Synopsis This book provides an account of Osho’s work with his disciples during the 70s and 80s. Osho conducted an intense experiment, attracting thousands of seekers from all over the globe. In working with the complex minds, polished egos, emotional, and psychic armouring of 20th century seekers, Osho created powerful meditation techniques which he used along with structures and processes from the thriving contemporary Western growth movement. This account of the author’s life and journey as a disciple, his escapades, theatrics, and adventures, provides compelling reading and fascinating insights into the playful profundity of the work of Osho.
