Among my fav all-time readings, April 20 2004
This review is from: Autobiography of a Spiritually Incorrect Mystic (Paperback)
For anyone who seeks a fair introduction to one of the greatest minds of the twentieth century, Osho, this is the place to begin. Osho never really wrote his biography. This book is a collection of his lectures on different subjects that he addressed to over the course of time. It adheres to the values of eastern spirituality since Osho was highly influenced by the teachings of Gautama Buddha. He had a flair for simplifying the more complicated issues that human mind, body, and soul is constantly inflicted with in the modern times. I highly recommend this book for anyone who seeks insight into spiritual (particularly eastern) studies.

This review is from: Autobiography of a Spiritually Incorrect Mystic (Paperback)
This is the book I took with me on the trip to India, because I found this 'Spiritually Incorrect Mystic' so appealing that I went to visit his place! I want to know more about him and I was not disappointed, because this book is more than stories and records. Yet there are so much more to discover. Whether you are just curious how a guru was brought up, or wanting to seek inspiration from this great guru, do read and enjoy. You will smile and laugh with it.

preconceptions smashed, Mar 17 2003
I just knew he had some crazy meditation techniques was a bit of a rogue, had 93 rolls royces, accepted sex and i had a few friends who recommended him. Wow, blown away, this is one of the most beautiful books i've ever read! Osho's integrity shines through and yes he is a dangerous man because he's not concerned about beliefs but the truth. And he challenges you deeply, i was a buddhist monk for 3 years and he takes traditions apart 'Buddha wasn't a buddhist' what a one liner. Many buddhist books seem to take a mathematical approach to enlightenment, Osho is a poet. I just cried reading this book, with laughter and joy and hope, i even found myself clapping and shouting 'Yes yes yes!' Sheer delight. I'm hooked. love and peace
