More about the book

An extraordinary book written under extraordinary circumstances. Osho, the enlightened master who has over six hundred books to his name, speaks not in his usual lecture hall to thousands of seekers but in an intimate and eccentric setting to only four disciples. He tells stories and gives poetic and profound descriptions of books that had helped him '...when nothing else was shining in the darkness.' Osho talks about one hundred and sixty-eight books in all, from the great seers of the Far East and Indian mystics, to Nietzsche and Western philosophers and novelists. Here is a whole rainbow of the world's literary genius, woven together with wonderfully humorous personal comments and swings of the zen stick from Osho to his notetakers.
