Publisher's summary

Moving beyond the usual interpretations of this classic Chinese text - that of using it as an indicator of what to do next or attempting to predict the future - Osho is using the Tao Te Ching as Lao Tzu intended: to ignite the flame of individual awareness and insight. His commentaries on these seven verses burn through every idea we may hold about ourselves until we can see with the same crystal-clear light as Lao Tzu.

Tao, like Osho, is the way of wholeness: not dividing or denying anything, simply remaining choiceless and aware. You will find yourself listening to this series as if it were a waterfall; as you listen, you will come to understand the emptiness that puts us in touch with the eternal and makes bliss and ecstasy possible.

Osho is a master

I started reading and listening to Osho a few years ago. I will never get tired of his voice, his jokes or any of his words. I finished this one in 3 days. Could not stop.

must-hear for every human on earth

OSHO is a pleasure to listen to and ultra inspiring. yes he has his way of speaking but you get used to it. it's a live recording so you hear birds, and also traffic or a train in the background. but I like that. This is food for the soul!!!!

Life exists through the tension of the opposites

Inspiring and beautiful discourses given by Osho on the classic verses (sutras) of the Tao Te Ching.

Creepy Guru

The subtle way to love happiness and truth begins awful and falls down from there in going forward. The author/narrator is apparently dead, so in a way I have found happiness knowing this.

Babbling

This is just a guy babbling about different religions.
This just muddied the Tao. That being said.
Osho is an interesting individual.
