Encounters with an Inexplicable Man - Stories of Osho as Told by his People
Product Description
About the book
During the 1970s and '80s, while most people went about their business, a strange phenomenon was occurring all over the world. Thousands of successful, educated men and women left their homes in different countries to make the pilgrimage to India, and later the US, to meet a charismatic contemporary mystic whose controversial views and dynamic presence spoke to their hearts, minds and beings.
Here was a man who was not afraid to directly challenge the authority of organised religion; who confronted governments and worldly establishments head-on; who managed to raise hackles and provoke reactions among all political, intellectual and ideological factions. With his informally expressed insights into everything from the smallest personal issues to the greatest eternal truths, he uncovered seekers' longings for a new way of being. His remedy for all the troubles in the world was both simple and ancient: meditation.
He became known as the most loved and most condemned spiritual master of our time ÛÒ so controversial that the United States government did everything in its power to destroy him. His name: Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh. Or, as he is known today: Osho.
What did it mean to work on self-transformation in the community of this spiritual anarchist? To be buffeted from pillar to post in the energy-field of the 20th centuryÛªs most misunderstood mystic?
The 94 stories and anecdotes in this book give us an intimate glimpse of Osho's world as experienced through the eyes and hearts of those who came from all walks of life to live in his communes, sit in his presence and talk to him.
