Cartea despre barbati
Cartea este o compilatie de viziuni incisive, nu lipsite de umor, despre ce inseamna sa fii barbat in zilele noastre.
Osho arata multiplele roluri pe care barbatul trebuie sa le joace si, in plus, explica modul in care energia, de obicei canalizata spre distrugere si negativism, poate fi transformata in creativitate si evolutie oferind chiar modalitati practice pentru aceasta transformare.
Osho raspunde intrebarilor barbatilor cu intelepciune, cu anecdote sau prin tehnici de meditatie; evidentiaza adevaruri amare, vorbind fara menajamente si adesea se contrazice in afirmatii deoarece scopul lui este acela de a trezi constiintele oamenilor si nu acela de a ne face sa aderam la o noua doctrina credibila.
Cartea este o lectura extrem de placuta si folositoare, atata timp cat afirmatiile lui Osho nu sunt scoase din context si cat urmarim sa sesizam spiritul textului, fara a ne opri sa analizam excesiv litera lui.

About the author
Osho
4,291 books6,795 followersRajneesh (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.

o colecție de discursuri despre rolurile pw care le joacă un bărbat pe parcursul vieții sale: fiul, victima, sclavul, homesexualul, tatăl, iubitul, războinicul, jucătorul.
o abordare previzibilă despre religii și impactul acestora în lume, dar și asupra noastră.
deși textele sunt discursuri și răspunsuri, am găsit extrem de puține idei care se repetă, dar totuși păstrează cu un curs logic al cărții.

Osho is always a nice read. I don't agree to all of his remarks and some might just sound wrong because they are out of context, but he does make a good point. I recommend this book more to men than women, I read it out of curiosity, but most of the advices are for men, how to be responsible and own up to what they say and do.

Spirituality and male psychology. Such a good combo.
