THE BUDDHA SAID....
Written by: OSHO
A great introduction & translation to the Life & Teachings of The Buddha.
More after the WAVE....
Many people really don't know much about The Buddha besides seeing a fat dude's statue, smiling like the Kool-Aid man in Chinese restaurants.
In actuality The Buddha was a skinny Indian prince named Guatama who renounced ALL his material treasures in search of the "SELF". When his philosophies spread out to the other Eastern countries, they changed his Image to look more Chinese. The reason they made him look fat is because OBESITY represented ABUNDANCE & PROSPERITY (which is what he brought to the spirit) everywhere he taught.
The most interesting thing about this Buddha book is the author......"OSHO"!
OSHO was raised amongst Hindus, Muslims, Buddhists, & Jainists just to name a few. He was considered a rebel yogi & an enemy of the state in more than one country.
His main goal was AWARENESS in ONENESS!
He has written well over 30 books based on ALL topics from LOVE to MEDITATION; from SCIENCE to SPIRITUALITY.
So his take on the Buddha's teachings was brought to a whole other level, but written in a way that's very easy to digest for the enlightened & intellectual as well as for the blind & ignorant.
