OVERVIEW OF OSHO’S BOOKS ABOUT LOVE

• Being in Love. How to love with awareness and to relate without fear
  “You have to remember that freedom is the highest value and if love is not giving you freedom then it is not love. Freedom is a criterion: anything that gives you freedom is right, and anything that destroys your freedom is wrong.” Osho
• Falling in Love with Darkness. Overcoming the fear of Darkness, and Discovering its Qualities of Rest, Relaxation and Profound Peace
  “All the important mysteries of life are hidden in darkness.” Osho “When darkness surrounds you, become absorbed in it, become one with it. And you will find that darkness offers you something that light can never give you.” Osho  
• Flowers of Love. A Book of Letters
  “I received your letter. How lovingly you insist on my writing something, and here am I, drowned in a deep silence! I speak, I work, but I am steeped in emptiness within. There, there is no movement. Thus I seem to be living two lives at one time. What a drama! But perhaps  all of life is a drama and becoming aware of this opens the door to a unique freedom…” Osho
• Life Love Laughter. Celebrating your existence
  “Love can exist in two dimensions: either as horizontal or as vertical. We are acquainted with the love which is horizontal. That is also the dimension of time; the vertical is the dimension of eternity.” Osho
• In Love with Life, Reflections of Friedrich Nietzsche’s ‘Also Sprach Zarathustra”
  “If we choose to be conscious, all unconsciousness and all darkness can disappear. It is our choice that we are living in the dark valleys. If we decide to live on the sunlit peaks, nobody can prevent us because that is also our potential.” Osho
• Love Letters to Life, 150 Life-transforming Letters by Osho
  “Be a little more poetic. Write beautiful love letters to life. That’s what meditation is all about.” Osho
• Speak to Us of Love, Reflections on Kahlil Gibran’s ‘The Prophet’
  “I would like to say to you that the mystics will not come to your marketplaces, you will have to go to the mystics. Because in the marketplace they will not be understood. What kind of commodity have they brought? Even the flute player can convince people that he has brought something, he has brought some entertainment – a beautiful song. But what is the mystic going to show? His hands are empty, but his soul is full.” Osho
• The Man who loved Seagulls. Essential lessons from the World’s greatest Wisdom traditions
  Osho—himself a master storyteller—interprets the stories in this collection and applies them to the concerns of modern day life. The valuable lessons they impart are both timely and universal.
• The Path of Love. On the Songs of Kabir. Understanding that Nothing is Perfect in Life
  “That is the agony of man – and the glory too. No other animal is in search, all other animals are contented as they are. The dog is a dog, and he is not trying to become anything else, there is no becoming. The dog is perfectly satisfied; he’s at ease. There is no pilgrimage, he is not going anywhere, there is no future. And so it is the case with every other animal.” Osho
• The Power of Love
  “Between life and death the most important thing that can happen to a man or to a woman is love. And love has many manifestations: meditation is one of the manifestations of love.” Osho
• Work is Love made Visible. Translating an enlightened Vision into Action
  “One thing we need to keep in mind and understand is that if some work is big, significant, and someone is interested in doing it, then that person should already have some inner qualities. Only then can he move the work forward; otherwise not”.
• Books I have Loved. Osho talks on more than 150 books he has loved
  To me a book is not just a book, it is a love affair. I have loved reading from my very childhood.
