About the Author
Osho has been described by the Sunday Times in London as one of the “1000 Makers of the 20th Century”. About his own work, Osho has said that he is helping to create the conditions for the birth of a new kind of human being.
Running like a thread through all aspects of Osho’s talks and meditations is a vision that encompasses both the timeless wisdom of all ages past and the highest potential of today’s (and tomorrow’s) science and technology.
Osho is known for his revolutionary contribution to the science of inner transformation, with an approach to meditation that acknowledges the accelerated pace of contemporary life. His unique OSHO Active Meditations are designed to first release the accumulated stresses of body and mind, so that it is then easier to take an experience of stillness and thought-free relaxation into daily life. --This text refers to an alternate kindle_edition edition.

Biography
Latest News : OSHO TIMES http://www.oshotimes.com
Osho, known for his revolutionary contribution to the science of inner transformation, continues to inspire millions of people worldwide in their search to define a new approach to individual spirituality that is self-directed and responsive to the everyday challenges of contemporary life. The Sunday Times of London named him one of the '1,000 Makers of the Twentieth Century,' and novelist Tom Robbins called him 'the most dangerous man since Jesus Christ.' For more information about Osho and his work, please visit osho.com.
Osho's teachings defy categorization, covering everything from the individual quest for meaning to the most urgent social and political issues facing individuals and society today.
His unique "Osho Active Meditations" are designed to first release the accumulated stresses of body and mind, so that it is easier to experience the thought-free and relaxed state of meditation. (Meditation -The First and Last Freedom, by Osho)
About his own work Osho has said that he is helping to create the conditions for the birth of a new kind of human being. He has often characterized this new human being as "Zorba the Buddha" -- capable both of enjoying the earthy pleasures of a Zorba the Greek and the silent serenity of a Gautam Buddha.
Running like a thread through all aspects of Osho's work is a vision that encompasses both the timeless wisdom of the East and the highest potential of Western science and technology.
Osho has been described by the Sunday Times in London as one of the "1000 Makers of the 20th Century" and by American author Tom Robbins as "the most dangerous man since Jesus Christ."

Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2017
Enlightenment is your nature” is a special book that very much inspired my own therapeutic work. Osho might also be talking about enlightenment, however, the book title is a bit misleading and the subtitle is more to the point: The book bridges the gap between the human mind and the views of psychology, therapy and meditation on the human mind. It quickly becomes clear that the conventional therapeutic methods of modern psychology, psychotherapy and psychiatry are not enough to completely understand human beings in all their depth. We need much more to achieve that: a deep understanding of meditation.
Therefore, this book is a must for everyone working with people in a therapeutic capacity – for therapists of any kind, psychotherapists, psychiatrists and other health professional but also for people who consider their own health to be more than just the sheer absence of symptoms.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must-have for any therapist worthy of the name!
Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2017
As a psychotherapist and meditation facilitator I am thrilled by this latest OSHO book. To read about enlightenment from one who actually IS, is, well, illuminating! I have never heard anyone talk of enlightenment as just being the beginning, of there being a place 'beyond enlightenment.'
Osho starts off by declaring we're all neurotic -- and explains how that has happened. He describes how the split from our natural selves can be healed not through psychology but meditation, because meditation has a far more comprehensive understanding of man as being more than a body-mind, and because meditation takes us from the periphery to our centre, from doing to simply being. He suggests psychology would do well to make meditation its foundation; talks of the role of therapy as a kind of preliminary weeding so that we can then move beyond the mind-body, the ego, the personality, to no-mind, and explains why the need for new meditation methods when over a hundred traditional technique already exist.
And btw: I think the title is terrific. If you take that as your premise -- and Osho does -- then everything he suggests about psychology and therapy is such a no-brainer! Everything falls into place!
This is a book for all therapists, of whatever hue, and others who are interested in waking up to our potential. (Maneesha James)

5.0 out of 5 stars OSHO is amazing!
Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2018
This is the first book I have ever read by Osho, and I am more than impressed. I will definitely be making my way through many more of Osho’s books. Osho has a great sense of humor that shines through the whole book.
The first thing I love about this type of book is that it doesn’t feel like I’m sitting through a lecture. This book didn’t feel like a lecture and was written in a very easy to understand way. I really enjoyed the Question and Answer portions, I found that many of the questions are ones that I, myself had. I liked that I found myself giggling at parts as well.
I read this book in increments because a lot of information was presented. I wanted to take all I could from the book so I found reading a bit here and there was the best way for me. I feel like I learned so much from this book, and yet it felt like no work at all. I recommend this book if you want to learn more about enlightenment and how it is already in us.

This book is revolutionary and is very much needed right now. It is clear and simple. Enlightenment is presented as easy and effortless, contrary to conditioning. Enlightenment is our nature. This is a guide map and clarifies everything. It points one in the right direction. This book doesn't give more information for the mind to chew on, but rather that the mind has to be dropped completely.
It shows the difference between psychoanalysis, therapy and meditation and that many of the problems come from the mind. The mind is the problem. And psychology and therapies which focus on the mind fall short of truly helping the individual. Rather they help bring the person back to a "normality" or abnormal functioning. Meditation takes one beyond the mind and transforms the individual. This book guides the way or a way. A few ways are shared; Awareness is key.
This book is helpful and is a treasure. I am very grateful to have read it. If anyone is on the path, a path, no path..enlightenment...this book helps.
