Osho uses the Tao Te Ching texts as Lao Tzu intended: to ignite the flame of individual awareness and insight. From the seven verses Osho selected to comment on, he moves deeply into his own understanding and burns through every idea we may hold about ourselves until we can see with the same crystal clear light as Lao Tzu.

In this second of a two-volume series titled, Tao: The Golden Gate, Osho draws on the ancient Taoist truths as taught by master Ko Hsuan, and brings his penetrating and unique insight in responses to a range of questions from his audience.

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.”

If you can fall in harmony with Kabir’s vision, you will be enriched beyond all your expectations. Osho says Kabir is not a philosopher, he is a poet singing his own experience.

What does the word God mean? In Osho’s terminology it means love, life, and existence. Through the beautiful songs of Kabir, Osho explores the concept of “the guest.” The guest is godliness, and the seeker must become a host to receive it. “Now wake up. Friend, now wake up!”
