More About the Author

Osho, known for his revolutionary contribution to the science of inner transformation, continues to inspire millions of people worldwide in their search to define a new approach to individual spirituality that is self-directed and responsive to the everyday challenges of contemporary life. The Sunday Times of London named him one of the '1,000 Makers of the Twentieth Century,' and novelist Tom Robbins called him 'the most dangerous man since Jesus Christ.' For more information about Osho and his work, please visit osho.com.


Osho's teachings defy categorization, covering everything from the individual quest for meaning to the most urgent social and political issues facing individuals and society today.

His unique "Osho Active Meditations" are designed to first release the accumulated stresses of body and mind, so that it is easier to experience the thought-free and relaxed state of meditation. (Meditation -The First and Last Freedom, by Osho)

About his own work Osho has said that he is helping to create the conditions for the birth of a new kind of human being. He has often characterized this new human being as "Zorba the Buddha" -- capable both of enjoying the earthy pleasures of a Zorba the Greek and the silent serenity of a Gautam Buddha.

Running like a thread through all aspects of Osho's work is a vision that encompasses both the timeless wisdom of the East and the highest potential of Western science and technology.

Osho has been described by the Sunday Times in London as one of the "1000 Makers of the 20th Century" and by American author Tom Robbins as "the most dangerous man since Jesus Christ."

Osho has been called the greatest spiritual teacher of the 20th century.

In these breathtakingly penetrating commentaries on Zen stories aout the great Masters, he brings light into our darkness, encouraging us to listen with our hearts and not our minds. Minutely examining every phrase, every word, he opens each story out like a flower, so that we are able to absorb its profound wisdom, and bring it into our everyday lives.

Osho's tone is always patient, compassionate and intimate. He is the perfect master and companion on our journey along the path to fufillment.

Osho has been described by the Sunday Times as one of the 1,000 makers of the 20th century, His ahram in India became a mecca with men and women from the West seeking spiritual guidance and transformation.
