal reminiscences, this volume


covers the family, the place of mysticism in Osho's religion; the function
of the commune, madness and enlightenment; Krishnamurti, the
infallibility of the pope, and Osho's daily routine. These discourses make it
clear why Osho became the nemesis of established religious and political
hierarchies all over the world.

 From Sex To Superconsciousness

Three stages of sex -- physical, psychological and spiritual -- and provides


guidance on how this raw energy can be transformed into the realization of
ultimate consciousness. He explains that by repressing our basic nature,
sex takes roots in the unconscious, creating an unnatural obsession. It is
this psychic state that has produced much mental sickness and the
widespread perversity of society today. "Sex is man's most vibrant
energy," Osho says," but it should not be an end unto itself: sex should
lead man to his soul."

 From Unconsciousness to Consciousness

Osho's first words spoken after a period of three years of silence herald a
completely new dimension to his work. It is as if he has drawn a sword
and slices through the deceit of history. Man, his politics and so-called
religion are all totally exposed. Responding to questions solely from his
disciples, Osho talks on the psychology of a creed based on following; the
question of belief in God; whether Osho is a messiah or not; the attitude of
traditional holy men towards women; his understanding of the political
mind-set; how he feels about Communism, why his sannyasins lead such a
rich life, why their happiness is attributed to their being brainwashed or
hypnotized, and many more.

"You just don't read Osho, you undefine yourself."

G
 Glimpses Of A Golden Childhood

A beautiful new and hardbound edition of this all-time favorite in which


Osho recalls his rebellious and mischievous childhood in a wonderful
series of anecdotes and stories which include tales of the artists,
musicians, magicians and enlightened beings who befriended him as a
child.
The stories have an extraordinarily intimate quality which is reflected in
the 67 beautiful photographs included in the book. They give us a rare and
precious glimpse of the master in his daily life: sipping his morning tea or
sleeping in his bed.

"I've been charmed from reading his books." Federico Fellini

 God Is Dead, Now Zen is The Only Living Truth

Osho puts the finishing touches to his portrait of Friedrich Nietzsche with
answers to disciples' questions on the work, vision and madness of this
controversial philosopher. It is a perfect companion to Osho's two-volume
Zarathustra series. (See Western Mystics) .

"Certain London stores have the distinction of trading 'By Appointment' to


the Royal Family. Osho business should likewise be 'By Disappointment'
to Society, for the vital job of such teachers is to sniff out our self-
deceptions, both individual and cultural, and disillusion us." Guy Claxton,
Author of Noises From the Darkroom
(From Resurgence Magazine, No. 167)

 Golden Nuggets
This pocket-size book consists of 180 pages of telegraphic quotes extracted from
discourses on friendship, death, let-go, jealousy, totality, intelligence,
disobedience, love, hate, greed, and much more. Nothing of the inner world is
ignored in this distillation of Osho's wisdom. A beautiful and easily readable
introduction to Osho's vision. "A very nicely illustrated collection of Osho's
aphorisms." Chicago Review Press, USA

 The Golden Future

The most comprehensive and explicit collection of discourses available on Osho's


vision of the future. He explains what he means by the new man, and describes
his international society of communes. For anyone concerned about mankind's
future this book is not to be overlooked.

"As a result of reading The Golden Future (and many other works by Osho) I
would like to let you know that I completely and heartily support the vision of
Osho. As a writer I hope that his words will reach the hearts of those who need
them most. I have every faith in this result, because the words of Osho are loaded
with the power of love." Douwe de Groot, writer

 TheGolden Gate

Osho uses jokes to provide greater awareness. Responses to questions on


the dilemma of modern man address conditioning, prejudice and strategies
that close us to existence. A priest challenges Osho's statement that
religions have created sexual repression. One visitor asks whether he
should become a disciple and another if he always tells the truth!

 The Goose Is Out

The Zen koan, "The goose is out!" captures the whole absurdity of the
human condition how, throughout our lives, we remain voluntarily
ignorant of our true nature. In this book, his last responses to disciples'
questions before going into silence for three and a half years, Osho
penetrates the prejudices and beliefs we have gathered as our protection
against the truth. .

"You have forgotten the language of your being. I have come to recognize
it - I have remembered myself. And since the day I remembered myself I
have been in a strange situation: I feel compassion for you, and deep
down I also giggle at you, because you are not really in trouble. You don't
really need compassion, you need hammering, you need to be hit hard on
the head. Your suffering is bogus. Ecstasy is your very nature. You are
truth. You are love. You are bliss. You are freedom." Osho
"Osho has a no-mind to his comments, sudden bursts of insight,
novel ways of putting images together so that you read in
enchanted wonder. Any spiritual teacher who has such bad
publicity must be saying some wonderfully terrible things. Tune
in." The USA Book Reader

 The Great Challenge

The great challenge of Osho is not just a challenge, it is also an invitation


to delve into the inner world. Within this series of discourses is the
experience of a 20th-century buddha available through his response to
questions from people who sense there is more to life than meets the eye.
Osho covers it all: from God and faith to existence and consciousness,
from the miracles of Jesus to the materializations of Sai Baba, from
intellect and intelligence to the significance of the master-disciple
connection. This introduction to Osho's work includes the secret aspects of
spiritual traditions as well as talks on death, reincarnation and the
scientific foundation of his revolutionary technique, Dynamic Meditation.

 The Great Pilgrimage : From Here To Here

As the title indicates, there is, in reality, nowhere to go! In this


often hilarious and always profound collection of answers to
questions, Osho talks especially to the baby boomers as they
confront the onset of middle age. Questions relate to conditioning,
sex, middle age, music, women's rights and psychology. But no
matter what the subject, the questioner is always the subject under
discussion.

 The Great Secret

Osho uses ten of Kabir's incomparable songs that revolve around


"the beloved" -- the Sufi expression for the state of enlightenment.
Though Kabir lived several centuries ago, Osho creates a direct
link with him. Through his own innately musical expression he
enhances Kabir's message, rendering it accessible and relevant for
every contemporary seeker.

 The Great Zen Master Ta Hui

Reflections on the Transformation of an Intellectual to Enlightenment

Osho tells of the progression of Ta Hui, a well-known Chinese Zen teacher


of the 7th century, from his intellectual understanding of Buddhist
scriptures to buddhahood. An extraordinary series of discourses which
takes the reader from a space where most seekers may be to their potential.

 The Grass Grows By Itself

Osho discusses how Zen came into being and describes the remarkable people
who spread it across the vastness of the Asian continent. This book contains great
stories about Lao Tzu, Bodhidharma, Confucius, Bokuju and others. Osho's
humor and insight give the reader a feeling of timelessness, as though the reader
has come to Lao to ask about "the way," is being shocked by Bodhidharma's
spontaneous totality or is being awakened by Seddyo's kaon. And of course, Osho
himself...a mystic's mystic!

Japan's Mainichi Shinbun calls Osho "the most exciting religious figure of today,
and one who is widely read in this country."

 Guida Spirituale

The Desiderata is one of the smallest and most potent collections of verse.
Osho places it on a par with Nietzsche's Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Omar
Khayyam's Rubaiyat and Kahlil Gibran's The Prophet, and sees it a
significant companion for those on the path. In sixteen discourses Osho
speaks on these timeless verses and answers a wide range of questions.

 The Guest

A flame in the medium of Kabir's exquisite and timeless love poems, Osho
speaks on the inner lover, and the art of becoming a host, receptive and
available, to the Guest who resides within. He also talks on a wide range
of subjects -- from greed, unworthiness, jealousy, sex in old age, children
and intelligence, children and the facts of life, to fear of exposing oneself,
God, and being a loner.

H
 Hari Om Tat Sat: The Divine Sound – That is Truth

Responding to a wide variety of questions, Osho gives straight talk on


touchy subjects, including a full coverage of the global crisis. This series
takes a no-nonsense look at the controversial implications of
homosexuality and the future of artificial intelligence. Osho is as
compassionate, lyrical and funny as ever about relationships, our need to
be special, and the newcomer's bewilderment over the apparent
contradiction between freedom and having a master. All of Osho is here
from heart to hammer.

 The Heart Sutra


Talks on The Prajnaparamita Hridayam Sutra

Discourses on the Heart Sutra, the Prajnaparamita Hridayam Sutra of


Gautam the Buddha reveal his essential teachings: the merging of negative
and positive, the insubstantiality of the ego, and the buddha-nature of all
of existence. In his inimitable way Osho brings these archaic yet
invaluable insights right to the doorstep of the contemporary inquirer. He
also speaks on the seven chakras and the corresponding facets in man—
the physical, psychosomatic, psychological, psycho-spiritual, spiritual,
spiritual-transcendental and transcendental.

"Treatises on Buddhism are often dry and reverential, if not tediously


scholastic, and if Osho's treatment is not canonical, it compensates by
throbbing with life, humor, penetrating insight and the continual
provocation to think for oneself."

Guy Claxton, Author of


Noises from the Darkroom

 HeartBeat Of The Absolute


Discourses on the Ishavasya Upanishad

In these discourses Osho gave during a meditation camp, sutras from these
ancient Sanskrit scriptures are transmuted into stunning insights that can
open the reader's eyes to his own inner reality. Osho speaks on issues that
touch the heart and intellect of every individual: love and possessiveness,
our investment in forgetting the phenomenon of death and the nature of
the mind are amongst but a few. He also gives practical suggestions how
to prepare for meditation and how to extract the most from the meditation
techniques.

"These books are really what people are looking for...they are even more
relevant now than when they were spoken." Michael Mann, Chairman of
Element Books

 Hidden Mysteries

A compilation of previously unpublished talks, Hidden Mysteries, contains


some astonishing revelations on the true significance of a number of
esoteric subjects including astrology, the meaning behind various temples,
statues, and other places of pilgrimage, and how mantras were originally
intended to be used.

"The significance of temples, statues, places of pilgrimage, incense,


mantras and astrology, have all been debased or lost over thousands of
years. There are many keys in life which can open the doors of treasures
even today, but unfortunately we neither know anything about these
treasures nor about the locks which may be opened. And if we do not
know either about the treasures nor the locks, then what is left in our
hands cannot even be called a key. It can only be a key if it opens a lock."
Osho

 The Hidden Splendor

Osho unfolds the basic search for childlike innocence, joy, playfulness,
fearlessness...a state of being which Osho describes as our hidden
splendor. He underlines the reality of a world heading toward self-
destruction and calls on the reader to work to help to change its course
before it is too late

 The Hidden Harmony – Discourses On Heraclitus

Heraclitus says, "The hidden harmony is better than the obvious.


Opposition brings concord. Out of discourse comes the fairest harmony. It
is in changing that things find repose." Osho weaves together the
fragments of the Greek mystic Heraclitus to reveal the startling
implications of the difference between logic, Aristotle's intellectual
doctrine about what is true; and logos, the existential experience of truth
which Heraclitus lived.

 Hsin Hsin Ming – The Book Of Nothing

Discourses on Sosan's Verses on the Faith-Mind

"Sosan was a man of power, a man who has come to know. And when he
says something, he carries something of the unknown into the world of the
known. With him enters the divine, a ray of light into the darkness of your
mind." Osho

These are not just commentaries on the teachings of an ancient Zen


master. Here is an alive, contemporary Zen master at work - and as the
meaning of Sosan's teachings are unraveled, so are the habitual patterns
and prejudices of the reader's mind. Furthermore, Osho's work is so subtle
and delicate, the surgery is performed almost before you know it. As you
turn the last page, you may suddenly realize that you'll never be quite so
captivated by your own inner chatter - and without any effort you've taken
the first, vital step towards meditation.

 Hyakujo – The Everest Of Zen With Basho’s Haikus

Hyakujo's greatest contribution to Zen was the monasteries, where


thousands of people gathered together with a single direction, toward what
Zen calls The Ultimate Experience. And his motto: "One day without
working, one day without food." No holy charity here; work and
meditation go hand in hand. He also created the Chinese Tea Ceremony
where something so ordinary as drinking tea becomes a meditation. But
more than simply chronicles of a past master, here we see Osho "hitting" a
disciple in front of the assembled thousands at the evening meditation, and
we experience the depths of her response. Such was the intensity of this
that Osho dedicated the book to her, a book that is truly "living Zen" and a
must for everyone who is remotely interested in the ways of a Zen master.

