This. This. A Thousand Times This. The Very Essence of Zen

Rate this book
Through his commentaries on anecdotes about Zen masters Osho reiterates that Zen is not for the mass-mind but only for the individual who is unconcerned with the dictates of the status quo. Further, Zen is for those intelligent enough to understand the limitations of the intellect and ready to recognize the significance of intuition in the world of mysticism. Throughout, Osho keeps bringing the reader back to the moment, to "This" as the only reality.

One less star. I think that listening this series would be much more meditative than the written words of this book specially the last parts of each of the discourse wherein he takes participants in meditation .The written words are not giving that feeling as listening would definitely.

In this series, many Zen stories were mentioned and guided the communion. It is a beautiful series of discourses on Zen.
