Synopsis This book begins with the question: Could you please explain the work of a mystery school? And Osho answers: My beloved ones…and goes on to describe the workings of the timeless mystery schools the world over and the support they give to the seekers of truth. What is mysticism? What is fear? What is freedom? These questions and more are answered with the clarity of an enlightened mystic. From Buddha to Rinzai, from Krishnamurti to Marx, from Gandhi to Bodhidharma, Neitzsche, Jesus, Gurdjieff and Zarathustra…all become grist to Osho’s mill, bringing the reader to the point of awareness where all questions begin to disappear. My emphasis is: no more renunciation, no more self-torture, no need to create a painful, miserable life for yourself…. The new humanity has to create the right atmosphere where men and women are friends, fellow-travelers, making each other whole. The journey becomes a joy, the journey becomes a song, the journey becomes a dance… I am trying to bring a totally new religious experience into the world. And with the new religious experience there is bound to be a new world, a new humanity, new eyes to see and new hearts to feel.
