Book Description

Back of the Book

Inner growth happens only when there is divine discontent. ‘When you are absolutely unsatisfied with things as they are, only then do you start rising higher, only then do you make an effort to pull yourself out of the mud.

Osho’s philosophy will take you to a world beyond time add beyond death, and help you create a distance between your mind and your body. It is only then that you have taken the final step of transcendence. This is the psychology of the buddhas; it is this that takes you beyond the mind; it is this that takes you beyond time.

Preface

The goal of Freudian psychoanalysis is not very great. The goal is to keep people normal. But normality is not enough. Just to be normal is not of any significance. It means the normal routine of life and your capacity to cope with it.

It does not give you meaning, it does not give you significance. It does not give you insight into the reality of things. It does not take you beyond time, beyond death. It is at the most a helpful device for those who have gone so abnormal that they have become incapable of coping with their daily life — they cannot live with people, they cannot work, they have become shattered. Psychotherapy provides them a certain togetherness — not integrity, mind you, but only a certain togetherness.

In a way, it is dangerous to their inner growth, because the inner growth happens only when there is a divine discontent. When you are absolutely unsatisfied with things as they are, only then do you go in the search, only then do you start rising higher, only then do you make efforts to pull yourself out of the mud. Jung went a little further into the unconscious. He went into the collective unconscious. This is getting more and more into muddy water and this is not going to help.

Assagioli moved to the other extreme. Seeing the failure of psychoanalysis he invented psychosynthesis. But it is rooted in the same idea. Instead of analysis he emphasizes synthesis.

The psychology of the buddhas is neither analysis nor synthesis; it is transcendence, it is going beyond the mind. It is not work within the mind; it is work that takes you outside the mind. That’s exactly the meaning of the English word ecstasy – to stand out.

When you are capable of standing out of your own mind, when you are capable of creating a distance between your mind and your being, then you have taken the first step of the psychology of the buddhas. And a miracle happens; when you are standing out of the mind all the problems of the mind disappear, because mind itself disappears; it does its grip over you.