I
 I am The Gate

This book is a timeless classic that has served as an introduction for many
people to Osho's vision. Eight discourses to push the reader over the edge
of the intellect into the mysterious, the esoteric and the transcendental.
Osho talks on the meaning of initiation, disciplehood and meditation -- a
loving invitation to begin the journey toward the ultimate truth: "A
sannyasin to me is a person who decides to live to the utmost, to the
optimum, to the maximum; it is just like a flame burning from both the
poles." A helpful reader for those new to the world of Osho.

 I am That
Discourses on the Isa Upanishad

"This Upanishad...is the smallest it can be written on a postcard and yet it


is the greatest document in existence," Osho declares. "There is no
document of such luminosity, of such profoundness anywhere in the whole
history of humanity." These sutras are amongst the most ancient wisdom
available to mankind transmitted from masters to their disciples twenty-
five centuries before even Buddha. With clear metaphors, stories and
jokes, we are introduced to the perspective of an enlightened master a
world view so total that it embraces the cosmic, a rebirth of the spirit of
the Upanishads.
"He (Osho) makes you free from the existing mind set...he is inclusive, not
exclusive." The High Commissioner for India to Singapore

 I Celebrate Myself – God Is Nowhere, Life is Now Here

"I celebrate myself, and I want you also to celebrate yourself," says Osho,
echoing the American poet, Walt Whitman. In this powerful series Osho
destroys all misconceptions of a divided universe; creator and created,
believer and belief, theist and atheist: "The idea of God is an
imprisonment, and only when one is free from this prison can one know
what it is to live in a celebrative way."

 Impressions – Osho Commune International

250 color photographs of Osho Commune International in Poona


illustrating virtually every activity.

Osho Multiversity, Osho Basho sports and leisure complex, Creative Arts
events, the newly-built black granite pyramids, and Osho Teerth Park, an
exquisite 12-acre nature park.
The book also contains many quotes about Osho's vision, taken from his
discourses.

 India My Love – Fragments Of A Golden Past

Beautifully illustrated with photos of some of India's most sacred places, India
My Love is a mystery tour with Osho as guide and storyteller. In its pages we are
taken on a journey through India's golden past, and into its haunting presence.
Along the way we are introduced to beggars and kings, wise men and fools, lovers
and warriors, artists and scholars, and learn how each of them has contributed to
the rich tapestry of mysticism and mystery that makes up India's unique
contribution to the search for truth.

This country has been one-pointed, with a single goal: how human
consciousness can be evolved to a point where it meets with the divine...
Naturally, it has created a tremendous energy field around the country. It
is all over the place, you just have to be ready....
"And down the centuries, seekers have been coming to this land from all
over the world. The country is poor, the country has nothing to offer, but
to those who are sensitive it is the richest place on the earth. But the
richness is of the inner. This poor country can give you the greatest
treasure that is possible for human beings."
 The Inner Journey

A practical guidebook for the seeker.

For the inner traveler, The Inner Journey describes what is needed for a
seeker to clear the path that returns to the self. It is a precise manual for
creating inner balance and harmony that will pave the way for the
experience of meditation.
The complete science of the hara
Full of techniques to: relax the mind, tune the heart, drop into the hara
center.
Detailed guidance on how to approach food, work, and sleep as tools for
enlightenment."Fearlessness is the total presence of fear, with the courage
to face it.""The navel (hara) is the center of willpower. The more activated
the navel is, the more intense the willpower becomes and the more you
can attain the determination, the power, the life-energy to do something."
Osho

 In Search Of The Miraculous vol 1

Osho gives detailed instructions for his revolutionary Dynamic


Meditation. He also answers questions about his Kundalini technique and
shaktipat the transfer of energy from master to disciple. A fascinating read

says, "not something belonging to religious superstitions."

notch." Marianne Williamson, author of A Return to Love:
Reflections on the Principles of 'A Course in Miracles

 The Invitation

An invitation and introduction to Osho's vision. Lacing his talks with


jokes and personal anecdotes, Osho shows how the problems of everyday
life can be used as tools for transformation. He also speaks on the
connection between a master and his disciple, describing the role of the
master as simply an invitation to return home—to ourselves.

"He quotes Jesus, Buddha, Mahavira, Lao Tzu, Sufis and old Zen masters
with stupendous memory, interpreting them with a freshness and
directness as if they were speaking today, as if they wore jeans." Die Zeit,
Germany

 I Say Unto You: Vol 1 Talks on The Sayings Of Jesus

Casting aside age-old preconceptions, Osho reveals the real magic and
miracles of Jesus. He tells the same stories the same parables, but with a
freshness and liveliness showing us their deeper meaning, their timeless
relevance. For the first time we really feel the laughter, the passion, the
silence and celebration of Jesus Christ.

"Osho's position as an important mystic and philosopher is supported by


an international following and a host of publications. His work is that of
all great religious leaders—bringing God to man...Osho's lively appeal:
jokes, limericks, verse, and tales combined with traditional religious
themes." Library Journal, USA

 I Say Unto You, Vol 2

Osho talks on the beauty and wisdom of Jesus' sayings, and responds to
questions about Catholicism, Jesus' relationship with Mary Magdalena, sin
and punishment, hedonism, the desire to serve, the difference between
mind and ego and India's tardiness in recognizing Osho.

"Osho's position as an important mystic and philosopher is supported by


an international following and a host of publications. His work is that of
all great religious leaders -- bringing God to man...{Osho's}lively appeal:
jokes, limericks, verse, and tales combined with traditional religious
themes." Library Journal, USA

 Isan: No Footprints In The Empty Sky

Our eyes are clouded with words, our minds full of doctrines and
ideologies, our whole upbringing and education focused on how to leave
the biggest footprints, how to leave our mark. Osho lures the inimitable
Zen master Isan out of the obscurity of thirteen hundred years and
illuminates his teaching: "To cut all this rubbish like a sword, in a single
blow, without hesitation, and the whole sky is yours, the whole expanse of
the universe is yours."

 I Teach Religiousness Not Religion

A slim paperback that goes to the root of the failure of traditional religion

J
 Journey To The Heart – Discourses On The Sufi Way

Osho entices us to the unknown, the Ultimate. This journey is the greatest
adventure open to man. It is one which requires the greatest daring, and
one in which we have to risk our all. For, as the Sufis say, "Man must die
before he dies"—die to the ego to be reborn to life. Revitalizing well-
known Sufi stories, Osho talks about the ego as a barrier to one's true self,
the value of meditation, the difference between knowledge and wisdom,
the connection between happiness and unhappiness,, the beauty of
sadness, and love as a transformative force.

"One of the ten people—along with Gandhi, Nehru


and Buddha—who have changed the destination of
India." Sunday Mid-day, India

 Joshu: The Lions Roar

"A hair's breadth of difference, and what happens?" Joshu is asked. There
is no intellectual answer to the Koans of Zen, no approximate answer and
no amount of intellect to be applied: "Heaven and earth are far away."
Only by authenticity can we rise in consciousness. And as this Lion's Roar
of Joshu resounds through almost twelve centuries, so is its message more
urgent. Through these symbolic Zen dialogues and the existential language
of Haikus, Osho urges his reader not to be lukewarm, but single-pointed in
the search for our authenticity. This book is full of clues...hints and
pointers how to "begin" as Osho puts it, how to bring this search into our
everyday lives, and in very simple ways how to begin meditating.

 Just Like That

With humor and sensitivity Osho brings traditional Sufi stories into
the 20th century, revealing the hidden dimensions of Sufism. He
distinguishes between need and desire, expertise and existential
experience, and talks on the nature of the ego, the importance of
trust and the stages of growth in one's evolution. Set out in poetic
format, each discourse features beautiful photographs of the Sufi
meditation technique of whirling.

 Jesus Crucified Again: This Time In Ronald Reagan’s


America

This special selection of discourses reveals the amazing details behind the
demise of Osho's commune in America and his persecution by the US
government.

Here is a city under siege, innocent people not being tolerated because of
the success of a lifestyle that threatens the status quo, and a plot to destroy
a living enlightened master. Substantiated with chapters by attorneys,
doctors, and law enforcement officers, this book is a passionate indictment
of the hypocrisy of American "democracy."

"I want that man right back in India, never to be seen or heard of again."
US Attorney General, Edwin Meese III

K
 Krishna: The Man and His Philosophy

The Indian mystic Krishna lived many centuries ago, yet in him Osho sees
a man way ahead of his time, whose time, even now, is still to come.
Where most orthodox religions are anti life, his revolutionary insight is
that a really religious life is one that is enjoyed and embraced fully.
This series of discourses is devoted entirely to questions from seekers, and
in his responses Osho gives glimpses of the vast joy that is found when
life is embraced fully and how the reader can discover this joy. And he
says: "Krishna is utterly incomparable, he is so unique.... He belongs to
the future. Man has yet to grow to that height where he can be a
contemporary of Krishna's. Only in some future time will we be able to
understand him and appreciate his virtues."

 Kyozan: A True Man Of Zen

Kyozan was such a simple and ordinary man that, as his own master put it,
if it was possible for him to become enlightened, then it is possible for
anyone. These discourses—based on anecdotes about Kyozan's life and on
a selection of exquisite haikus—are filled with that promise. Osho uses
Kyozan's life to make Zen as accessible to the contemporary seeker as
preparing a cup of tea.

L
 The Language Of Existence

Nine discourses based on anecdotes of famous and little-known Zen


masters. Many of these stories were previously only available in Japanese
and were translated specially for this series of talks. In his discussion of
these stories Osho gives meditation techniques to help understand and go
beyond death, as well as techniques to be used in everyday life. This book
also contains Osho's most radical insights into the problem of drugs and he
presents a revolutionary solution.

 The Last Testament Vol 1

At Rancho Rajneesh, the commune in America, for the first time ever
Osho grants interviews to the world media. Included are questions from
Good Morning America, Der Spiegel, 60 Minutes (Australia), The
Guardian (England), Panorama (Italy), Portland TV, the Seattle Post
Intelligencer and others.

In dynamic, often humorous and always intimate exchanges, Osho talks


with reporters about why he chose to break his years of silence, his views
on the Pope, how the world can save itself from global suicide, his being
labeled the "free sex guru," AIDS and religion; why his people are
perceived as having an inner peace, brainwashing, separation between
Church and State, the City of Rajneeshpuram, and the famous 93 Rolls
Royces. A book of particular interest to non-sannyasins or those new to
sannyas.

 Light On The path (Talks in The Himalayas)

These first talks after Osho's departure from the US provide a rare
glimpse, during his movement's most uncertain times, into his efforts to
create a New Man. From his suite in a hotel in Kathmandu, Nepal, Osho
speaks extensively on the connection between gnosticism and anarchy, the
buddhafield and the future of his communes worldwide, the function of a
spiritual master, his sannyasin therapists and the "psychology of the
buddhas," and the nature of inner growth.
 Live Zen

Osho speaks on incidences in the work and play between an assortment of


Zen masters and their disciples. Each discourse culminates in a specially
designated joke-telling time. This series also sees the introduction of the
powerful new No-mind Meditation conducted by Osho.

 Ma Tzu: The Empty Mirror

He walked like a cow and looked like a tiger. He could touch his nose with
his tongue and had two rings on the soles of his feet! The unpredictable
Ma Tzu brings fresh responses and devices to every situation, the empty
mirror who simply reflects. To see things as they really are, you have to be
absolutely empty, a mirror, clean, without any prejudices, without any
judgments. And that is Ma Tzu's whole teaching: Don't react, just be, and
reflect.

