Autobiography of a Spiritually Incorrect Mystic

Osho himself never wrote an autobiography. So this book, like a patchwork quilt, is sewn from disparate memories selected from his numerous speeches and arranged in chronological order. It shows the real Osho without idealizing or whitewashing him. It is as unlike other autobiographies – common to this genre – as Osho is unlike other – “canonical” – mystics. And although his life sometimes resembles an action-packed adventure novel, it is primarily an autobiography of the spirit, which projects a chronological chain of events through the prism of the spiritual.

We are presented with a fascinating story of the life that shaped Osho’s personality and views: childhood, school years, student life, experience of enlightenment, meditation camps and schools, ashrams in India and the United States, conflict with the American authorities, the last years in Pune. The book will become the key to understanding Osho’s philosophy and his teachings.
