In this first volume of his commentaries on The Dhammapada, Buddha’s time-honored sutras, Osho’s focus is on a very modern-day concern: the survival of man. He describes how a Western approach to life results in a denial of the soul, reducing man to a machine, whilst the Eastern way nourishes the spiritual dimension.

“You have to write your own song…” In the fourth of twelve volumes on Buddha’s teachings, Osho shows that everything is possible in your life. You can live in a functional way – or realize the tremendous potential that every individual contains.

Love yourself first. In the fifth volume of twelve on Buddha’s essential teachings, Osho says that if you don’t love yourself, you cannot love others. Love is a light that dispels the darkness of the ego and makes you a spiritual force.
