Work is Love made visible

!

Hardcover, 268 pages

Translating an Enlightened Vision into Action

“If you engage in any work with courage, there is no barrier to its success.” Osho

In Work Is Love Made Visible Osho is talking about his work: its importance and value, the inner qualities that those interested in helping it succeed need to understand and to develop, and its day-to-day organization. These talks were given shortly after he had left his university post in order to share his vision for humanity with as many people as possible, and are addressed to the people who had recently started working with him. Osho discusses the profound personal issues that work brings up for everyone around hierarchy, power, responsibility, and the art of relating, demonstrating at the same time a supreme respect for each person’s individuality, dignity and freedom.
He covers every practical area of his work, from the perils and practicalities of financial accounting to the importance of using the most up-to-date media available. Underpinning all of this is his understanding that unless humanity is prepared to walk through the fire of awareness and allow work itself to become a moment-by-moment tool for self-transformation, no one will ever derive any real benefit from working and no work will ultimately succeed.
Osho outlines his blueprint for a new “anarchic institution” and says: “I do not intend to bind people by laws, rules or principles, because I am fighting against these very things.” Instead, his proposal is rooted in “a gathering of friends,” as it prepares the ground for a spiritual revolution – a total transformation for the individual and for the whole of society.

I say unto You-Vol.1

Hardcover, 274 pages

Talks on the Sayings of Jesus

In I Say unto You, we are introduced to a dynamic, compassionate, intelligent, loving Jesus, who speaks in a plain and simple way that everyone can understand, rather than the longfaced, sad and tortured man often depicted down the centuries. Osho looks with a crystal-clear perception and humor at Jesus’ work, inviting us to see the parables and miracles as metaphors of the inner world. He gives insight into Jesus’ own search, and his journeys to the ancient mystery schools of Egypt, Kashmir and Tibet that transformed him into one of the most evolved masters of the two paths of love and meditation – so relevant for today’s societies where the sharp functioning of the mind is more valued than the intelligence of the heart.
Osho places Jesus amongst the great mystics of our time: an extraordinary man whose work went unacknowledged by his own people and was misunderstood by the creators of Christianity.
“When life is a mystery, only then are you religious.” Osho

Philosophia Perennis 2

274 pages, Hardbound

Talks on Pythagoras, the Philosopher and Mystic

In this book Osho sheds light on the ancient and little-known teachings of Pythagoras, the Greek mathematician and mystic.
This is the second collection of talks in the series that Osho titled Philosophia Perennis, meaning the perennial philosophy, the timeless laws of existence. Far from being a dry, academic center of learning, the “mystery school” of Pythagoras was alive with music, dance, celebration and meditation. Osho clarifies how the combination of these seemingly polar opposites creates a unique meeting of religion and science. While introducing the reader to the wisdom of Pythagoras, Osho also brings his insight to topics including psychoanalysis, education, politics, revolutions, sex, and religion. Be prepared for a mind-blowing read.

Reflections on Kahlil Gibran´s The Prophet

!

Hardbound, 768 pages

Osho loves Gibran, but, unlike the millions before him who have just extolled the beauty and splendor of his words, he sees not only where Gibran soars and takes flight, but also the times where his words fall again to the earth – still beautiful, but ultimately missing an existential depth. In Reflections, Osho examines Gibran’s poetic explorations of life – and goes further. He looks at whether Gibran is “a mystic of the highest order,” simply a poet “who speaks in words of gold” – or perhaps an extraordinary mixture of the two. Throughout this book, Osho comprehensively trounces the so-called religious and philosophical approaches to life. All that is of worth is to be found, not in the extraordinary, but in the ordinary; not in fantastical ideas of the other world but in this very world that we find ourselves in. In short, this book shows that making a simple yet utterly basic shift in our lives will awaken the silence in our beings and bring joy into our every moment. “Kahlil Gibran… The very name brings so much ecstasy and joy that it is impossible to think of another name comparable to him. Just hearing the name, bells start ringing in the heart which do not belong to this world. Kahlil Gibran is pure music, a mystery, such that only poetry can sometimes grasp, but only sometimes.” Osho

    112 Keys to Unlock the Mystery Within

    Now all in one volume for the first time! Osho’s contemporary interpretation of the secret teachings of the 4000-year-old Vigyan Bhairav Tantra, is now collected all in one impressive volume, published by St. Martin’s Press and available from literal bookshops throughout North America and from virtual bookshops on line. Osho goes line by line through each of the mysterious teachings that were first made known in the West by Paul Reps in the last chapter of his book, Zen Flesh, Zen Bones. In the process, we learn that these verses are, in fact, highly condensed, telegraphic instructions for 112 different meditation techniques. Osho describes each technique in detail, and explains how we can experiment to find out if it is the right technique for us. The Book of Secrets was originally delivered as a series of talks, so Osho also answers questions from his audience about the techniques, and about their experiences in meditation.