 Meditation: The Art Of Ecstasy

In a series of discourses especially of help for the beginner, Osho clears up


the misconception about the relationship of concentration to meditation.
He also underscores the point that meditation is a not serious business; on
the contrary it opens up the dimension of lightheartedness, joy, play and
creativity within each person.
Making meditation immediately accessible for the newcomer, Osho
suggests a variety of techniques specially designed for today's seeker. He
also provides detailed descriptions of each stage of his own revolutionary
meditation technique, Dynamic Meditation. Included is an appendix
highlighting Osho's other radical meditation techniques, as well as other
meditative and traditional therapies.

 Meditation: The First And Last Freedom

Why does Osho call meditation "the first and last freedom"? Because in his
understanding meditation is the dimension through which every individual can
realize his own, unique potential, the unlimited personal freedom that is available
to all of us. This book is a compilation drawn from Osho's many years of work on
meditation. It contains a wide variety of over 60 meditation techniques -- some
traditional, like Zazen, the ancient Buddhist practice, others are Osho's unique
formula especially designed for the 21st-century seeker. In addition, Osho
answers questions about some of the more common obstacles meditators may
meet along the way. An invaluable companion for any seeker.
"Osho advocated meditation for everyone, but his technique was revolutionary,
beginning not with stillness and silence but with violent activity to release pent-up
energy and emotions, leading to a state of calmness in which meditation can
flourish." The Washington Post

 Meditation: The First And Last Freedom, Paperback


 The Cloud of Unknowing, the third eye, Nirvana, peace: The way to understand
and experience these states is through discipline of mind and body, study, and
continuous gestures of courage. All methods of meditation call upon essential
components: relaxation, watchfulness, and embracing a nonjudgmental attitude.
The construction of the techniques may differ, but the fundamentals do not
change.

This book is a practical, step-by-step guide to sixty-three meditation


techniques, selected by and/or created by Osho. Meditation techniques
range from the ancient Buddhist, Taoist, Sufi, and Hindu practices to
Osho's own systems, the Dynamic Meditation and the Mystic Rose
Meditation-both developed specifically for the needs of twentieth-century
persons.

Osho understanding is that modern man, so burdened with the outmoded


traditions of the past and distracted by the particular anxieties of the
present, must go through a cleansing process before he can enjoy the states
necessary for true meditation. So, in addition to classical techniques, Osho
guides the initiate through to modern technique.

This truly instructional and inspirational text encourages the subject to


celebrate with music and dance, and to carry his or her aliveness in all
activities.

"Osho advocated meditation for everyone, but his technique was


revolutionary, beginning not with stillness and silence but with violent
activity to release pent-up energy and emotions, leading to a state of
calmness in which meditation can flourish." The Washington Post

 Meditation On Tao

"Toaism is not a religion in the ordinary sense of the term.


It is not a so-called religion.
It is authentically religious"

In his discourses on Tao, Osho speaks of the basics of Taoist life: wholeness and the
importance and difficulty of attaining balance, or remaining in the middle. He asks, "Why
be a part, a tiny part, when you can be the whole? Don't be the ego. When you can
become the divine, why be satisfied with such a small, tiny, ugly thing?"

"Osho's position as an important mystic and philosopher is supported by


an international following and a host of publications. His work is that of
all great religious leaders - bringing God to man."
Library Journal

 Meditation On Yoga

"Yoga means the meeting of the two into one.


In Christianity mystics have called it Unio Mystica:
the mysterious union."

In these discourses, Osho paints a totally different picture of Yoga than


we know in the West. According to Osho, Yoga - the Science of the Soul -
is not about twisting the body into strange looking positions. It's about
help for anyone interested in embarking on the most miraculous journey of
scientific discovery ever: man's effort to move from his circumference to
his center, to travel from his body inwards to his soul. This program offers
a new brand of science, the science of attaining one's soul.

"(Osho) is certainly a religious man, an intelligent human, and one of


those rare humans expressing himself with joy." Paul reps, author of Zen
Flesh, Zen Bones

 Meditation On Zen

"Life is a mystery,
and there is nothing to explain
because everything is just open,
in front of you.
Encounter it! Meet it! Be courageous!
That is the whole standpoint of Zen"

In these discourses, Osho takes us on a fascinating journey. Beginning with the


birth and flowering of Zen, he goes on to eloquently expound on Zen's teachings
and meanings, including the letting go of knowledge, which brings us to true
knowing, and the letting go of thought and mind, which brings us to clarity of no-
mind and samadhi.
"Osho is not trying to purvey information, but a truth that bypasses conscious
thought and all that belongs to it, just as the most important activities of human
beings bypass the mind."Bernard Levin, The Times (London)

 The Message Beyond Words

A Dialogue with the Lord of Death

Discourses on the Kathopanishad

The Kathopanishad is the ancient Indian scripture that has been used much
like the Tibetan Bardo, to help the dying on their way. The upanishad tells
the story of a small boy, Nachiketa, who is sent by his father to Yama, the
Lord of Death. With his innocent and sincere questions, the boy learns
from Yama the deepest secrets of death and immortality. Osho's
commentary on this mysterious and touching story brings light and clarity
to an inevitability that touches us all.

 The Messiah Vol 1


Commentaries on Kahlil Gibran's The Prophet

Early in this century a Lebanese poet, Kahlil Gibran, produced a book that
has become universally known and loved for its beauty and the timeless
themes it addresses. But because Gibran was a poet, not a mystic, in The
Prophet he could give us only a work of imagination, a glimpse into the
dream that is the mystic's everyday reality. The Messiah, Osho's two-
volume commentary on The Prophet, must find itself as a companion to
Gibran's work in the hands of every lover of truth and beauty.

In this volume Osho speaks on the themes that Gibran addresses through
the fictional prophet, Almustafa: love, children, giving, work; eating and
drinking, and clothes; joy and sorrow; houses and homes, buying and
selling; crime and punishment.

 The Messiah Vol 2


Commentaries on Kahlil Gibran's "The Prophet"

Early in this century a Lebanese poet, Kahlil Gibran, produced a book that
has become universally known and loved for its beauty and the timeless
themes it addresses. But because Gibran was a poet, not a mystic, in The
Prophet he could give us only a work of imagination, a glimpse into the
dream that is the mystic's everyday reality. The Messiah, Osho's two-
volume commentary on The Prophet, must find itself as a companion to
Gibran's work in the hands of every lover of truth and beauty.

Essentially Osho "uses" writings that are well known and much loved as a
medium to express his own understanding of man and his relationship to
life. When his own experience affirms the expressions of other mystics
and poets, Osho endorses them, and where he feels they fall short or
misrepresent the truth, he does not hesitate to say so. In all cases his love
for those who have devoted their life energies to the search of truth and the
expression of their findings is evident.

 The Miracle

In this unique world of Zen, masters with strange sounding names and
even stranger behavior ask disciples odd questions and then hit them—
whether their answers are right or wrong! Osho deciphers the great game
Zen masters play with their disciples and elucidates the central message of
Zen—"nothingness." He also talks on students and disciples, and the role
of a spiritual master and how the energy field of an enlightened being can
affect the whole world

 Mojud: The Man with The In explicable Life

A beautifully illustrated, coffee table volume. A Sufi story of which Osho


says, "If you can understand this story, you will have understood the very
secret of religion."

Chapter Titles:

Each Man Is a Man of Bright Prospects --

Osho
 More Gold Nuggets

An exquisite collection of nuggets of wisdom on life, love and the world around
us. Osho is captured in his gentlest and most penetrating mode. Richly illustrated
with paintings and photographs, the book explores contemporary life and its
everyday cares through the eyes of a realm higher than the mind. Distilled from
more than a hundred discourses, this book is a comprehensive survey of "being in
the world but not of it."

"This is a beautiful volume of visuals, elegantly and delicately arranged; short


selections of quotes to fill in the mountains, the bamboo shoots, the clouds."The
Book Reader, USA

 A Must For Morning Contemplation

The selections in this volume are taken from previously unpublished "darshan
diaries" -- transcripts of intimate dialogues between Osho, his disciples and others
who came seeking his insight. At Osho's suggestion the book is specifically
designed to be read upon waking.
The morning contemplations are uplifting and inspiring, encouraging a lively
participation in the day to come. The book is illustrated throughout with
photographs and is bound with exquisite full-color end papers.

 A Must For Contemplation Before Sleep

The selections in this volume are taken from previously unpublished "darshan
diaries". -- transcripts of intimate dialogues between Osho, his disciples and
others who came seeking his insight. At Osho's suggestion the book is specifically
designed to be read before entering sleep. The evening contemplations remind the
reader of the beauty and significance of relaxation, expansion, melting, letting go.
The book is illustrated throughout with photographs and is bound with exquisite
full-color end papers.

 The Mustard Seed

Commentaries on the teachings of Jesus as recorded by the Apostle


Thomas. Osho takes these sayings out of their narrower Christian context,
and blends their wisdom with the rich threads of Eastern traditions of
mysticism, thereby showing the truly universal nature of Jesus' teachings.

"One of the great blessed spiritual masters of today, Osho is the one who
speaks clearest on the role of energy expanding and fulfilling people's
consciousness. The book deals entirely with the power of energy." Gabriel
Rosenstock, Comhar, Irish review magazine.
 The Mystery And The Poetry Of The beyond

Through enigmatic Zen anecdotes and questions from his disciples, Osho
exposes the narrow-mindedness of organized religions and sheds new light
on the ecological and social crises of today.

 My Way, The Way Of The White Clouds

A comprehensive introduction to the world of Osho. In an intimate setting


he responds directly to questions on happiness and misery, relationship
and aloneness, ego and consciousness, energy and sex, love and prayer,
logic and madness, meditation and surrender, enlightenment and the
master-disciple connection. An ever-popular series of discourses
beautifully designed.

N
 Nansen: The Point Of Departure

Based on the anecdotes of Nansen, the poetry of Sekiso and the questions
of a disciple, this series of talks is penetrated by Osho's love for the radical
revolutionary depicted in the courageous innovator Nansen and his
insistence that the spiritual is not apart from the material, The Point of
Departure. Challenging the reader to be a whole person, not denying
anything, Osho continually hits us with the Zen stick of his wit,
encouraging us to "transform everything, including everything in your
spiritual growth."

 The New Alchemy To Turn You On

Containing talks from two early meditation camps, this volume features
Osho speaking on the theosophist, Mabel Collins. He speaks of the
intensity and totality needed by meditators, the relationship between sex
and death, the role of the master, and pain caused by active meditations.
He also answers basic questions such as, Why meditate? Why seek? What
is the difference between mind and consciousness...between surrender and
blind faith? How can I be wholehearted in meditation? He answers many
specific questions about his different techniques. The appendix, Catharsis
and Meditation: Steps on the Path, presents Osho's reasons for cathartic
techniques.
"No one is more qualified to introduce the mystics than Osho, a man who
stands out even in their exalted company. He speaks from his own
experience, bringing his mystic predecessors to life, making them his
contemporaries." John Lilly

 The New Dawn

A many-faceted series of discourses in which Osho dismantles a great


variety of questions from disciples. One asks: With the imminent
possibility of global suicide isn't it a paradox that all we can do is to sit
silently? Another worries about the misuse of genetic science, and a third
isn't sure how to respond to the madness of living in the world. And there
are many questions of the heart: about feelings of unworthiness; how to
make the transition from loneliness; to aloneness and what we learn from
love. Osho's responses are applicable to everyone, everywhere, who is
sincerely seeking to understand and to evolve.

"Never before or after have I encountered anybody having such a


harmonious and immensely creative view encompassing art, science,
human psychology and religiousness. Certainly we would lack
substantially without his vision of the new man." Dr. A. Schleger, Ph.D.,
Institute of Technology, Switzerland

 Nirvane: The Last Nightmare

Why does Osho call the desire for nirvana, enlightenment, "the last
nightmare"? Because, he says, all desire, all hope is the nightmare.
Through Zen stories and responses to seekers' questions, Osho speaks on
the nature of desire, the disease of comparison, man's compulsive need to
"do," macrobiotics, being creative with work, and the chronic state of
schizophrenia inflicted upon mankind by the organized religions.

