The Book’s Back Cover
You can’t convey sweetness to someone who has never tasted it. You may bring all your eloquence, but you can’t express something as simple as that, sweetness. The only option is to give him some candy. That is exactly what the masters have done all along. Rather of telling you what sweetness is, they give you a taste of it. They are presenting their own presence for you to experience. Osho
Bodhidharma is the 26th Patriarch in the line descended from Gautam Buddha. However, as Osho points out, he has even greater aspirations than Buddha, who refused to take any female followers since his guru was the enlightened lady, Pragyatara.
Buddhism had arrived in China six hundred years before, and now Pragyatara had dispatched Bodhidharma there to spread Buddha’s primary teaching of enlightenment. The previous messengers of Buddha’s teachings had had a significant influence on the Chinese people, but none had attained enlightenment. It was now time to pass on the taste of realization, of Awakening.
Osha meticulously dissects these three volumes of notes from Bodhiddharma’s followers, pointing out where and how the disciples’ thoughts have entered to pervert the teachings of this Buddhaan enlightened one.
Osho is a revolution, motivating millions of people throughout the world with his approach to the science of inner change. In his own words, he claims, “I am nothing.” I am not a member of any nation or political party. I am merely an individual as generated by existence.
His books and CDs are international best-sellers that cover a wide range of themes, from spiritual wisdom to highly personal issues concerning the inner journey.
