Cartea despre sex

by Osho

Cartea ne oferă o perspectivă fascinantă asupra unor probleme legate de sex, precum ejacularea precoce, gelozia, rolul intimităţii şi diferenţele care există între bărbaţi şi femei. Din ea rezultă că sexul reprezintă un dar fundamental pe care omul îl primeşte de la natură. Cartea ne învaţă că orgasmul ne oferă un crâmpei din transcendenţă, o clipă în care uităm de timp şi de minte, devenind conştiinţă pură. Acesta este modul în care biologicul ne orientează către conştiinţă, pentru a ne cunoaşte astfel mai bine pe noi înşine.

About the author

Rajneesh (born Chandra Mohan Jain, 11 December 1931 – 19 January 1990) and latter rebranded as Osho was leader of the Rajneesh movement. During his lifetime he was viewed as a controversial new religious movement leader and mystic.

In the 1960s he traveled throughout India as a public speaker and was a vocal critic of socialism, Mahatma Gandhi, and Hindu religious orthodoxy.

Rajneesh emphasized the importance of meditation, mindfulness, love, celebration, courage, creativity and humor—qualities that he viewed as being suppressed by adherence to static belief systems, religious tradition and socialization.

In advocating a more open attitude to human sexuality he caused controversy in India during the late 1960s and became known as "the sex guru".

In 1970, Rajneesh spent time in Mumbai initiating followers known as "neo-sannyasins". During this period he expanded his spiritual teachings and commented extensively in discourses on the writings of religious traditions, mystics, and philosophers from around the world. In 1974 Rajneesh relocated to Pune, where an ashram was established and a variety of therapies, incorporating methods first developed by the Human Potential Movement, were offered to a growing Western following. By the late 1970s, the tension between the ruling Janata Party government of Morarji Desai and the movement led to a curbing of the ashram's development and a back taxes claim estimated at $5 million.

In 1981, the Rajneesh movement's efforts refocused on activities in the United States and Rajneesh relocated to a facility known as Rajneeshpuram in Wasco County, Oregon. Almost immediately the movement ran into conflict with county residents and the state government, and a succession of legal battles concerning the ashram's construction and continued development curtailed its success.

In 1985, in the wake of a series of serious crimes by his followers, including a mass food poisoning attack with Salmonella bacteria and an aborted assassination plot to murder U.S. Attorney Charles H. Turner, Rajneesh alleged that his personal secretary Ma Anand Sheela and her close supporters had been responsible. He was later deported from the United States in accordance with an Alford plea bargain.[

After his deportation, 21 countries denied him entry. He ultimately returned to India and a revived Pune ashram, where he died in 1990. Rajneesh's ashram, now known as OSHO International Meditation Resort and all associated intellectual property, is managed by the Zurich registered Osho International Foundation (formerly Rajneesh International Foundation). Rajneesh's teachings have had a notable impact on Western New Age thought, and their popularity has increased markedly since his death.

3 stele jumatate --- O carte care te invata sa redevi uman, sa uiti de prejudecati si sa te bucuri de viata in sine.
Cartea nu are nimic pervers in ea, ofera o noua vizune a sexului mult mai sanatoasa, as zice eu.. Insa cred ca e putin lungită... Merita citita

Cartea aceasta am devorat-o! :)
Fiind o transcriere a discursurilor lui Osho mi-a fost ușor să o citesc relativ repede. Glumele și micile povești ce sunt inserate pe alocuri sunt delicioase și foarte amuzante.
Cartea mi-a plăcut foarte mult și a fost fain să-mi reamintesc lucruri de care știam și cu care rezonez, dar și să primesc indicații către direcții ce le consider sănătoase.

Deși titlul ar sugera că această carte este doar despre sex, am descoperit că se pune accentul pe mult mai multe subiecte legate de viața umană, de ceea ce înseamnă iubirea și cum e aceasta diferită de ego, de religiile lumii, etc. Cartea lui Osho îți poate deschide orizonturile și te poate face să te gândești la subiectele cărora cel mai probabil nu le-ai acordat atenție.

[Iuliana Stăniloiu Apafi · Rating 5 out of 5]

Cartea are ca baza principiul eliberării,pericolele la care "te expui" în momentul in care începi să reprimi.
O abordare interesantă,o viziune nouă.
Pentru cei care ii înțeleg filosofia de viață a lui Osho este o carte bună.
