Nicely sums up Osho's teaching,
By Swami Antar Urjas (Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews
This review is from: An ABC of Enlightenment: A Spiritual Dictionary for the Here and Now (Hardcover)
This book contains concise quotes from Osho on a variety of topics. For those who are unfamiliar with him, this is the best possible introduction to his teachings. For seasoned students of Osho, this is a good quick-reference. I am definitely glad I got this book.

Oshos thoughts on words,

This review is from: The ABC of Enlightenment: A Spiritual Dictionary for the Here and Now (Paperback)
'The ABC of Enlightenment' is not a dictionary but a book on life itself. It defines words, but not without further perplexing the reader. The books goes through a few hundred words and has a paragraph about each one. Don't look for Webster's here-- the definitions are intensely abstract.
One of my favorite definitions was for courage: "Courage is risking the known for the unknown, the familiar for the unfamiliar, the comfortable for the uncomfortable, arduous pilgrimage to some unknown destination. We never know whether we will be able to make it or not. It is gambling, but only gamblers know what life is." From 'Absolute' to 'Zen' Osho is never at lack of profoundness. This book is one to buy-- during the tough times in life, we often need a voice that is centered, wise, and forgiving. Osho provides that well. |
