Excerpts from an Interview with Mike Wolfe KBND Radio, Bend, Oregon.
"I am destroying the whole idea of the separation, of a split between matter and mind, body and soul, materialism and spiritualism." - Osho
Osho speaks on the Tibetan mantra "Om Mani Padme Hum."
The only country in the world which has devoted all its genius to the inner exploration is Tibet. Its findings are of tremendous value. Om mani padme hum is one of the most beautiful expressions for the ultimate experience. Its meaning is "the sound of silence, the diamond in the lotus."
No philosopher has ever been able to know the truth. All the philosophers have been thinking about the truth. But thinking about the truth is an impossibility. Either you know it, or you don't.
Excerpt from an interview with Howard Sattler, 6PR Radio, Australia. "Freedom, to me, is the ultimate value. There is nothing higher than freedom." -Osho
I Love to Disturb People. In a series of excerpts from an interview with Jeff McMullen of Australia's "60 Minutes" Osho offers a series of one-liners about Gandhi, Hitler, the Pope and Mother Teresa -- and goes on from there to talk about his reputation for being controversial, contradictory, and, in the words of the interviewer, "one of the funniest people I've ever met."

What happened to love? Everybody is looking for love, but the world is full of hate. With love something very drastic has happened.

How to select a meditation technique. All the techniques that I have developed are for contemporary people. People need first cathartic meditation methods -- like OSHO Dynamic meditation - then they can move to silent methods..
What is the need of Nations? The whole earth is one. This whole earth belongs to us. On the maps people go on drawing lines, and over those there is fighting, killing and murdering. Listen to this excerpt from an OSHO TALK
Osho speaks about the understanding that we are guest here on this planet Earth and should treat the environment with respect. Existence has been so kind to invite you here.
Buddhists are trying to escape the circle of life and death. Jesus dies for our sins and tries to come back from death. Listen to this excerpt from an OSHO TALK to learn that only escaping the minds conditioning -- self-discovery - can bring freedom. And humor is important as well.
OSHO TALK: All the religions are based on God. Their morality, their commandments, their prayers, their saintliness -- everything points towards God, and you say that God is dead. Then what will happen to all these great things that are dependent on the concept of God?
