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.

The Bauls are wandering mystics who sing and ecstatically dance their love and gratitude to their God. Osho explains that this essential man lives within us all, already dancing, singing, blissful for no reason.

Love is the divine melody, says Kabir. Osho says this existence is love energy, and the way to experience it is by flowing with existence, becoming one with it, by realizing that you are a unique part of this existence.

Osho addresses how man is born complete, a rainbow, the whole spectrum, but through external influences becomes fragmented. Life is a search to regain this “oneness.”
