The Press about Osho
'Summarizing
the thoughts of a man whosetranscribed teachings have sold a purported
15 million volumes worldwide is not easy. Perhaps the kernel is
Osho's notion that the perfect human being combines the earthly
zest of Zorba the Greek and the transcendental spirituality of Buddha.'
Los Angeles Times
'...unencumbered by tradition, an enlightened master who could
quote Heidegger and Sartre, and who furthermore believed in technology,
capitalism and sex.'
The Washington Post
'Like Socrates, he was considered a corrupter of the morals of
young people, like all true philosophers he demolished a belief
system that produced only unhappiness, not joy. His greatness was
that he didn't give solutions, only tools for people to realize
themselves.'
Elle, Italy
'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: jokes, limericks, verse and tales, combined
with traditional religious themes.'
Library Journal, United States
'Throughout Osho's teachings runs a golden thread of sparkling
humor.'
Vogue, United Kingdom
'Drawn from a variety of ideologies and religious traditions, but
bearing their own stamp, Osho's teachings are uncompromisingly radical,
anti-rational and capricious. They invite the individual to free
his or her self from all social conditioning; the only commitment
is to be open and honest, to enjoy life, love oneself. Osho is one
of the '1.000 makers of the 20th Century'.'