    "The Book of Secrets" invites us to experience and experiment with everyday life through the awareness of our senses. Osho discusses 112 individual meditation techniques drawn from ancient texts - meditations that focus on consciousness of the present moment. Osho describes each technique in detail and explains how to discover those best suited to each of us and how to integrate them into our daily lives.
    The new edition of "The Book of Secrets" includes: a DVD with original Osho talk and introduction to meditation (from the series: From Misery to Enlightenment #2)
    Meditation and discussion texts revised and reworked for clarity; elegant new interior design; new introduction; new easy-to-read trim size. In "The Book of Secrets", the secrets of the science of the "Vigyan Bhairav Tantra" texts become available to contemporary audience. Confined to small, hidden mystery schools for centuries and often misunderstood today, tantra is not just a method of enhancing sexual experience, but a complete science of self-realization based on the cumulative wisdom of centuries of exploration into the meaning of life and consciousness. Tantra - the very word means technique - is a set of powerful transformative tools that can be used to bring new meaning and joy to every aspect of our daily live.

    The Book of Nothing

    !

    Hardbound, 296 pages

    Talks on the Faith Mind of Sosan 

    There is little known about the ancient Zen master, Sosan, yet with very few words he has revealed how a river finds its course, how a seeker finds his path without knowing. Step by step, Osho unlocks the meaning within Sosan’s verses, revealing the individual, tangible maps contained within every seeker of truth. Through this book the reader can be awakened to sense his own way forward. 

    This is not a guide book filled with instructions on which turns to take, which decisions to make. It is a book in which Osho skillfully uses words to carve a path into the heart of meditation – a phenomenal journey that begins with the words on a page and ends in the most profound silence of The Book of Nothing: Hsin Hsin Ming. 



    Reviews

    "Sosan’s book is so small, just like Isa Upanishad, and far more significant. When I say that my heart breaks, because I would like Isa to be the ultimate book, but what can I do? – Sosan has defeated it. Tears come to my eyes because Isa is defeated, and also because Sosan is victorious”.

    CELEBRATING THE JOY OF LIFE, LOVE AND MEDITATION 

    In this collection of responses to questions, Osho captures his entire message: “My whole teaching consists of two words, meditation and love.” Here, he also introduces his vision of the new man who embodies the teaching – Zorba the Buddha. Into one identity, he brings together the lusty nature of Zorba the Greek and the silent stillness of the Buddha. The earthy Zorba and the ethereal Buddha are melded to become a silence which can sing and dance. The jokes are numerous and hilarious. Come and hear the message; meditate, love – and laugh!

    Innermost Secrets of Consciousness 

    The New Alchemy: To Turn You On is a practical, detailed guide for those exploring meditation. Osho has a vast understanding of the steps and pitfalls along the way and the unique gift of communicating them directly and simply. 

    “Whenever you have found a technique, a way, retreat within, go within. Experiment with it there, in your subjectivity, in your heart. Experience it. Don’t just go on thinking about what meditation is. Do it! Only then will you know what it is.” 

    While the emphasis is on active meditation, Osho skillfully interweaves commentaries on Mabel Collins’ Light on the Path, to further support the seeker’s understanding. 

    “These are the sutras achieved by ultimate wisdom. They are deep and sometimes very complex, even contradictory, but they are the ultimate flowering of wisdom.”

    Power, Politics, and Change takes on the conventional wisdom that “power corrupts” and proposes instead that those who seek power are already corrupt: Once they attain their goal, their corruption simply has the opportunity to express itself. That’s why even those who seek power in order to bring about radical change so often fail, despite their best intentions.
    Osho looks at where this “will to power” comes from, how it expresses itself not only in political institutions, but in our everyday relationships. In the process, he offers a vision of relationships and society based not on power over others, but on a recognition of the uniqueness of every individual.
    Power, Politics, and Change includes an original talk by Osho on DVD. This visual component enables the reader to experience the direct wisdom and humor of Osho straight from the source. The Osho Life Essentials series focuses on the most important questions in the life of the individual. Each volume contains timeless and always-contemporary investigations and discussions into questions vital to our personal search for meaning and purpose, focusing on questions specific to our inner life and quality of existence.

