Description

What is meditation? -- Meditation is your nature -- Meditation and the failure of success -- Healing the split between body and soul -- Meditation is life, not livelihood -- Bliss is the goal, meditation is the means -- Everybody is a born mystic -- Mind is a chatterbox -- Mind is a social phenomenon -- Mind thinks, meditation knows -- Psychology of the Buddhas -- Self-awareness, not self-consciousness -- Osho active meditations for modern man -- Responses to questions from meditators.;"The mind, says Osho, has the potential to be enormously creative in dealing with the challenges of everyday life, and the problems of the world in which we live. The difficulty, however, is that instead of using the mind as a helpful servant we have largely allowed it to become the master of our lives.... Meditation is the switch that can silence the mind. A sharper, more relaxed and creative mind-one that can function at the peak of its unique intelligence- is the potential. Osho introduces meditation for contemporary life"-- Back cover.