 No Mind, The Flowers Of Eternity

This beautifully presented volume chronicles twelve days of upheaval in


the life of Osho and his disciples as he returns from a long period of
illness to announce that he is dropping his former name, Bhagwan Shree
Rajneesh. Using anecdotes about Zen masters and their disciples, as well
as a magnificent selection of haikus, Osho reveals the mystery of Zen as
something to be savored rather than solved.
He then confirms the assertion of a Japanese seeress that he has become a
vehicle for the wandering soul of Gautama the Buddha, who has promised
to return to the world as Maitreya, the friend. A landmark of a book,
intriguing and amusing.
 Notes Of A Madman

Osho creates a loosely woven tapestry of vivid, humorous and touching


impressions and glimpses giving the feeling we are having a personal
meeting with the master. In this deep exploration of the Tibetan mantra,
Om Mani Padme Hum, he comments on drugs, his love of beauty and
danger, relaxation, laughter, the relationship between men and women, and
even madness and death. Osho tells us he is just an ordinary human being,
like us, but with one exception. His search has ended, he has awakened:
"Just to be oneself is true. That is my teaching, just to be yourself; just to
be your own purity, without fear, because it will mean different things for
different people." A selection of beautiful nature photographs in full color
supplements this unforgettable book.

"He was a guru unencumbered by tradition, an enlightened master who


could quote Heidegger,and Sartre, and who furthermore believed in
technology, capitalism and sex..." The Washington Post

 No Water, No Moon

Brimming with paradox and humor, Osho is guaranteed to shake shock


and delight with these discourses based on Zen stories. This book is about
sudden enlightenment—that supreme moment when we cease struggling
to understand with our minds matters beyond the mind, and jump
wholeheartedly into the abyss. Osho offers us deep insights into ourselves,
our individual natures and the universe in which we live.

"I found No Water, No Moon one of the most refreshing, cleansing and
delightful books I could imagine. It is a book which will never cease to be
a comforting companion." Yehudi Menuhin

 Nowhere To Go But In
 In this book Osho speaks on themes such as the nature of enlightenment, the
seeking of spiritual powers, the relationship between meditation and love; on love
and marriage, marriage and sex, sex as a meditation and Tantra.
In explaining a meditation technique called "tratak," Osho says it is "an
experiment in just looking. It can be done under the open sky, in nature -- looking
without mentally processing the images on the eye. In a short while you will find
that the outside sky has entered you; that the sky outside and the sky within you
have merged to become the great sky...all boundaries have disappeared."

"Osho is an enlightened master who is working with all possibilities to


help humanity overcome a difficult phase in developing consciousness.
The Dalai Lama

"Osho is a mystical giant, a flowering of a unique intelligence and


one of those rare humans ex-pressing himself with joy." Paul Reps,
author of Zen Flesh, Zen Bones.

P
 A Passage To America

American journalist, Max Brecher has followed Osho's trail from


Charlotte, North Carolina, where he was arrested, to Oklahoma City
where he was held in jail and then to Oregon itself.
This book features interviews with all the key people involved
including a professional assassin approached by authorities to kill
Osho. The book is brimming over with hard facts and candid
interviews that show how Osho was persecuted by the Ronald Reagan
Administration.

 The Path Of Love

Osho discourses on the songs of Kabir

Osho has said that history, as taught in schools, is a history of


criminals like Genghis Khan, Tamerlane, Hitler.... The real history
is the evolution of consciousness created by enlightened masters.
To re-write history, Osho introduces to us the great mystics of the
world.

In his book The Path of Love, are the exquisite songs of the
fifteenth century mystic Kabir, with Osho's enlightened
interpretation.
Each great master has his own fragrance and way of teaching.
Kabir is unique in that, as an orphan, he came from a poor
background. He was adopted by a spiritual teacher, and later
became a weaver by trade; he married and took care of his family.
After he became the much beloved master of thousands of
disciples, he continued to weave, taking his cloth to the market and
greeting customers personally.

"Osho is the rarest and most talented religionist to appear in this


century. His interpretations are saturated with the truth of
Buddhism." Kazuyoshi Kino
Professor of Buddhist Studies, Tokyo

 The Path Of Meditation

If a beginner were to choose one book that would introduce him to


Osho and meditation, this is it! The Path of Meditation is a newly-
released, strikingly-designed and compact volume, fittingly subtitled,
"a step-by-step guide to meditation".

Osho introduces us to the most fundamental steps of meditating,


starting with guidance related to diet, exercise and sleep. Then he talks
about the body, thoughts and emotions, and how they can be purified
to help us move into meditation. For the reader already familiar with
Osho's vision and his many books, The Path of Meditation is a
precious new resource, revealing treasures never brought to light
before. With its uniquely intimate flavor, one feels as if one is actually
present and participating in this early meditation camp at which these
discourses were delivered, in Mahabaleshwar, India. This book cannot
be recommended too highly: a must for the home of every meditator!

 The Path Of The Mystic


Talks on the science of the esoteric

This book is one of the most remarkable series of discourses on the


esoteric ever delivered by Osho. Examining arcane subjects,
including his own use of a form of Tibetan hypnosis called Bardo,
Osho shares his wisdom on such topics as hypnosis and
dehypnosis, out-of-the-body experiences, the seven layers of man's
consciousness and techniques to help enter and to bring the
unconscious mind to light. He also speaks on his Mystery School,
and the role it will have in the development of a new humanity.

 Tao: The Pathless Path, Vol 2


Talks on the Sutras of Lieh Tzu

In these talks on Lieh Tzu, Osho calls Tao "the pathless path"
because, he says, it has a different quality, the quality of freedom,
anarchy and chaos. "Anything that is an imposition, a discipline, an
order imposed externally only serves to distract the seeker from his
path. As well as commenting on stories attributed to Lieh Tzu,
Osho answers questions about marriage, intimacy, the possibility
of Tantra merging with Tao; whether a master can save a disciple,
spontaneity, the difference between being special and being
unique, and about doing your own thing.

 Perfect Master

Osho comments on Sufi anecdotes and responds to questions from


seekers. But how to recognize "the perfect master"? Osho suggests that
rather than being concerned about who the "perfect master" is, become
the perfect disciple and the right master will appear. And how to
become the perfect disciple? The answer to this and a diverse range of
topics from prayer and past lives to anxiety and what is meant by a
mystical experience is peppered within the text of these unforgettable
talks.

"Here in these pages is a record of that unique meeting: a meeting of


ancient stories of the Sufi mystics with a modern master bound by no
school or tradition, but bursting with the freshness of his own
awakened being." Frankfurt Book Fair Catalog

 The Perfect Way

A beautiful introduction and personal invitation to meditation and Osho's


unique vision of this dimension of life for the contemporary seeker. In his
inimitably poetic style, Osho invites the reader to wake up from the spiritual
sleep in which most of humanity is immersed.
These talks from his first meditation camp in the hills of Rajasthan and
another camp in Ajol, Gujarat, India, contain the eternal basics of meditation.
They cover guided meditation techniques suitable for those new to meditation,
and the seasoned seeker, as well as responses to questions. A beautiful
introduction to Osho's work and vision.

 Philosophia Ultima
Discourses on the Mandukya Upanishad

These discourses contain what Osho describes as the most significant


statements ever made, and which point to the whole secret of the mystic
approach towards life. And the sutra that begins this series of discourses,
he says, contains the very essence of the entire Upanishadic vision—that
the universe is an indivisible totality, an organic whole. Osho illuminates
these ancient texts with such clarity that their significance seems
stunningly obvious. A wealth of jokes and amusing anecdotes are
magically interwoven through his commentaries.

"A religion needn't be a grim affair, how people punish themselves,


religious people, all that kind of flagellation they go in for. It needn't be
negative: don't do this, don't do that. It can be a positive religion. It can be
a liberated one. Reading Osho the most important thing I discovered is
that it liberates you from what you have been brought up on, all the wrong
notions of religion because the basic is really not to hurt people and
thereafter the rest is marginal. And even more than that, that it can be a
religion of joy. People can enjoy being religious, being good and getting
on with their fellow men." Khushwant Singh, Novelist,
historian and journalist

 Philosophia Perennis Vol 1


Talks on the Golden Verses of Pythagoras

Osho declares that if the Greek mathematician and mystic


Pythagoras had been listened to and understood, humanity's history
would have been totally different. Pythagoras is a man close to
Osho's heart, with his understanding that materialism and
spiritualism -- East and West, body and soul --exist together, are
not opposing forces but complementary facets of a harmony. In
this series of talks Osho discusses the verses of Pythagoras and
responds to seekers' questions.

 Philosophia Perennis Vol 2


Talks on the Golden Verses of Pythagoras

Osho explains in this volume that Pythagoras who he describes as


"a seeker of truth par excellence," lived in Alexandria and was
initiated into the mystery schools of Egypt in his search. He then
traveled to India, Tibet and China—then the whole-known world—
in his search until he became self-realized. He found a perennial
philosophy but was persecuted by society, attempts made on his
life, and he was unable to work out his system in detail.
The fragments that were left after his death were collected and
written up by a disciple in The Golden Verses of Pythagoras. Osho
expounds on the idea of the East and West as representative of the
brain's two hemispheres; on fanaticism, beliefs, friendship, and on
the two Pythagorean laws—of necessity and power. His
enthusiasm and love for Pythagoras are evident in these talks on
his verses.

 The People Of The Path

Jokes...paradox...parables...wisdom....absurdity...all to shake the reader


out of his intellect and into the innocence of the mystic. Osho distills
the essence of Sufism for the contemporary man, not to inform the
reader about the state of mysticism but to create the situation in which
we discover the mystic within ourselves.

"Remarkable discourses...wise and clear...an excellent,


recommendable book." Book Review, De Kaarsvlam

 The People Of The Path Vol 2

Osho takes a dozen or so beautiful Sufi anecdotes and uses them as


tools to chip away at the obsolete and blind belief systems in which
modern man is ensnared.

"Remarkable discourses...wise and clear...an excellent,


recommendable book." Book Review, De Kaarsvlam

 Priests and Politicians: The Mafia Of The soul

"You have to be aware who the real criminals are in this world. That's
why I speak against the priests and religions, because I don't want any
single loophole for you. You have to be aware who the criminals are.
The problem is that those criminals are thought to be great leaders,
sages, saints, mahatmas, and they are respected tremendously around
the world, so you will never think that they can be criminals. So I have
to insist continuously, every day.
For example, it is easier to understand that perhaps politicians are the
causes of many problems: wars, murders, massacres, burning people.
It is even more difficult when it comes to religious leaders, because
nobody has raised his hand against them. They have remained
respectable for centuries, and as time goes on their respectability goes
on growing. The most difficult job for me is to make you aware that
these people -- knowingly or unknowingly, that does not matter -- have
created this world."

 The Psychology Of The Esoteric


Osho begins from where Western psychology leaves off. Through this
stunning series of discourses he takes the reader beyond Freud and
Jung, beyond the Human Potential Movement, to the psychology of
enlightenment, of buddhahood. In these talks Osho reveals his vision
of a New Man a man who embraces all aspects of his being and the
creation of a climate in which that new man can realize his ultimate
potential. Osho covers a multitude of subjects in response to questions
from seekers: the nature of meditation; sex, love and prayer as the
three essential steps to the divine; destiny; why Western youth is
attracted to Eastern religion and philosophy; the significance of
kundalini yoga; dream psychology and the seven energy bodies.

R
 The Razor’s Edge

This book tells a true story. A story of great love and immense trust
between disciples and their master as they move together along a
golden path which is both dangerous and ecstatic. This path is the
razor's edge.

"Osho's position as an important mystic and philosopher is supported


by an international following and a host of publications. His work is
that of all great religious leaders, bringing God to man.... His lively
appeal is jokes, limericks, verse and tales, combined with traditional
religious themes." Library Journal, USA.

