This book is a rare and unique collection of letters personally written by Osho to participants from his early meditation events. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThese are not letters to people and their personalities, these are letters to our souls. Osho addresses essential issues and concerns that arise on the path of meditation and self-discovery. The letters are encouragements to continue the process of meditation, and address subjects like Self-Acceptance, Wisdom, Consciousness, The Quest for Life, A Life of Freedom, Earth Is Our Home, Dropping Fear!, Dealing with Anger, Rebellion, and many more in a direct and penetratingly personal way. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOsho explains this about the value of writing letters: \u003cbr\u003e\"If I write anything, I write letters, because a letter is as good as something that is spoken. It is addressed. I have not written anything except letters, because to me they are a manner of speaking. The other is always there before me when I write a letter.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe OSHO works consist almost exclusively of the spoken word, addressed directly to individual people or larger audiences. These talks were recorded and then transcribed and published as books. This book represents one of the rare exceptions in the collected works of Osho, in which his written personal letters are published. Each one of these letters is like an condensed Osho Talk in haiku form. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHe would meet with these correspondents time and again at his meditation camps or while staying in their homes. This volume is a selection of his replies to their letters, queries, and calls for help. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHis words are intimate, incisive, poetic, playful, and loving. His encouragement to his correspondents to keep going on their chosen path of meditation and awareness while living, loving and working in the ordinary world -- to keep their flame of commitment burning brightly when he is not physically present -- can inspire whomever opens this book.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOsho\u003c\/b\u003e is a contemporary mystic whose life and teachings have influenced millions of people of all ages, and from all walks of life.
