Description

The stories Osho uses as points of departure in this series are carefully chosen for their emphasis on healing the conflicts created in the human psyche by Judeo-Christian traditions ideas that divide and separate this world from the "other world," the natural from the supernatural, the heart from the mind, the material from the spiritual. As he unwraps these simple and profound Zen tales, ordinary and yet utterly mysterious, Osho offers key insights into each individual's journey toward a wholeness that embraces both the particular and the universal. "Be rooted in the body so you can have wings in the soul," he says. "Be rooted in the earth so you can spread into the sky; be rooted in the visible so you can reach into the invisible. Don't create duality and don't create any antagonism. If I am against anything, I am against antagonism. I am against being against anything; I am for the whole, for the complete circle." A Bird on the Wing is an invitation to enter the world of Zen: to move from words to silence and from theory to experience. This book will take you as far as words can go; the rest is up to you. This is the very essence of Zen.