 The Rebel

A handbook for the man of the future, The Rebel is a comprehensive


guide to Osho as a planetary visionary. In his responses to seekers'
questions he dissects virtually every institution and traditional belief of
society, and proposes a truly radical approach to overthrowing the past
in order to make way for the future. A fiery exploration of the essential
characteristics found in the authentic seeker—the rebel.

"Osho is a thoroughly modern man as much at home with Marx and


Engels and humanistic psychology as with the mystical traditions of
the East. Indeed, he uses Marx and Maslov, Plato and Heidegger,
Freud and Beckett and Lenny Bruce, Playboy jokes as well as Zen and
Sufi teaching stories, to make telling critiques of political and
religious, psychological and sexual orthodoxies." Washington Post.
USA (James Gordon).

 Rebellion, Revolution, Religiousness

Osho taught that all the established religions of the past are spiritually
bankrupt, and urged each individual to theologically decondition
themselves as a prelude to true enlightenment. "I don't preach
revolution. I am utterly against revolution. My word for the future, and
for those who are intelligent enough in the present, is "rebellion".
Rebellion is individual action; it has nothing to do with the crowd. It is
spiritual metamorphosis."

The book begins, "Having sown the seed, I leave. You see to it that the
seed does not remain only a seed...." Osho

 The Rebellious Spirit

Central to Osho's vision of the new man is what he calls "the rebellious
spirit." These discourses offer a glimpse into what he means by this
way of life, and how he is working with his disciples to bring it about.
This book is the very expression of the rebellious spirit vibrant, urgent
and courageous.

"His incredible taped discourse lectures and books have inspired me


(and millions of others) on the path of self-evolution... He is like a
great bell tolling, Awaken, Awaken, Awaken!" James Coburn, actor

 Returning To The Source

Zen is an experience, not a dogma, and an experience which


transcends the confines of the rational mind, moving into the super-
rational arena of our consciousness. Through words, Osho creates a
sense of existential silence from which all words manifest. At the same
time, he shines the light of understanding on many inner barriers to
growth and self-realization.

"Without question the most inspired, the most literate and the most
profoundly informed speaker I have ever heard anywhere. Everything
he says in his philosophy of life has the unmistakable ring of truth: a
new experience."

 The Revolution
"Up to man there has been evolution," Osho says. "From fish to man
there has been evolution. But from man to a Buddha, from man to a
Christ, from man to a Kabir, it is not evolution, it is revolution—the
revolution I call it, the only revolution." Osho rekindles these ten fiery
songs of Kabir, verses which shocked 15th-century seekers. In Osho's
hands, Kabir's vision is equally if not more mind-shattering.

 Rinzai: Master Of The Irrational

Rinzai, who brought Zen from China to Japan, is truly a master of the
irrational, a Zen master who sticks his tongue out at one disciple and
who created the shout as a device to shock the mind. Osho continually
reminds us that it is only a question of time, that everyone is going to
become a buddha. He encourages the reader not to believe, but to
experience, to have the trust that "if so many people can become
enlightened, there is no reason why I cannot." In this small volume he
also comments on the timeless paintings in words of the famous haiku
writer, Ikkyu. A gem for everyone from the curious to the seasoned
seeker..

S
 Sat Chit Anand

This mantra is the expression of the ultimate for mystics like Buddha,
Socrates and Lao Tzu, for those who are contemplative rather than
poetic by nature. Explaining that meditation is the master key, Osho
emphasizes the treasures of the inner world, and the urgent need for
the quantum leap from mind to being.

"The teachings of Osho, in fact, encompass many religions, but he is


not defined by any of them. He is an illuminating speaker on Zen,
Taoism, Tibetan Buddhism, Christianity and ancient Greek
philosophy...and also a prolific author."

 Satyam Shivam Sundaram

A must for those new to meditation and to Osho's vision, this series of
discourses addresses a variety of subjects, in response to questions
such as: Why is it so difficult to be in a state of let-go? Are men
responsible for women feeling fed up? How can I love better? What is
it to give and what is it to receive? Why do enlightened masters
criticize each other? Are there real differences in races? Why am I
scared to accept myself as I am? And many more.

"He had provided us a rare insight into our lives and times. He has
ridiculed us, pushed us...hurt us, and thereby, made richer human
beings out of us. He made us think for ourselves; forced us to reject
him, and by that act of rejection, brought us closer to him —and in a
strange kind of way, closer to ourselves."

 The Search

The ten paintings that tell the famous Zen story of a farmer in search
of his lost bull provide an allegorical expression of the search for
enlightenment. Originally Taoist, The Ten Bulls were repainted by the
12th-century Chinese Zen master, Kakuan, and first appeared in the
West in American author, Paul Reps' book, Zen Flesh, Zen Bones.
These discourses are Osho's commentaries on the paintings, and on the
poetry and prose which accompany them in Paul Reps' book. In
answering the question, "Why am I here?" Osho dismantles not only
this but probably every "why" the mind can contrive. There is a
beautiful talk about the relation between discipline and awareness;
another about Tantra and Yoga, the path of love and the path of
meditation and where they meet.

"You'll learn more about yourself reading one chapter of "The Search"
than you will reading a dozen ordinary books on Zen."

 The Secret

Osho uses a delightful selection of Sufi tales to impart the essence of


the path of love. And "the secret"? The goal itself is the source, the
seeker is the sought.

 Seeds Of Wisdom

A collection of 120 letters written by Osho to a beloved disciple, Ma


Anandmayee. In a meditation camp in Mt. Abu, Rajasthan, India, Osho
announced that she had been his mother in a previous incarnation. The
selections in this book are actually more like small stories and parables
than letters. Using incidents in his daily life as a starting point, or
recalling ancient teaching stories, Osho reflects on the nature of truth
and the spiritual search, while at the same time giving the reader an
intimate glimpse into his own life and search.

The book begins, "Having sown the seed, I leave. You see to it that the
seed does not remain only a seed...."
 Sermons In Stones

Osho explores the theme of the individual's responsibility in creating


the world we live in during these discourses given in Bombay just
before his return to Poona. Also included is his point-by-point critique
of the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights and his own
formulation of human rights for a new humanity.

What Osho has to say about the rights of man is "must" reading for
anyone sincerely interested in human welfare and progress because he
debunks the conventional wisdom. Anyone who reads this book will
understand why so many governments have refused to grant him
permission to live within their borders. What he says are the truths that
politicians cannot have people hear. If Osho were heard, national
boundaries would dissolve, and power would leave the hands of elites
and politicians. Celebration of life, love and laughter would become
the dominant mode of life on earth."

 Shree Rajneesh: A Man Of Many Climates, Seasons and


Rainbows, Through The Eye Of A Camera

Open this book and enter a world of color portraits of the enlightened master
Osho. This beautifully designed book in a special large format boasts a
selected collection of 64 color photographs of Osho which have an emphasis
on unusual light effects.
The only text is the introduction by Italian photographer, Emilio Constantino,
who includes the comment: "Looking into Osho's eyes I saw an emptiness that
nearly swallowed me...as if he would disappear from in front of the lens. His
body was there, as if held with difficulty by the force of gravity, but he wasn't
there. The disappearance of the ego, which he calls the root of enlightenment,
was present to my photographic eye as an incredible contemporaneity of
presence/absence."

 Socrates Poisoned Again After 25 Centuries

As the bishop of Crete's Greek Orthodox Church urges the local citizenry to
forcibly drive him out of the villa where he is staying, Osho revives the spirit
of Zorba in a series of lively talks to his disciples and to visiting journalists.
Eventually Osho, like Socrates, was accused of "corrupting the youth"—and
his heavy-handed deportation is documented in an eight-page color section at
the end of this volume. But in the meantime the "corruption" had been
recorded in print. A banquet of timely topics, from politics and religion to
teenagers and sex, it sparkles like the Mediterranean setting in which it
happened.
 The Secret Of Secrets

Talks on the Secret of the Golden Flower

In these unique discourses Osho unravels the many technical terms used by
Lao Tzu's predecessor, the Chinese mystic Lu Tsu and explains his meditation
techniques. He outlines the qualities of animus and anima—our male and
female energies—as delineated by Lu Tsu, and explains the importance of
their relationship inside each individual.
Throughout these discourses there is a sense of urgency, the urgency of a
scientist who sees the technology available but not being implemented. For
Osho religion is not speculative but essentially experiential, an experiment as
scientific as the outer, objective science.

 The Secret Of Secrtes Vol 2


Talks on the Secret of the Golden Flower

Osho transforms the texts of Lu Tsu into readily accessible wisdom


of lasting appeal. In alternate discourses he talks on a vast range of
subjects—love as therapy and prayer as the highest form of love;
love and death; his seemingly inconsistent statements; what India
means to him; trying to escape aloneness; why revolutions fail;
sex, fear of the unexpected and the difference between the
intelligence of the mind and that of the heart.

"To read Osho is a unique experience for me. He is a poet-


philosopher of the highest degree, with the directness and
poetic power of Nietzsche."

 A Sudden Clash Of Thunder

Osho says that laughter is "the very essence of Zen." And though
the theme of this series is meditation—watching, remaining alert and
aware—as the only way to truth, Osho encourages us to, "be happy
and meditation will follow." There is a wonderful chapter on laughter,
Hotei the Laughing Buddha and enlightenment: "This is the whole
effort of all the masters: to create a sudden clash of thunder so those
who are fast asleep can be awakened."

"Osho could keep his audience in thrall, knitting prescient anecdotes


culled from various sources."

 The Sun Rises In the Evening


Commentaries on the Shodoka, The Song of Enlightenment, of Yoka Daishi
These commentaries on sutras, alternating with answers to seekers'
questions, are richly laced with stories and anecdotes about
Krishnamurti, Plato, Socrates, Hubert Benoit, Raman Maharshi,
Jean-Paul Sartre, Camus, Tolstoy, Nietzsche, Eckhart and
Gurdjieff... East and West merge into one quest as Osho urges us to
realize our buddha-consciousness, our enlightenment—that which
we always have been.

"You'll learn more about yourself reading one chapter of The


Search than you will reading a dozen ordinary books on Zen."

 The Supreme Doctrine


Discourses on the Kenopanishad

To his first Western disciples Osho speaks on the ancient Indian


Vedic scriptures. He answers seekers' questions related to using the
intellect, transcending the duality of sex, the role of the master on
the disciple's spiritual journey, the contribution and limitations of
psychoanalysis, the significance of chaotic meditations for the
modern man, and much more.

Osho says of this book, "I have chosen to talk about the
Upanishads because to me they represent one of the purest
expressions of the ultimate that is possible, if it is possible at all."

The Supreme Doctrine deals in depth with many aspects of


meditation, the fundamentals of how to move intensely and totally
into this experience spoken of by the rishis in the Ken Upanishad .
Osho's insights are incisive, his freshness and dynamism are
captured in these talks.

He explains the process of meditation: "Meditation is first of all an


effort to make you independent; and second, to change your type
and quality of consciousness. With a new quality of consciousness
old problems cannot exist: they simply disappear."

 The Sword and The Lotus


Talks in the Himalayas

This volume captures the fast pace of Osho's six-week stay in


Nepal, the birthplace of Buddha. He answers questions from his
sannyasins in his hotel suite in the mornings and every evening
from press in the hotel conference room:
What is your message to the modern Nepalese Buddhists? What is
your message for the Pope who is in India now? What do you think
about the New Age movement? You teach us to be thankful to
existence, but how can I be thankful to those who speak against
you and try to destroy your work? With no white lies, no beating
around the bush, no platitudes and no mincing of words, Osho's
truth cuts clean with the skill of a master swordsman and the
compassion symbolized in the lotus.

"With Osho, words flow endlessly. Provocatively. Challengingly.


In a hundred years more copies of Osho's works will have been
printed than the Bible itself, till now the outstanding best-seller."

