Description
Discovering your inner beauty, this book is a pilgrimage in search of that indefinable something that all of us, at some time or other in our lives, feel is missing -what Osho describes as our "hidden splendor". "You go on missing something -something that you had known but you have forgotten, a faded memory, a lost remembrance and the gap is not only a gap, it is a wound. It hurts, because you had brought something with your birth into the world and you have lost it somewhere and it seems impossible to find it in this crowded universe. But unless it happens, your life has been in vain, a misery, a suffering, a futile longing, a meaningless desire, a thirst that you know cannot be quenched" - Osho.

Description
Rediscovering Meditation, the forgotten treasure of India. "If we want mankind to become healthy, if we want the terrorism that is increasing everywhere and becoming more and more explosive and violent to end, if we want the flames of fire to turn into flowers, then there is only one way. That way is called Samadhi, enlightenment. Become natural, become ordinary, live in equanimity and do not remain unacquainted with the secret that is hidden within you. The moment you become acquainted with it, a great revolution will take place, the revolution which turns dirt into gold, which turns an ordinary man into a Buddha, which picks you up from the ground and takes you to the heights of the stars in the sky. I have moved around the world saying only this one thing and have been amazed and astonished that people are not ready to hear it. People close their doors, countries close their doors, because what will happen then to their religions, to their religious scriptures? I know only one scripture. That is you." - Osho. In response to questions from individuals and members of the press, Osho speaks on the essential and timeless path of meditation - focusing on India's ancient heritage of inquiry into transforming human consciousness, of going within ourselves rather than looking to the outer world for fulfillment and recognition. Set against the backdrop of his return to India after having been illegally deported from the United States and after a subsequent "World Tour" where he was denied entry to 21 countries, Osho uses those recent experiences to highlight his essential message for the whole of humanity - to grow in consciousness, to discover individual freedom and truth through tapping into our inner treasure of awareness.

Talks on Mabel Collins’ Light on the Path
In this book, Osho says of Light on the Path, “It is born out of those few essential words that man discovers again and again, and loses again and again. Mabel Collins says that she is not the author of the words that are collected in this booklet, that she has only seen them in the depths of meditation. She says, and rightly so, that these words are from a lost Sanskrit booklet.”
“Once you have heard the inner voice there is no more going astray in life…. The one who travels and the one who guides are one and the same.”
—OSHO
Osho is an Indian mystic and philosopher. He has spoken on major spiritual traditions including Jainism, Hinduism, Hassidism, Tantrism, Christianity, Buddhism, on a variety of Eastern and Western mystics and on sacred scriptures such as the Upanishads.

Description
Talks on the enlightened woman mystic, Daya. The last morning star symbolizes all that is ephemeral in the world. Talking on the playful and provocative poetry of Daya, Osho takes us on a journey from the transient, outer world to the eternal, boundless world within. This is a journey of the heart -the joyous, spontaneous and at times uncompromising way of an enlightened woman mystic. "If someone clings to the last morning star, how long will their happiness last? It is like catching a bubble of water. The bubble will burst before you can even hold it. You can try in thousands of ways to make it stay, but it will not stay and this is what we are always doing -the whole world does it. What are the things that we try to hold on to? Relationships, attachments, love, our husband or wife, sons and daughters, wealth and riches, fame, position, prestige…" - Osho

AFTERWORD BY OM SWAMI
7 Spiritual Practices to Catapult You to Happiness
Want to know the greatest benefit of being a sannyasin?
Well, you never have to stand in front of your cupboard and think: what should I wear today? There is only one color. When I was initiated into sannyasa, I thought I had become a different person forever. The reality was far from it.
The only solace: I was not the only one.
Having met numerous seekers who visit our ashram to meet my guru, Om Swami, I realized that most of them had similar woes. My failures were everyday failures for others just as much. They too were dancing to the fickle tunes of their unanchored and untamed minds.
But there was hope. Simple instructions from the ingenious mind of my master rescued me. It is his infallible wisdom that I have tried to capture in this book. I hope the lessons in these pages bring you as much peace and clarity as they brought me.

