Central to Osho′s vision of the New Man is what he calls "the rebellious spirit." These talks offer a glimpse into what he means by this way of life, and how he is working with people to bring it about. These talks are the very expression of the rebellious spirit – vibrant, urgent and courageous.

Step by step, Osho explains what he calls “the central teaching of Patanjali” – a path of eight steps that leads finally to transformation. Osho describes the significance and meaning of each of Patanjali's steps of self-exploration.

Osho comments in depth on the framework of Patanjali’s system of Yoga. In an exploration that goes deeper than either science or religion, he opens a window into the mystery of life.

Osho examines the mind, desire, the ego, real love, and how meditation leads to understanding life and death. This is the seventh of ten volumes of commentary on Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, each clarifying a different aspect of Yoga.