    The Osho Life Essentials series focuses on the most important questions in the life of the individual. Each volume contains timeless and always-contemporary investigations and discussions into questions vital to our personal search for meaning and purpose. The Osho Life Essentials series focuses on questions specific to our inner life and quality of existence, for example: Is it possible to have an authentic spirituality without a belief in God? What is meditation and how does it work? What can I do as an individual to make the world a better place? The third title in this dynamic and exciting series, Innocence, Knowledge, and Wonder, looks to each person’s last state of innocence--childhood--to recover the ability to truly be curious. Osho discusses why it is important to look to our "inner child" and how it can help you understand the person you have become. Each title in the Osho Life Essential series is accompanied by a DVD of Osho speaking about the questions addressed in the book. This visual component enables the reader to experience the direct wisdom and humor of Osho straight from the source. Each book and DVD in the OSHO Life Essentials series offers truly unique and transformative responses to essential and timeless questions that we can use as stepping stones to a greater understanding of who we are and why we are here.

    160 p., Paperback, with DVD included

    Today, humanity is caught up in the mad complexity of the mind and there is an urgent need to rediscover simplicity and innocence. Here, contemporary mystic Osho brings to life the inherent and timeless wisdom of traditional Zen stories, showing that Zen is a way of dissolving philosophical problems, not of solving them — a way of getting rid of philosophy, because philosophy is a sort of neurosis. 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.

    The Empty Boat

    234 p., Paperback, with DVD included

    In this highly accessible introduction to Zen and its spiritual origins, Osho talks on the stories of Chinese mystic Chuang Tzu, revitalizing the 300-year-old Taoist message of self-realization. He speaks about the state of egolessness, or "the empty boat," spontaneity, dreams and wholeness, living life choicelessly, and meeting death with the same equanimity. This beautiful new edition overflows with the wisdom of one who has realized the state of egolessness himself.

    Tales by a british journalist about his life with a controversial indian mystic

    Subhuti’s introduction:
    “The tales in this book are snapshots of an unnecessary journey, undertaken by a man who did not need to go anywhere. He went in order to help people who did not want to be helped, to give them something they already had. He irritated them so badly that 99 percent of them wanted him silenced. But the remaining one percent loved him, bowed down to him and thanked him for coming. I am one of those. This is my story. This is my dance with a madman. I hope you enjoy it."

    The Diamond Sutra

    !

    Paperback, 240 pages

    Written over 25 centuries ago, "The Diamond Sutra", like many sutras, begins with the famous phrase 'Thus have I heard'. In this sutra the Buddha has finished his daily walk with the monks to gather offerings of food, and sits down to rest. One of the more senior monks, Subhuti, comes forth and asks the Buddha a question. What follows is a dialogue regarding the nature of perception. In this book Osho offers his unique and highly accessible interpretation of the Buddha's words.
    When you read Osho, it is as if you are in the audience while he speaks. The words are recordings of his teachings - the easy, humorous conversational style makes for effortless reading and brings the most complex ideas into a form that anyone can understand and learn from. His irreverent wit and thought-provoking inspiration continue to attract growing numbers of readers and devotees. 'This sutra - "The Diamond Sutra" - was born in Sravasti.
    The Sanskrit name of this sutra is "Vajrachchhedika Prajnaparamita Sutra". It means perfection of wisdom which cuts like a thunderbolt. If you allow, Buddha can cut you like a thunderbolt. He can behead you. He can kill you and help you to be reborn. The new being is possible only when the old has been destroyed. A buddha has to be both - a murderer and a mother. On the one hand he has to kill, on the other hand he has to give new being to you.

    Reflections on the Poetry of an Enlightened Woman, Sahajo

    This is an extraordinarily rich and touching book, because we are given the chance to savor the words of an enlightened man, commenting for the first time on the poetry, heart, and being of Sahajo - an enlightened woman from eighteenth-century Rajasthan. Speaking on Sahajo’s "sutras of love" and answering related questions, Osho describes, often very humorously, different paths and pitfalls of the female and male seeker - with beautiful insights into the differences between the female and male ego - and what happens to both women and men as they approach enlightenment.
    Osho makes this available for the present day woman to see into her very nature and use the inspiration of this enlightened mystic to retain her femininity and grace on the path.

    The Osho Upanishad

    !

    New Edition, Hardbound

    This book begins with the question, "Could you please explain the work of a mystery school?" And Osho goes on to describe the support that such schools give to the seekers of truth, throughout time, the world over.
    Commencing this series of talks at the completion of his World Tour, Osho declares the beginning of a new phase of his own work saying: "Books can be written, can be dictated to a machine, but what I am going to start is totally different. It is an upanishad." Osho explains that "Upanishad" means to be taken into the world of the master - and this is the work of his mystery school. Responding to a myriad of insightful, existential and sincere questions - What is mysticism? What is fear? What is freedom? Buddha, Rinzai, Krishnamurti, Marx, Gandhi, Bodhidharma, Nietzsche, Jesus, Gurdjieff, Zarathustra - they all become grist to Osho’s mill, bringing the reader to the point of awareness where all questions begin to disappear.