Foreword by Klaus K. Klostermaier, PhD
The Biography of A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
A remarkable journey into the deepest dimensions of the human experience, Swami in a Strange Land shows how one man with a dream can change the world.
In 1965, a seventy-year-old man—soon to be known as Prabhupada—set sail from India to America with a few books in his bag, pennies in his pockets and a message of love in his heart. He landed in New York at the peak of the revolutionary counterculture movement of the ’60s and went on to spark a global spiritual renaissance that led to the creation of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, which has changed millions of lives.
Through the depiction of Prabhupada as both an enlightened luminary and a personable, funny and conscientious individual, Swami in a Strange Land shows why cultural icons such as George Harrison and Allen Ginsberg incorporated Prabhupada’s teachings into their lives and why millions more around the globe embarked upon the path of bhakti yoga in his footsteps.
Carefully researched, skilfully crafted and extraordinarily intimate, this narrative follows Prabhupada as he rises from an anonymous monk to a world-renowned spiritual leader. Set in locations as far ranging as remote Himalayan caves and the gilded corridors of Paris’s City Hall, this book traces the rise of Eastern spirituality in the West—and in particular, the rise of yoga culture and vegetarianism and the concepts of karma and reincarnation.
Joshua M. Greene has produced films for PBS and Disney, has served as vice president for New York’s largest PR firm and was appointed director of strategic planning for the United Nations Peace Summit of Religious and Spiritual Leaders. He was also an adjunct professor at Hofstra University in New York.
“Joshua Greene reveals the true, thrilling adventure story of Bhaktivedanta Prabhupada” —Sharon Gannon, author and co-founder of Jivamukti Yoga
“Overflowing from his heart was a treasure of spiritual love that he yearned to share with the world. And miraculously, he did—within a few years Prabhupada had inspired a movement that spread across the planet. ” —Radhanath Swami, author, the Journey Home.

New Enlarged Edition, Though he is considered one of the foremost of India's philosophers, Shankara is also one of the most misunderstood. Much of the misunderstanding of Shankara's position may be due to the absence of a lucid presentation of his life and works in a comprehensive and readable form. This short monograph is an attempt to meet that need for the benefit of those who have no previous acquaintance with philosophy. Shankara was one of the most subtle of Indian philosophers and though for him intellectual dexterity was not an end in itself, the reader will find some reasoning worthy of his steel in the following pages.

Description
Private Passion and Perennial Wisdom
J. Krishnamurti was a revolutionary in the deepest sense of that word.
To the world at large, he was a renowned philosopher, orator, author and educator, whom the theosophists regarded as World Teacher – a messianic figure who would bring about world enlightenment.
But who was he in his private life?
Krishnamurti broke away from the Theosophical Society in 1929 declaring the need for complete spiritual freedom through self-awareness. To further his cause around the globe, he established the Krishnamurti Foundation. For over 60 years, he publicly shunned belief systems and presuppositions of any sort. However, evidence suggests that his life was saturated with the esoteric, with frequent episodes of hallucinations and out-of-body experiences.
Krishnamurti’s personal life is a strange and sublime story, not the least because most of it was kept secret for more than five decades. The Inner Life of Krishnamurti is the ripened fruit of author Aryel Sanat’s 30-plus years of meticulous research into the life and works of the enigmatic truth-seeker.

New enlarged edition, Sri Ramana Maharshi (1879-1950) was still in his teens when he attained enlightenment through a remarkable experience, as if undergoing death of the physical body, while remaining in full consciousness. He left home for the sacred hill of Arunachala where he taught the purest form of Advaita Vedanta (non-duality) through the simple discipline of self-inquiry. His teaching, his principal instruction to all his devotes was always to meditate on the question "Who am I"?. In this book Arthur Osborne gives an account of the life and teachings of Sri Ramana Maharshi. It has a special relevance to our age with its outlines of a religion based on the Indian scriptures which is essentially spiritual, without ceasing to be rational and ethical.The writings of Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan philosopher and former President of India, constitute one of the best possible introductions to Indian thought and culture. They are the most important body of work in the development of recent Indian and Western studies in comparative philosophy. This volume contains a representative selection of Radhakrishnan' s most significant writings in these area. It explains the aims, key concepts and major predispositions of Radhakrishnan' s thoughts and deals with his interpretation of Indian philosophy, his systematic version of Vedanta, his reinterpretation of Hindu dharma and Yoga and his consistent plea for the universal synthesis 'on the plane of spirit'.
