You may have heard The Starfish Story in which the old men asked the boy why does he bother to throw them back into the ocean, one by one, when there were tens of thousands of starfish on the beach, doomed to die when the sun will rise, because he won't be able to make much of a difference !? ... and the boy, after picking up another starfish and throwing it as far as he could into the ocean, said smilingly : “It made a difference to that one!”
That's what is about here!
Capturing the unpredictable, dynamite essence of Zen, Osho speaks on Master Rinzai, who brought Zen from China to Japan, and who is truly a master of the irrational – a Zen master who sticks his tongue out at one disciple and who created the shout as a device to shock the mind. In these talks on anecdotes from Rinzai′s life, Osho continually reminds us that it is only a question of time – that everyone is going to become a Buddha. He encourages the reader not to believe, but to experience – to have the trust that "if so many people can become enlightened, there is no reason why I cannot." In this small volume he also comments on the timeless paintings in words of the famous haiku writer, Ikkyu. A gem for everyone from the curious to the seasoned seeker.
Discourses on the Bhakti Sutras of Narada — ancient verses defining the nature and path of devotion. Osho opens by describing bhakti as an invitation extended to all existence, an effort to embrace the whole, rather than a discipline or scripture to be followed. Across these talks he explores devotion as something closer to falling in love with the universe than performing religious duty, weaving Narada's terse aphorisms into a wider meditation on surrender, remembrance, and the dissolving of the seeker into what is sought.
नारद के भक्ति सूत्रों पर प्रवचन—ऐसे प्राचीन श्लोक जो भक्ति की प्रकृति और मार्ग को परिभाषित करते हैं। ओशो भक्ति को किसी अनुशासन या पालन किए जाने वाले शास्त्र के बजाय, समस्त ...
A 10-part discourse series opening with the image of a bird that builds only a small nest of grass for rest, while humans have built ever more elaborate homes seeking a similar refuge — leading into Osho's exploration of "anahad," the unstruck, soundless sound at the core of existence, as the ultimate and final resting place beyond which no further shelter is needed. Osho draws distinctions between science and true knowing, thought and thoughtlessness, and the manufactured calm of old age versus authentic inner peace.
एक 10-भाग वाली प्रवचन-श्रृंखला जो एक पक्षी की छवि से शुरू होती है जो विश्राम के लिए केवल घास का एक छोटा घोंसला बनाता है, जबकि मनुष्य ने वैसी ही शरण की तलाश में अधिकाधिक विस्तृत घर बनाए हैं—इससे ओशो अस्तित्व के केंद्र में स्थित "अनहद," अनाहत, ध्वनि-रहित नाद की खोज में उतरते हैं, जो अंतिम विश्राम-स्थल है जिसके आगे कोई और शरण नहीं चाहिए। ओशो विज्ञान और सच्चे ज्ञान, विचार और निर्विचार, तथा बुढ़ापे की बनावटी शांति और वास्तविक आंतरिक शांति के बीच भेद करते हैं।
A 17-part discourse series given by Osho at Mount Abu in October 1971, based on the ancient Adhyatma Upanishad. Osho explores the nature of jivanmukti — liberation while still alive — describing the liberated one as someone who remains equanimous whether honored by the virtuous or wounded by the wicked, and who no longer distinguishes between the individual soul, ultimate reality, and creation through mere intellectual knowledge. A profound inquiry into what it means to know Brahman directly rather than conceptually.
ओशो द्वारा अक्तूबर 1971 में माउंट आबू में दिए गए 17-भाग वाले प्रवचनों की श्रृंखला, जो प्राचीन अध्यात्म उपनिषद् पर आधारित है। ओशो जीवन्मुक्ति की प्रकृति की खोज करते हैं—जीवित रहते हुए ...
A compendium of Osho's meditation techniques and personal letters to disciples — including Dynamic, Nadabrahma, Kundalini, Nataraj, Vipassana, Gourishankar, Mandal, Prayer, Kirtan, and Sufi whirling meditations — along with sutras on witnessing, silence, and awareness in daily life.
ओशो की ध्यान विधियों और शिष्यों को लिखे व्यक्तिगत पत्रों का संकलन — जिसमें सक्रिय, नादब्रह्म, कुंडलिनी, नटराज, विपश्यना, गौरीशंकर, मंडल, प्रार्थना, कीर्तन एवं सूफी नृत्य ध्यान शामिल हैं — साथ ही साक्षी भाव, मौन और दैनिक जीवन में सजगता पर सूत्र।
Taking its title from Kabir's famous line about the word "love" — written with only "two and a half letters" in Hindi, yet containing more wisdom than any scholar's library — this is a collection of personal letters written by Osho (then known as Acharya Rajneesh) to individual disciples between 1968 and 1971, each addressed by name. Rather than formal discourses, these are intimate notes touching on love, surrender, silence, and inner awakening, closing with the same Kabir couplet that gives the book its title.
कबीर की उस प्रसिद्ध पंक्ति से अपना शीर्षक लेते हुए, जिसमें "प्रेम" शब्द को हिंदी में केवल "ढाई आखर" में लिखा गया बताया गया है, फिर भी वह किसी भी विद्वान के पूरे पुस्तकालय से अधिक ज्ञान ...
Taking its title from a mystic Palto couplet — "just as the river is one, many are its shores" — this discourse explores how the mind's division creates all difference, while beyond mind lies a single, unified taste of truth. Osho uses the image of many rivers merging into one ocean to illustrate how different paths (Buddha's way, Mahavira's way, Christ's way) all dissolve into the same destination, while people mistakenly cling to their particular "shore" — a scripture, a ritual, a tradition — as if it were the truth itself rather than just one of countless ways to reach it.
संत पलटू के एक रहस्यवादी दोहे से अपना शीर्षक लेते हुए—"जैसे नदी एक है, बहुतेरे हैं घाट"—यह प्रवचन बताता है कि मन का भेद ही सारे अंतर को जन्म देता है, जबकि मन के ...
