Don't Have Wrong Views

My Book on Tai Chi Imagery
All views are wrong. Life should be lived without views, life should be lived in immediate contact with reality. But if it is not possible, then at least don't have wrong views. What are wrong views? Views which are rooted in prejudice, hate, anger, greed, ambition, violence.

If you cannot do something beautiful in the world, at least don't do something ugly. The highest possibility is to live without any views, to just live, just be. The second best is to at least drop the negative part and follow the positive. And slowly, slowly, you will see that if you can drop the negative, the positive can also be dropped. In fact the negative is more difficult to drop than the positive.

As well as much more extensive commentaries on the proverbs than are quoted in the main Mind Training site, this also contains answers to many key questions on the teachings asked by Osho's disciples.
This is a commentary on a set of 112 wonderful tantric meditation techniques supposedly given by Shiva to his consort, Parvati, first translated in Paul Reps' pioneering 'Zen Flesh, Zen Bones'. It was formerly published as 5 volumes, and is very good value at this price.
New insights on the teachings and life of Jesus.
Probably the most perceptive and impartial account of the life and teachings of Osho (formerly Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh), by a psychologist with NIMH who spent a good deal of time around him both in Poona and in Oregon, and who got close enough to understand Osho's appeal without being so close that projections (positive or negative) overwhelm the book.
