Add to basketThese discourses on Socialism were delivered by Osho in Hindi in 1970. At that time, Osho was known as Acharya Rajneesh and already had a reputation as an outstanding philosopher and orator. Even though these talks were given more than fifty years ago, they remain relevant today-for India and for the world at large-because socialist ideology still holds a strong influence on the younger generation across the globe.
This book shows how a mystic like Osho, known for his articulate and free-flowing expression when speaking about meditation and spirituality, can also seamlessly move into the realms of logic and rationality to address social issues, government policies, political ideologies, historical processes, scientific research, and even taxation. Osho's insights and reasoning on socialism as a political and economic system have a unique depth and flavor, quite unlike the long-winded dissertations of intellectuals, sociologists, and philosophers.His perspective springs from an understanding of man's inner being and the potential for evolving toward self-realization and enlightenment.
This is not an essay on politics, sociology, or philosophy. These discourses are the outpourings of a mystic who speaks from direct experience, without ideological filters or preconceived ideas. Osho is not interested in creating new theories, philosophies, or ideologies. He simply sees things as they are, and so he speaks as they are encouraging us to reflect on his words and draw our own conclusions.
OSHO, also known as Acharya Rajneesh was an Indian mystic, guru and spiritual teacher. He has travelled throughout the india during 1960s as a public speaker. His criticism on politicians and political mind made him controversial. His following has continued even after his death.
About the Translators:
VAIDEHE VADGAMA and ALVARO RUFFO DELLA SCALETTA have been devotees of Osho for many years.
Vaidehe, of Indian origin, met Osho for the first time in 1969 at his residence in Jabalpur, India, when Osho was known as Acharya Rajneesh. She was initiated into Neo-Sannyas by Osho in 1974 and given the spiritual name Ma Yoga Videh.
Alvaro met Osho in Mumbai in 1974 and was also initiated into Neo- Sannyas with the spiritual name Swami Chidananda.
In the early 1970s, both Vaidehe and Alvaro were personally invited by Osho to live in his Ashram in Pune. From that time until Osho's demise in 1990, they lived with Osho in all his Ashrams/Communes, maintaining a close personal relationship with him and receiving direct guidance regarding their spiritual growth.
Having listened to Osho's daily talks throughout all those years, they have imbibed the essence of his spoken words and are familiar with his wide range of expressions and his eclectic knowledge, which they are able to convey in their translations/transcreations from Hindi into English.
