About This Item
>Solid square binding. Internal pages slightly tanned due to age, but unmarked. Jacket has light shelfwear to edges. a damp stain to the jacket and cloth cover that is only visible when jacket is removed. Cosmetic only, does not extend to interiors. 547 pages. 6.75" X 8.75" X 1.75" Talks given to the Rajneesh International University of Mystacism March 26, 1987-April 7 1987. Lecture series re-examining Nietzsche's "Thus Spoke Zarathrustra" as Nietzsche's attempt to gain enlightment while unable to find a living tutor, thus focusing on a historical figure to guide that quest. In these talks on Friedrich Nietzshe's Thus Spake Zarathustra, the author covers where Nietzsche's vision came close to the truth and where it fell short. The author says that had Nietzsche been born in India and exposed to the mystical traditions of the East he could have become enlightened. Zarathustra brings a total revolution in the concept of God and religion. Now religion is no longer a worship or a belief; now religion becomes the greatest creative act of man. Now religion is not what enslaves man, imprisons his spirit. In Zarathustra's hands religion becomes the art of shattering all the chains, destroying all the hindrances, so that human consciousness can become divine consciousness. Includes a bibliography of Rajneesh's other works, including foreign language editions. List of Rajneesh meditation centers, ashrams, and communes in back, with addresses. Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh also wrote as Acharya Rajneesh and as Osho
