His thousands of talks cover everything from the individual quest for meaning to the most urgent social and political issues facing society today.<\/p>\n<p>Osho\u2019s books are not written but are transcribed from audio and video recordings of his extemporaneous talks to international audiences. As he puts it, \u201cSo remember: whatever I am saying is not just for you&#8230; I am talking also for the future generations.\u201d Osho has been described by the Sunday Times in London as one of the \u201c1000 Makers of the 20th Century\u201d and by American author Tom Robbins as \u201cthe most dangerous man since Jesus Christ.\u201d Sunday Mid-Day (India) has selected Osho as one of ten people \u2013 along with Gandhi, Nehru and Buddha \u2013 who have changed the destiny of India. About his own work Osho has said that he is helping to create the conditions for the birth of a new kind of human being. He often characterizes this new human being as \u201cZorba the Buddha\u201d \u2013 capable both of enjoying the earthy pleasures of a Zorba the Greek and the silent serenity of a Gautama the Buddha. Running like a thread through all aspects of Osho\u2019s talks and meditations is a vision that encompasses both the timeless wisdom of all ages past and the highest potential of today\u2019s (and tomorrow\u2019s) science and technology.<\/p>\n<p>Osho is known for his revolutionary contribution to the science of inner transformation, with an approach to meditation that acknowledges the accelerated pace of contemporary life. His unique OSHO Active Meditations are designed to first release the accumulated stresses of body and mind, so that it is then easier to take an experience of stillness and thought-free relaxation into daily life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OSHO<br \/>\nNever Born \u2013 Never Died<br \/>\nOnly visited this planet Earth between December 11, 1931 and January 19, 1990.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-747","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/oshofrance.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/747","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/oshofrance.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/oshofrance.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oshofrance.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oshofrance.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=747"}],"version-history":[{"count":49,"href":"https:\/\/oshofrance.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/747\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4022,"href":"https:\/\/oshofrance.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/747\/revisions\/4022"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/oshofrance.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=747"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
