[close] One of the most provocative and inspiring spiritual teachers of the twentieth century, Osho defies categorization - reflecting everything from the individual quest for meaning to the most urgent social and political issues facing society today. His books are not written but are transcribed from recordings of extemporaneous talks given over a period of thirty-five years. Osho has been described by the Sunday Times in London as one of the ‘1000 Makers of the 20th Century’ and by Sunday Mid-Day in India as one of the ten people—along with Gandhi, Nehru and Buddha—who have changed the destiny of India. Osho has a stated aim of helping to create the conditions for the birth of a new kind of human being, characterized as ‘Zorba the Buddha’—one whose feet are firmly on the ground, yet whose hands can touch the stars. Running like a thread through all aspects of Osho is a vision that encompasses both the timeless wisdom of the East and the highest potential of Western science and technology. Known for his revolutionary contribution to the science of inner transformation, the influence of his teachings continues to grow, reaching seekers of all ages in virtually every country of the world. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osho http://www.oshoworld.com/ http://oshofriendsinternational.com/ http://www.oshotalks.info/ http://www.oshoteachings.com/ http://www.oshoquotes.net/ http://www.oshophotos.com/
