Through an assortment of Zen stories and responses to questions, Osho uses humor to hammer on the idea that the self is all that there is. “A sudden change, a sudden clash of thunder, a discontinuity” and the bondage of the mind is broken.

I Am That is Osho’s commentary on the 5000-year-old Sanskrit sutra, the Isa Upanishad. This is the smallest of the one hundred and eight Upanishads, however, Osho explains how in this small verse all the Upanishads are contained.

In The Hidden Harmony, Osho introduces Heraclitus, a Greek philosopher who was thought of as eccentric, using outlandish statements to put across his message. His audience found him difficult to understand ‒ he was known as “the Riddler” and “the Obscure,” but Osho describes Heraclitus as a rare flowering; a highly penetrating soul.
