Osho Osho

    This spiritual leader emphasized the importance of meditation, mindfulness, love, celebration, courage, creativity, and humor—qualities he believed were suppressed by adherence to static belief systems, religious tradition, and socialization. He courted controversy with his outspoken views on human sexuality and his critique of prevailing social and religious norms. His teachings, drawing from a wide spectrum of global philosophical and mystical traditions, focused on achieving enlightenment through direct experience and active engagement with life. His influence on Western New Age thought is notable, with his popularity increasing significantly since his passing.

      The Rebel
    • 1988

      As the bishop of Crete's Greek Orthodox Church urges the local citizenry to forcibly drive him out of the villa where he is staying, Osho revives the spirit of Zorba in a series of lively talks to his disciples and to visiting journalists. Eventually Osho, like Socrates, was accused of "corrupting the youth" - and his heavy-handed deportation is documented in an eight-page colour section at the end of this volume. But in the meantime the "corruption" was recorded on audio and video tapes, and now in print. A banquet of timely topics, from politics and religion to teenagers and sex, it sparkles like the Mediterranean setting in which it happened.