T
 Take It Easy Vol 1

Of the verses of the fourteenth Zen master, Ikkyu, Osho says that the
point is not that they are great poetry but a device to stir the heart, to
touch the being, because Ikkyu is a mystic. A strange fellow indeed,
one hot day Ikkyu took a wooden Buddha from the temple and tied
him to a pole saying, "Now you too cool yourself." And another day he
burned a Buddha to keep himself warm in the night saying, "Look at
me—the buddha inside is shivering."

In these discourses Osho covers a vast arena from the state of no-mind
before birth, to man's obsession with greed; from the difference
between mind and consciousness, to the ultimate failure of love-
affairs; from "scientific mysticism," to the psychology of politicians
and the importance of dreams.

 Take It Easy Vol 2

Of the verses of the fourteenth Zen master, Ikkyu, Osho says that the
point is not that they are great poetry but a device to stir the heart, to
touch the being, because Ikkyu is a mystic. A strange fellow indeed,
one hot day Ikkyu took a wooden Buddha from the temple and tied
him to a pole saying, "Now you too cool yourself." And another day he
burned a Buddha to keep himself warm in the night saying, "Look at
me—the buddha inside is shivering."
Through his commentaries on Zen master Ikkyu's verses, Osho
shatters many of the cherished beliefs of man, and the meditator too.
Togetherness, aloneness, the illusoriness of love and of meditation; the
difficulty of understanding the simple; the difference between
information and experience... There is something here for every
intelligent reader!

 The Tantra Experience


Talks on the Royal Song of Saraha, the Founder of Tantra

An absorbing book about the relationship between Saraha, an


affluent young Brahmin, and a lower-cast arrowsmith woman-he as
disciple and she as his Tantric master. In Osho's understanding
Tantra is one of the greatest of man's visions, a religion which
respects rather than destroys individuality. Alternately speaking on
the sutras of Saraha and answering seekers' questions, Osho speaks
of Saraha as "one of my most-loved persons; it is my old love-
affair.
You may not have even heard the name of Saraha, but Saraha is
one of the great benefactors of humanity. If I were to count on my
fingers ten benefactors of humanity, Saraha would be one of those
ten. If I were to count five, then too I would not be able to drop
Saraha."

"With Osho as a guide Tantra can give you a new perspective, a


new way of looking at yourself and at life, a new way of living in
harmony with existence...for Tantra is not an intellectual proposal,
it is pure experience."

 Tantric Transformation
Talks on the Royal Song of Saraha, the Founder of Tantra

In this second volume of discourses on Saraha's Royal Song, given


by a contemporary Tantric master, Osho, we are given a detailed
map of Tantra: inner man, inner woman; the meeting of man and
woman; the transformation of energy through sex and other
techniques. Osho says, "Tantra is freedom: freedom from all mind-
constructs, from all mind games; freedom from all structures,
freedom from the other. Tantra is space to be. Tantra is liberation."

Tantric transformation is a very alive, concrete book for


exploration of our own energy, of our own inner space.

"You don't just read Osho, you undefine yourself."

 Tantra, Spirituality and Sex


Excerpts from Vigyan Bhairav Tantra

The message of Tantra endorses Osho's understanding-that only


through total acceptance of ourselves can we grow. In this slim
volume, Osho talks on Tantra and Yoga, meditation techniques, let-
go and surrender, and tantric love and spirituality in sex.

"Osho is a living master who has died. His words stand head-over-
heels, and if he can't reach right through you to the divine void,
well...tough luck. Osho is definitely alive in a fast breathing,
shaking sort of vividness."

 Tantra: The Supreme Understanding


Discourses on the Tantric way of Tilopa's song of Mahamudra

Nothing much is known about the Indian master Tilopa, yet his
mystical insight into Tantra in the form of a song passed on to his
disciple Naropa, has lived on through the ages. In this series of
discourses Osho speaks on Tilopa's verses, which contain many
significant meditation techniques suitable for the modern-day
seeker:

"Mahamudra...is a total orgasm with the whole, with the universe.


It is a melting into the source of being.... This is a song of
Mahamudra. And who will sing it? Tilopa is no more. The
orgasmic feeling itself is vibrating and singing.... I am also here to
sing a song, but it can be given to you only when you are ready."

 Tantric Transformation, Hardback

by a contemporary Tantric master, Osho, we are given a detailed
map of Tantra: inner man, inner woman; the meeting of man and
woman; the transformation of energy through sex and other

Tantric transformation is a very alive, concrete book for

 Tao: The Golden Gate Vol 1

Osho refers to these ancient discourses as the most profound


insights into nature—not tenets of a doctrine or philosophical
treatises but existential insights. Of their originator, the famous
6th-century scholar Ko Hsuan, nothing is known except that he is
an enlightened master of the caliber of Lao Tzu.
Osho explains why Tao is called "the golden gate"—it is to
indicate that God is not a person but an entrance, an opening that
happens internally when the seeker is ready.
Osho also answers questions related to discipline versus
repression, fidelity in marriage, happiness and marriage, death, the
pain of growth, creativity and religion and, amongst others, why
God created Indians!

 Tao: The Pathless Path Vol 1


Talks on the Sutras of Lieh Tzu

Osho talks about stories based on The Book of Lieh Tzu attributed
to a 5th-century Chinese mystic. It is not known if Lieh Tzu ever
existed, or if the parables attributed to him were written by one
person or many. More significant than their origin are the parables
themselves, and the way in which Osho takes them and opens the
door to the mysteries they contain.
In the course of his commentary and his answers to questions,
Osho speaks of Beckett and Buddha, Gurdjieff and Hitler, Einstein
and Confucius. He also talks about psychotherapy and Taoism,
Taoism and escapism, esoterica and humor; jealousy,
possessiveness, the nature of senility, and falling asleep during his
talks.

 Tao: The Three Treasures Vol 1


Talks on Fragments from Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu
Osho recounts how Lao Tzu, at the age of 90, was leaving for the
Himalayas to spend his final days. Until this time he had never written
about his insights. But at the border a guard, who was also his disciple,
imprisoned the mystic and refused to release him until he wrote down
something of what he had come to know. That is how this unique text, the
Tao Te Ching, was born. Osho comments on Lao Tzu's words, and also
answers questions including how to prevent his vision degenerating into
an institution, the I Ching, growth and spirituality in the context of Tao,
sudden and gradual enlightenment, and much more.

"Lao Tzu moved into life, watched silently, observed and saw
many things -- many things --
but the base of them all is that everything is moving to its
opposite." Osho

 Tao: The Three Treasures Vol 2

Osho recounts how Lao Tzu, at the age of 90, was leaving for the
Himalayas to spend his final days. Until this time he had never written about
his insights. But at the border a guard, who was also his disciple, imprisoned
the mystic and refused to release him until he wrote down something of what

born. Osho comments on Lao Tzu's words, and also answers questions
including how to prevent his vision degenerating into an institution, the I
Ching, growth and spirituality in the context of Tao, sudden and gradual
enlightenment, and much more.

"Lao Tzu moved into life, watched silently, observed and saw many
things -- many things --
but the base of them all is that everything is moving to its opposite."
Osho

 Tao: The Three Treasures Vol 3


Talks on Fragments from Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu

"Lao Tzu moved into life, watched silently, observed and saw
many things—many things—but the base of them all is that
everything is moving to its opposite." Osho
Osho's commentary on the timeless verses of Lao Tzu is set in
poetic format, as are his responses to questions from disciples and
other seekers. Questions include: Isn't the search for enlightenment
selfish? How much patience is needed? Is there really nothing we
can do? Do all beings eventually find their way to enlightenment?
What is the difference between innocence and ignorance? And
many more.

 Tao: The Three Treasures Vol 4


Talks on Fragments from Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu

"Lao Tzu moved into life, watched silently, observed and saw
many things -- many things -- but the base of them all is that
everything is moving to its opposite." Osho

Lao Tzu speaks of his "three treasures": Love; Never too much;
Never be the first in the world. Osho uses this exquisite text to
deliver some of his most potent words on love -- not as an emotion
but as the subtlest form of energy, the substratum of all energy and
the essence of life itself. He also speaks on love in relation to sex,
fear, the family, science, art and prayer; the mind as a bio-
computer; the difficulty of comprehending the simple; ambition
and identification with the body. A treasure trove of Osho's
wisdom.

 That Art Thou

Discourses on the Sarvasar Upanishad, the Kaivalya Upanishad and


the Adhyatma Upanishad during the first meditation camps in which
Osho spoke English. Each of these 51 short chapters covers a different
theme, based on the sutra being discussed, and translates this ancient
wisdom into the language of today. Osho's talks around these
Upanishads are a blueprint for anyone interested in meditation. The
book includes photographs, never released before, of Osho and the
meditation camps, and the complete text of his instructions as he leads
Dynamic Meditation, one of the most important techniques he created
for the seeker today.

"Instead of merely theorizing about spiritual experience, he teaches us


how to live it in our daily lives." Osho

 Theologica Mystica
Discourses on the Treatise of St. Dionysius

Osho says of these letters by Dionysius, first bishop of Athens, to


his disciple Timothy: "His whole book is written with a disguise,
as if it is a treatise on theology; mysticism is just somewhere by
the side, secondary, not primary. Hence the name Theologica
Mystica—as if mysticism is only a consequence of getting deep
into the world of theology. Just the reverse is the case."

 The Search
Talks on the Ten Bulls of Zen

The ten paintings that tell the famous Zen story of a farmer in
search of his lost bull provide an allegorical expression of the
search for enlightenment. Originally Taoist, The Ten Bulls were
repainted by the 12th-century Chinese Zen master, Kakuan, and
first appeared in the West in American author, Paul Reps' book,
Zen Flesh, Zen Bones. These discourses are Osho's commentaries
on the paintings, and on the poetry and prose which accompany
them in Paul Reps' book. In answering the question, "Why am I
here?" Osho dismantles not only this but probably every "why" the
mind can contrive. There is a beautiful talk about the relation
between discipline and awareness; another about Tantra and Yoga,
the path of love and the path of meditation and where they meet.

 The Sword and The Lotus


Talks in the Himalayas

This volume captures the fast pace of Osho's six-week stay in


Nepal, the birthplace of Buddha. He answers questions from his
sannyasins in his hotel suite in the mornings and every evening
from press in the hotel conference room:
What is your message to the modern Nepalese Buddhists? What is
your message for the Pope who is in India now? What do you think
about the New Age movement? You teach us to be thankful to
existence, but how can I be thankful to those who speak against
you and try to destroy your work? With no white lies, no beating
around the bush, no platitudes and no mincing of words, Osho's
truth cuts clean with the skill of a master swordsman and the
compassion symbolized in the lotus.

 Tao: The Pathless Path Vol 2


Talks on the Sutras of Lieh Tzu
In these talks on Lieh Tzu, Osho calls Tao "the pathless path"
because, he says, it has a different quality, the quality of freedom,
anarchy and chaos. "Anything that is an imposition, a discipline, an
order imposed externally only serves to distract the seeker from his
path. As well as commenting on stories attributed to Lieh Tzu,
Osho answers questions about marriage, intimacy, the possibility
of Tantra merging with Tao; whether a master can save a disciple,
spontaneity, the difference between being special and being
unique, and about doing your own thing.

 This, This A Thousand Times This: The Very Essence of


Zen

Through his commentaries on anecdotes about Zen masters Osho


reiterates that Zen is not for the mass-mind but only for the individual
who is unconcerned with the dictates of the status quo. Further, Zen is
for those intelligent enough to understand the limitations of the
intellect and ready to recognize the significance of intuition in the
world of mysticism. Throughout, Osho keeps bringing the reader back
to the moment, to this, as the only reality.

 This Very Body The Buddha


Discourses on Hakuin's Song of Meditation

Of these verses that comprise the song of the 17th-century mystic,


Hakuin, Osho comments, "It is a very small song, but a great gift.
This is a song of meditation. If meditation is without a song, it is
dull and dead. You will find this song and its meaning only when
you are singing and dancing, when the music of life has overtaken
you."