    Talks on Zen Stories

    Osho uses these Zen stories to illustrate that holding onto the unessential is the barrier to our inner nature; losing needless attachments is a way to realization. In the title story, the nun Chiyono is carrying a pail of water and gazing at the reflection of the moon in the water. The pail starts to fall apart. She tries desperately to hold it together but fails.
    The water pours out, and the reflection of the moon disappears. As the bucket falls apart, so do her mental constructs, and she realizes her inner self. These Zen stories on the surface seem absurd, but the meaning of Zen cannot be stated in words; it can only be implied by parable.
    Osho employs these parables to elucidate the foibles of common thinking and to suggest ways to become aware of who we really are.

    Osho’s extraordinary talks on Zen are recognized works of genius, studied in Zen monasteries and universities throughout the world. His inspiring books cover everything from the wisdom of the world’s mystics to answers to intensely personal questions about meditation and the inner search. His unique authenticity touches the reader in a way no other can.
    In this book Osho tears down the very idea that there is a path to follow. There is only “the way of the birds,” flying freely in the open sky. Commenting on Zen stories and the simple beauty and acuity of Zen poetry, Osho invites the reader to turn in and experience their own silence within, where Zen is no longer a set of ideas or practices, but a state of being.

    In this very special series of questions and answers Osho talks on the death and enlightenment of his own father, which occurred at this time. He also shines his unique light on subjects as diverse as science and meditation, personality and essence, homosexuality, witnessing, and silence. “He left the world in utter silence, in joy, in peace. He left the world like a lotus flower – it was worth celebrating. And these are the occasions for you to learn how to live and how to die. Each death should be a celebration, but it can be a celebration only if it leads you to higher planes of existence.” Osho

    Talks on the Shiva Sutras Everyone is searching for happiness, says Osho, but because they are looking in the wrong direction – outside – no one ever really finds it. Real happiness, bliss, can only be found inside. It can be reached by learning the “knack” of dis-identifying with the mind.
    This book on the ancient wisdom of the Shiva Sutras explains how to do this. These sutras will challenge and disturb people’s ideas about how life can be lived, but they also reveal how bliss is already hidden within the states we all experience daily: waking, dreaming and sleeping.
    He shows how to dis-identify from the desires and attachments of the mind that trap everyone during this life, and pull them into the next. “The beginning of being human happens only when we get out of this vicious circle called mind.”

    Talks on Zen Buddhism 

    In these delightful and playful talks, available for the first time in one volume, Osho introduces the mystery, the wonder, and the emptiness that is Zen. He uses the poetry of one of the most outrageous Zen masters, Ikkyu, to show the ways and methods a Zen master uses to permanently transform, rather than simply inform. 

    Osho and Ikkyu’s whole message is about how to experience the essence of emptiness: that blissful state of no-mind where all old conditionings are gone and man is free just to be himself. As Osho speaks of Ikkyu, and answers people’s questions, he is also speaking of himself. As he speaks of who Ikkyu is, he is revealing more about himself. 

    These talks can change the life of anyone who has an open mind. Osho’s words are a fire that burns away old enslaving concepts, and fears that have constricted people’s lives for millenia. He gives a fresh, new understanding of himself, and shows how each person can find the way to light his own path.

    The Luminous Rebel - Osho Biography

    !

    268 p., Paperback

    Life Story of a Maverick Mystic

    A rebel, an iconoclast, an enlightened mystic and an intellectual giant, Osho (also known as Acharya Rajneesh and Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh) is all this and more. He brought about a spiritual revolution in the lives of those who cared to grow intellectually. He spoke fearlessly against orthodox religions, priests, politicians, age-old traditions and anything he thought was a hindrance to the path of self-realisation. This made him the most talked about and controversial mystic of the twentieth century.

    Osho, The Luminous Rebel traces the story of Osho from his birth, talking about his spiritual search for truth and the wondrous story of his enlightenment. The book also takes the reader for the early years of Osho’s struggle with authority figures, to the much -hyped city of Rajneeshpuram in the US and his incarceration in various jails across the US, where he believes he was poisoned by the US government.He was later denied visa in twenty-one countries across the world –events, he reveals, that exposed the true face of ‘democracy’.

    Osho, The Luminous Rebel is for all Osho lovers and admirers, for the uninitiated and the spiritually inclined, and for those who are just curious to know more.
