"Oh yes Osho! Photo from hollywoodreporter.com I read a lot of Osho's books and I believe Rebellion was my favorite so far. I have been reading a lot about rebellion and how creativity is the greatest form of rebellion in life. It's important to stand up for what you believe in and to fight for equality. ... So I read Osho because not only do I love his work and what he writes about, but I guess I am kind of an Indian hippie!" “I feel so blessed. I never would have imagined years ago that I would be able to come to India and perform and to meet my new amazing fans that are here,” she said in her opening remarks. “The sights in India are beautiful but the most beautiful sights are the people.” Lady Gaga's Indian fashion statement was further enhanced with her colorful flowing dress which she said was designed by a New York-based designer of Indian origin Naeem Khan. The award-winning pop diva's Indian connection was seen earlier this year in one of her messa...

<...> You don’t have a God, but you become godly. Hence I say, the moment you drop God you are moving in the right direction of becoming godly. You will be divine in your ecstasies, in your silent spaces of the being. You will be divine. But you will be divine because you will be participating in the divine existence. Everything is sacred to the man who has come to know himself, who has discovered his hidden secret of life. Everything becomes sacred. <...> Osho. I celebrate myself: God is no where--life is now here <...> God has to be forgotten. If you remember God you will go to the church and to the temple and to the mosque and you will do all kinds of stupid things which have been done down the centuries. If you remember godliness then it is not a question of going to Kaaba or Kashi; then it is a question of living it. Then live in a way that is godly. Live in harmony, live beautifully, live aesthetically, live sensitively, live lovingly. Let...

'Danger: Truth at Work' goes to the heart of our most fundamental human issues. Why can't we just live happily and be content? While we seem to have all the knowledge we need to solve our problems, we haven't. In this timely book, Osho explains that religious conditioning has held us back. Each chapter covers a different aspect of this conditioning, and, in gentle but persuasive language, shows readers how to transcend it. Individual chapters cover such subjects as The Nuclear Family: The Imminent Meltdown; Pseudo-Religion: The Stick-on Soul; They Say Believe, I Say Explore; and Ecstasy Is Now: Why Wait? and others. The enclosed DVD gives a firsthand experience of the process, which Osho calls a "dry cleaning of the mind." 'The Magic of Self-Respect' -So much of the experience of everyday life, says Osho in this insightful guide, is shaped by religious and social conditioning — and we are not even aware of the fact. We are constantly ...

<...> Tantra means technique. So this treatise is a scientific one. Science is not concerned with why, science is concerned with how. That is   the basic difference between philosophy and science. Philosophy asks, “Why this existence?” Science asks, “How this existence?” The moment you ask the question, how?, method and technique become important. Theories become meaningless; experience becomes the center. Tantra is science, Tantra is not philosophy. To understand philosophy is easy because only your intellect is required. If you can understand language, if you can understand concepts, you can understand philosophy. You need not change; you require no transformation. As you are, you can understand philosophy—but not Tantra. You will need a change … rather, a mutation. Unless you are different, Tantra cannot be understood because Tantra is not an intellectual proposition, it is an experience. Unless you are receptive, ready, vulnerable to the experience, it is not going t...

A Practical Guide to Osho Meditations Meditation: The First and Last Freedom shows that meditation is not a spiritual discipline separate from everyday life in the real world. In essence, it is simply the art of being aware of what is going on inside and around us. As we acquire the knack, meditation can be our companion wherever we are-at work, at play, at rest. The meditation contains practical, step-by-step guides to a wide variety of meditation techniques selected by and/or created by Osho, including the unique OSHO Active Meditations which deal with the special tensions of contemporary life. Recognizing that it's almost impossible for most people these days just to stop and sit silently, these meditations - including the Osho Dynamic Meditation and Osho Kundalini Meditation - begin with one or more stages of vigorous physical activity. This brings our physical and mental energies to a peak so that the following silence is easy -- leaving us alert, refreshed, and new...

"Not believing, but only experiencing, says Osho in this inspiring book, is a way of finding truth and meaning. While Nietzsche's declaration that "God is dead, therefore the man is free" was an incredible step in understanding, he argues, it is in itself a negative solution and does not bring freedom. Simply removing God is not enough. In  The God Conspiracy , Osho offers a-solution beyond-Nietzsche - meditation, a direct connection with existence itself.  Here he shows how Zen and meditation allow us to find meaning and significance, creativity, receptivity, and a path to freedom. Zen has no God, but it has a tremendous power to transform our consciousness, to bring so much awareness that committing evil becomes inconceivable. This book argues persuasively that transformation cannot be imposed, but must come from one-s innermost being and understanding.