 The Trnasmission Of The Lamp

In this third book which covers much of the esoteric side of the
spiritual search, Osho responds to questions from the small group of
sannyasins with him on tour. He explains "witnessing" or "watching"
as a 24-hour technique that can be done anytime, anywhere; and talks
on astral projection, past lives, and the origins of depression.

 Turning In

In these eight talks, each of which is based on the sayings of a different


enlightened Zen master, Osho gives detailed explanations of the Zen
method of meditation, "turning in." He outlines the development of
man's mind, and emphasizes that meditation is essential not only for
the growth of the individual, but ultimately for the survival of the
planet.

 The True Sage

Ten discourses on Hasidism, in which Osho responds to a story from


The Tales of Hasidism by Matin Buber, and to questions submitted by
disciples and seekers. This book is a mixture of light-hearted stories
and the penetrating understanding of a true sage. Like the Hassids,
Osho's own emphasis is on playfulness and celebration:
"Judaism has produced one of the most essential lines of mystics, the
Hassids... It is one of the most beautiful ways to find oneself and to
find the reality of existence."

U
 The Ultimate Alchemy, Vol 2
Discourses on the Atma Pooja Upanishad

Contained in this volume are many alchemical secrets—secrets of


"the ultimate alchemy," the alchemy of purifying man's gross
nature into the pure gold of cosmic consciousness. Many
meditation techniques are shown along the way, many efforts to
make us aware of our unconscious condition, the source of all our
dis-ease.

 Unio Mystica, Vol 1

Osho says that if he were to select only two books from the whole
world, The Hadiqa: The Walled Garden of Truth, on the 12th-century
Persian Hakim Sanai, would be one of them. Hadiqa is the essence of
the path of love. Hakim Sanai was the prime minister of a powerful
king who dropped everything to walk the path of love. And in Osho's
understanding, Hakim Sanai catches the very soul of Sufism. This
volume features ten discourses in which Osho speaks on these
exquisite verses. In alternate discourses Osho answers questions from
seekers including: Why is it so difficult to be silent? How is one to
know if sannyas is good? Why do we need a master? How to move
from sexuality to love? What is creativity?
 Unio Mystica, Vol 2\

In his commentary on Hakim Sanai's verses, Osho invites the reader to


participate in an experience that could be life transforming. He
alternates discourses on these verses with his responses to questions
from disciples and other seekers about asceticism, love, intelligence,
aloneness and living in a community, and the theory of relativity.

V
 Vedanta Seven Steps To Samadhi
Discourses on the Akshya Upanishad, Only Available on Audio

These seven steps to enlightenment are keys of wisdom, step-by-


step instructions handed down from the unnamed ancient seers. In
this series of nine discourses Osho discusses these timeless sutras
from the Akshya Upanishad, transforming their archaic language
into the language and context of the 20th-century seeker.

 Vigyan Bhairav Tantra

This superlative two-volume edition contains the entire series of


discourses originally published as The Book of the Secrets. In these
talks, Osho breathes new life into the 112 meditation techniques given
by the Indian mystic, Shiva, the originator of Tantra.
The books come with a set of 112 exquisite cards which are full-color
prints of original artwork inspired by Shiva's techniques. Each of the
cards represents one of the meditations and references the pages in the
books where Osho discusses that particular technique.
The cards allow you to playfully and intuitively choose the meditation
that is most appropriate to experiment with. Techniques include:
watching the gap between two breaths; watching one's moods; being
aware of oneself as the one who senses; focusing attention on the third
eye; making love without a partner. Meditation techniques for every
possible facet of everyone's day-to-day life and an invaluable
companion for every sincere meditator.

W
 Walking In Zen, Sitting In Zen

In an especially lighthearted series of discourses Osho talks on the rare


Zen master, Yoko, and explains why meditation is not just a daily
discipline but a lifetime love-affair. He also answers questions from
seekers on chaos, sex and spiritual awakening.

 Walk Without Feet, Fly Without Wings And Think


Without Mind

In this powerful meeting between Osho, his disciples and other


seekers, Osho speaks on parents and children, trust and surrender, love
and jealousy, sex and pornography; play and creativity, desirelessness,
enlightenment and belief in God.

 Was Bhagwan Rajneesh Poisoned By Reagan’s America

The real facts surrounding the arrest and incarceration of Osho. The
evidence documented proves the extraordinary conspiracy by the US
government to silence this man forever.

 What Is Meditation?

A beautiful gift book that answers all those ordinary questions we want
answered. The Chapter titles give an exact feel of this uniquely
valuable book. The Element Edition of this book is available from
your local bookstore

 What Is Meditation? (St. Martins)

A compilation of no-mind provoking, sometimes startling answers to a


question that too few people bother to ask. Meditation is fun, says
Osho -- and a science, a celebration, a cleansing, and much more.

 When The Shoe Fits

When the shoe fits the foot is forgotten!

Osho is unique amongst commentators in that he does not offer yet another
intellectual treatise on principles, but rather relates the situation as it was a
few thousand years ago to our situation here and now. His great affinity with
Chuang Tzu is obvious as he talks on Zen as a religious system only in so far
as it is a practical means by which we may understand the conditionings of the
mind, and in so doing, transcend. And then the shoe will always fit!
"Chuang Tzu is very rare--a unique mystic in the whole history of
man. His uniqueness is that he talks in absurdities. All his poems and
stories are just absurd. And his reason for choosing absurdity as his
expression is very significant: the mind has to be silenced. With
anything rational, it cannot stop; it goes on and on. Anything logical,
and the mind finds nourishment through it. It is only the absurd that
suddenly shocks the mind--it is beyond mind's grasp. His stories, his
poems and his other statements are so absurd that either people simply
left him, thinking that he was mad... Those who were courageous
enough to remain with him found that no other meditation was needed.
Just listening to his absurd statements, the mind stops functioning. And
that is the meaning of meditation. Meditation is not of the mind."
Osho

 The White LOtus


Talks on Fragmentary Notes of Bodhidharma's Disciples

Bodhidharma, a disciple of Buddha, was the first patriarch of Zen.


The notes collected by his disciples from Bodhidharma's
discourses, contain the essential core of Buddha's message.
Buddha and Bodhidharma are vastly different in their expression
of truth. Osho sees Buddha as the silence of a breeze,
Bodhidharma he likens to a storm.
This discourse series alternates the eminently readable
interchanges between Bodhidharma and his disciples, and Osho's
response to questions from his own disciples and other seekers. In
the words of one journalist: "Just by reading these discourses there
is a risk you may be pulverized by their inspiration."

 The Wild Geese and The Water

Osho describes the pillars of his vision of sannyas, disciplehood: life-


affirmation, meditation, love and "the fourth," that which cannot be
expressed through words. In his characteristically up-front way, he
slots so-called saints into three special categories -- Idiots, Average
IQs, and Intellectuals.
In addition, he allocates places to such well-known personages as
Satya Sai Baba, Mother Teresa, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and
Krishnamurti, and also speaks on Kahlil Gibran, Gurdjieff, Lama
Trungpa and the Antichrist.

 The Wisdom Of The Sands, Vol 1

Osho indicates the significance of this series of discourses on Sufism


by saying that it has no explanation for existence, rather, it is a way
into the mysteries of existence. Hence, the stories that he comments on
in this volume do not carry a philosophical message, but are a gesture
towards a world beyond philosophy.

 The Wisdom Of The Sands, Vol 2

Osho describes one of the stories within this collection of his


commentaries on Sufi stories as belonging to the "very foundation of
religious consciousness." Deceptively simple, these tales have a
deeper, underlying significance, as Osho makes manifest. They are not
for those who want entertainment, but for those who seek illumination.

 Words From A Man Of No Words

A collection of crystallized moments from the first days of Osho's talks


delivered in America. It is a journey through words to the wordless,
designed to be savored drop by drop. This elegant, pocket-size volume
is one to be picked up again and again for another taste -- a truly
beautiful gift.

 The World Of Zen Five Volume Set

Live Zen

Osho speaks on incidences in the work and play between an


assortment of Zen masters and their disciples. Each discourse
culminates in a specially designated joke-telling time. This series also
sees the introduction of the powerful new No-mind Meditation
conducted by Osho.

This. This. A Thousand Times This - The Very Essence of Zen

Through his commentaries on anecdotes about Zen masters Osho


reiterates that Zen is not for the mass-mind but only for the individual
who is unconcerned with the dictates of the status quo. Further, Zen is
for those intelligent enough to understand the limitations of the
intellect and ready to recognize the significance of intuition in the
world of mysticism. Throughout, Osho keeps bringing the reader back
to the moment, to this, as the only reality.

Zen: The Diamond Thunderbolt

The "diamond thunderbolt" is that experience in which it is as if one is


shocked out of one's spiritual sleep and catapulted into the mystery of
existence. Through anecdotes and joke-telling, Osho creates a milieu
in which that can happen.

Zen: The Quantum Leap From Mind to No-Mind

The quantum leap, according to Osho, is from mind to no-mind from


ego-mind to inner consciousness. It is all that is needed for self-
transformation and it can happen instantaneously. Osho speaking on
Zen is a must for anyone who senses "there must be more to life than
this." There is and Osho infuses it into our reality right here, in this
small but potent book.

Zen: The Solitary Bird, Cuckoo of the Forest

In this series Osho takes us deeply into the mysteries of the inner
world. He explains that the existence of the mind is peripheral and can
only exist on the circumference of our consciousness. It is a fine
instrument for outside inquiry, but inhibits the internal search. In those
moments when we enter our being, it disappears. This is meditation.

Y
 Yahoo! The Mystic Rose

At his iconoclastic best and in the presence of journalists from the German
magazine, Bunte, Osho overturns the apple-cart of decorum, making fun of the
Nazi regime and recounting some of his most outrageous jokes. Osho also
creates one of his most powerful meditations, the Mystic Rose Meditation.
This question-and-answer series is an existential illustration of a
contemporary Zen master at work. An additional section of inspiring
photographs and touchingly intimate interviews make this lovingly designed
book quite simply irresistible.

"This is absolutely my meditation. I have invented many meditations,


but perhaps this will be the most essential and fundamental one. It can
take over the whole world.... If you cry and weep without any reason,
just as an exercise, a meditation...nobody will believe it.
"Tears have never been accepted as meditation. And I tell you, they are
not only a meditation, they are a medicine also. All that this world
needs is a good cleansing of the heart of all the inhibitions of the past.
And laughter and tears can do both. Tears will take out all the agony
that is hidden inside you and laughter will take all that is preventing
your ecstasy."
 Yakusan: Straight To The Point Of Enlightenment

A collection of five discourses given just a year before Osho left his
body, this book begins with a challenge to Rajiv Gandhi to either act
on his idealistic political speeches or spare us the torture. It contains
much for those trying to "be in the world and not of it."

 Yoga, The Science Of The Soul Vol 1


Talk on Patanjali's Yoga Sutras

Osho is saying that all the techniques of Yoga have really one
focus: how to use the mind. Rightly used it becomes no-mind and
you are absolutely silent; wrongly, it becomes so divided you go
insane. Through the sutras of Patanjali, Osho leads the reader step
by step toward an understanding of the mind—that it is not
something different from the body, and how to use it as an
instrument.

 Yoga, The Science Of The Soul Vol 2


Talk on Patanjali's Yoga Sutras

Osho says, "Patanjali is our future, 5000 years old." And when he
comments on Patanjali's sutras—about the two kinds of samadhi,
succeeding through total effort and surrender, meditating on the
AUM mantra, disease and anguish, breath and inner light, we see
the true significance of Osho as the key to open Patanjali into the
here and now.

 Yoga, The Science Of The Soul, Vol 3


Talk on Patanjali's Yoga Sutras

Osho brings a juiciness to the aridness of Patanjali's language


turning it into a fascinating garden of exploration. Patanjali says,
"When the activity of the mind is under control..."
Osho says, "The mind is a process...doesn't exist, only thoughts,
thoughts moving so fast that you think and feel that something
exists there in continuity. One thought comes, another thought
comes another, and they go on and on. The gap between them is so
small that you cannot see the gap between one thought and another.
So two thoughts become joined, they become a continuity. Because
of that continuity you think there is a mind."
Osho brings a simple but intriguing aspect to these sutras about
knowledge and reasoning, samadhi, samadhi with and without
contemplation, subtle objects of meditation and subtle energies. He
has the knack to remove the dust and tarnish of the passage of time
to make these sutras irresistible reading and vital for every seeker
to familiarize .

