“Freed from hell and heaven, freed from fear and greed, this small life that you have got can be turned into a paradise. This very earth is lotus paradise. And you can each moment of your life to such an extent that through enjoyment you become aware of the divine.”
In The New Freedom – the second volume in The Path of the Mystic series – Osho outlines his liberating, radical vision for a new humanity.
Through responses to a wide range of intimate and existential questions, he calls for a new kind of awakened man: a synthesis between the worldly, earthly Zorba and the Buddha of the East – an all – inclusive awareness that wholeheartedly embraces all the dimensions of man.
Osho challenges us to step beyond the false limits placed on humanity through the hand-me-down social, religious and political minds – inviting a global transformation that can begin only on the most personal, individual level.
“Man has to grow without any ideal, without any discipline. His only religion should be awareness, and wherever that awareness leads him he should go without fear, whatever the consequences. That’s the way I have lived, and I have no regret.”
Osho defies categorization, reflecting everything from tie 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 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. He is synonymous with a revolutionary contribution to the science of inner transformation and an approach to meditation which specifically addresses the accelerated pace of contemporary life. The unique Osho Active Meditations are designed to allow the release of accumulated stress in the body and mind so that it is easier to be still and experience the thought-free state of meditation.