 Yoga The Alpha and The Omega, Vol 4


Talk on Patanjali's Yoga Sutras

Osho dissects the cause of misery -- our clinging to life and fear of
death, egoism, attraction and repulsion...our lack of awareness. At
the outset he puts the situation straight, that the austerity Patanjali
is talking about has nothing to do with torturing the body: "Life is
more if you are sensitive; life is less if you are less sensitive."
Osho as always has the vision and understanding to bring
everything, even the seemingly most complex to its simplest: "To
me life in its totality is good. And when you understand life in its
totality, only then can you celebrate... Celebration is my attitude,
unconditional to what life brings."

 Yoga The Alpha And The Omega, Vol 5


Talk on Patanjali's Yoga Sutras

Osho presents the eight steps of Yoga: self-restraint, fixed


observation, posture, breath regulation, abstraction, concentration,
contemplation and trance. With complete understanding and
compassion he speaks on what meditative techniques are best for
different types of people. There is no right or wrong only the
individual and his choice for that works best.

 Yoga The Alpha and The Omega, Vol 6


Talk on Patanjali's Yoga Sutras

Osho discusses modern scientific research on four states of


consciousness: alpha, beta, theta and delta; and continues to
expand on the significance of the eight steps of Yoga. Patanjali's
whole art is of how to attain to the state where you can die
willingly, with no resistance. These precious sutras are a
preparation, a preparation to die and a preparation to a greater life,
and you can use this book and Patanjali's methodology to touch
these very depths.
 Yoga The Alpha and The Omega, Vol 7
Talk on Patanjali's Yoga Sutras

Osho shows how three methods -- concentration, uninterrupted flow of


consciousness and oneness -- bring about an inner balance when
subject and object disappear. He defines Yoga as an attitude toward life
not concerned with metaphysics but with questions close to the
seeker's heart.

 Yoga The Alpha and The Omega, Vol 8


Talk on Patanjali's Yoga Sutras

Osho introduces Patanjali's sutras as scientific methods to commit


suicide—that is, real suicide, the death of the ego as a pretender. He
describes subtle obstacles that can arise when going within and
encourages the reader to understand that these are only tricks, sabotage
—that the only way to reach the goal is to search deeply within.

 Yoga The Alpha and The Omega, Vol 9


Talk on Patanjali's Yoga Sutras

Osho speaks of Patanjali's system of preparation for enlightenment as


empirical, a tool to work with. He talks on mastery over the five
bodies of the human personality—the food body, energy body, mental
body, intuitive body and the bliss body; cognition; non-attachment;
and liberation

 Yoga The Alpha and The Omega, Vol 10


Talk on Patanjali's Yoga Sutras

Osho talks at length on the mind and how it functions. He speaks


of desirelessness, enlightenment and pure consciousness. But what
is the art of liberation? "Nothing but the art of de-hypnosis," says
Osho, " -- how to drop this state of mind; how to become
unconditioned; how to look at reality without any idea creating a
barrier between you and the real; how to simply see without any
desires in the eyes; how simply to be without any motivation.
That's all yoga is about. Then suddenly that which is inside you,
and has always been inside you from the very beginning, is
revealed."
Z
 Zarathustra: A God That Can Dance

In the world's first line-by-line commentary on Friedrich Nietzsche's


Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Osho unravels the mystery of man's three
metamorphoses—from camel to lion to child. He sets the record
straight about the meaning of Nietzsche's concept of superman and
shows how we ourselves can become that man.

 Zarathustra: The laughing Prophet

Osho uses Nietzsche's diatribe against man's beliefs in his own


impotence as a medium to clarify the true nature of the
superman—Nietzsche's concept that was so tragically perverted
by Adolf Hitler. He unveils the superman as a man inalienably
connected to the cosmos, as a mystic and an innocent, cleansed of the
need for conquest. He also discusses Nietzsche's concept of will-to-
power, revealing how it can integrate man and lead him towards
creativity.

 Zen: All The Colors Of The Rainbow, Five Volume Set

In the seemingly enigmatic antics of Zen masters, Osho finds a


distillation of religiousness at its purest, its most playful and its most
profound. On the way he exposes man's traditional religions as nothing
more meaningful than superstitious beliefs in animals. Making use of a
vast array of stuffed toys brought into the discourse hall, and with
irreverent good humor, Osho debunks man's worship of elephants,
birds, snakes, horses, fish, and others.

"In this five-volume set of Zen, Osho is at the top of his form. He talks
about Gurdjieff, Gertrude Stein, drugs, Aldous Huxley, and everything
under the sun."

The Book Reader, USA

The Language of Existence

Nine discourses based on anecdotes of famous and little-known


Zen masters. Many of these stories were previously only available
in Japanese and were translated specially for this series of talks. In
his discussion of these stories Osho gives meditation techniques to
help understand and go beyond death, as well as techniques to be
used in everyday life. This book also contains Osho's most radical
insights into the problem of drugs and he presents a revolutionary
solution.

The Buddha: The Emptiness of the Heart

In this particularly potent dose of Zen, Osho challenges the reader


to know the "empty heart," the door to eternity that exists within
everyone. Using stories and haikus from past Zen masters, Osho
reveals the relevance of Zen for the contemporary world. He
separates Zen from all the other religions in the world, stating that
they are obsolete whereas the Zen he is presenting is an alive
phenomenon.

The Miracle

In this unique world of Zen, masters with strange sounding names


and even stranger behavior ask disciples odd questions and then hit
them whether their answers are right or wrong! Osho deciphers the
great game Zen masters play with their disciples and elucidates the
central message of Zen "nothingness." He also talks on students
and disciples, and the role of a spiritual master and how the energy
field of an enlightened being can affect the whole world.

Turning In

In these eight talks, each of which is based on the sayings of a


different enlightened Zen master, Osho gives detailed explanations
of the Zen method of meditation, "turning in." He outlines the
development of man's mind, and emphasizes that meditation is
essential not only for the growth of the individual, but ultimately
for the survival of the planet.

The Original Man

What's so original about the original man? Only that on finding


him within yourself, according to Osho you find everything worth
discovering. But he exhorts the seeker not to take his word for it
but experience it for yourself. Osho traces Zen from its beginnings
with Bodhidarma in China through a succession of masters and
poets. Seemingly absurd Zen statements and devices are all shown
as techniques used in specific situations with different types of
seekers to jolt them out of spiritual sleep. These discourses based
on anecdotes about masters and their disciples aren't about Zen,
they are it.

 Zen: The Diamond Thunderbolt

The "diamond thunderbolt" is that experience in which it is as if one is


shocked out of one's spiritual sleep and catapulted into the mystery of
existence. Through anecdotes and joke-telling, Osho creates a milieu
in which that can happen.

 The Zen Manifesto: Freedom From Oneself

"Zen has nothing to do with the mind... It is the lion's roar. And the
greatest thing that Zen has brought into the world is freedom from
oneself." Osho.

The Zen Manifesto is a collection of the last discourses of Osho with


his last publicly spoken words. In this culmination of his insights into
Zen he makes it clear that the West's comprehension of Zen is still
confined to intellectual appreciation. To prove it, Osho takes on such
respected members of the Western Zen establishment as D.T. Suzuki,
Thomas Merton, Paul Reps, Alan Watts and Nancy Wilson-Ross.

 Zen: The Mystery and Poetry of The Beyond

Through enigmatic Zen anecdotes and questions from his disciples,


Osho exposes the narrow-mindedness of organized religions and sheds
new light on the ecological and social crises of today.

 Zen: The Path Of Paradox, Vol 1

"Life, in every dimension, is paradoxical. So religion has to


be paradoxical. If a religion is not paradoxical then it is just
poor philosophy. Then it is just man-made, mind- created,
just a theology -- not religion." Osho

Day and night, summer and winter, life and death...nature


itself is paradox and Zen the simple mirror reflection of
life. Remain choiceless, says Osho, and you will remain
true. Relax and let go into the way things really are. Neither
good nor bad, negative nor positive -- only existence, with
no judgment and the utter freedom to be. Enlightenment is
finding that there is nothing to find. In alternate sessions
Osho also answers questions about why there can't be just
one religion in the world, the difference between
philosophy, psychology and religion, guilt, spontaneity,
projection, defense mechanisms, intuition, and more.

 Zen: The Path Of Paradox, Vol 2

"Life, in every dimension, is paradoxical. So religion has to be


paradoxical. If a religion is not paradoxical then it is just poor
philosophy. Then it is just man-made, mind- created, just a theology—
not religion."

"In Zen a totally new dimension opens, the dimension of effortless


transformation. The dimension of transformation that comes naturally,
by clearer eyes, by clarity. By seeing into the nature of things, without
any hindrances, without any prejudices." This book is brimming with
anecdotes showing life's paradox, that if you look around everywhere
you will find contradiction. And the message is clear, that the more we
dissect and analyze the more neurotic we become. The man of Zen has
utter respect for himself; he does not believe in outer disciplines, rules
and regulations; he trusts the inner—a trust that comes out of
meditation—"and trust makes nature divine."

 Zen: The Path Of paradox, Vol 3

"Life, in every dimension, is paradoxical. So religion has to be


paradoxical. If a religion is not paradoxical then it is just poor
philosophy. Then it is just man-made, mind- created, just a theology—
not religion."

"Truth cannot be said, but can be shown," and Osho leaves no stone
unturned along the path—Zen koans, the nature of Satori, the three
Pillars of Zen, the Man of No Title, the Great Doubt. And the
landscape is vividly peopled with outlandish figures—Joshua and his
jokes, Chi Ch'ang, the master archer, Rinzai answering the questions
and beating up the questioner. Meet Bankei, Bossui and Emperor Wu.
Osho hits all the sacred cows and strips away all illusions. "Zen is
looking for the spectacles that are sitting on your nose already." So,
have a good belly laugh. Have a cup of tea!

 Zen: The Quatum Leap

The quantum leap, according to Osho, is from mind to no-mind from


ego-mind to inner consciousness. It is all that is needed for self-
transformation and it can happen instantaneously. Osho speaking on
Zen is a must for anyone who senses "there must be more to life than
this." There is and Osho infuses it into our reality right here, in this
small but potent book.

 Zen: The Solitary Bird, Cuckoo Of The Forest

In this series Osho takes us deeply into the mysteries of the inner
world. He explains that the existence of the mind is peripheral and can
only exist on the circumference of our consciousness. It is a fine
instrument for outside inquiry, but inhibits the internal search. In those
moments when we enter our being, it disappears. This is meditation.

 Zen: The Special Transmission

Osho describes the time of Zen as an era when simplicity of life was a
cultural reality. Today, humanity is caught up in the mad complexity of
the mind, and as never before, there is an urgent need to rediscover
simplicity and innocence. He brings to life the inherent and timeless
wisdom of traditional Zen stories. In alternate discourses anything
goes in a question-and-response game between Osho and seekers as
they pose questions such as: Can a woman really drive a man crazy?
Why are you called 'the sex guru'? I don't see any purpose in
meditation...?

 Zen: Zest, Zip, Zap and Zing

Osho devotes this series of discourses entirely to responding to


seekers' questions on a whole range of topics innocence, freedom,
love, sex, compassion and women. He also expounds on his vision of
India, and his personal "philousia" life, love and laughter. While these
discourses were being delivered, one of Osho's most-loved disciples
died.
Osho speaks on the life and death of his disciple Swami Anand
Vimalkirti, formerly Prince Welf of Hannover, who attained
enlightenment at the moment of his death. The book includes many
magnificent color photographs of Vimalkirti's death celebration.
