Osho on Buddhism

The Heart Sutra

newly released:
             The Heart Sutra

'Listen to these sutras because these are the most important sutras in the great Buddhist literature. Hence they are called The Heart Sutra; it is the very heart of the Buddhist message.
But I would like to begin from the very beginning. From this point only does Buddhism become relevant: let it be there in your heart that you are a Buddha.'

THEREFORE, O SARIPUTRA...."Come... come... and yet again come...."

The Dhammapada

The Dhammapada 

'Buddha is one of the most important masters who has ever existed on the earth - incomparable, unique. And if you can have a taste of his being, you will be infinitely benefited, blessed.'


The Dhammapada

 

Osho talks on Gautama the Buddha and his vision - in a beautiful boxed set with 12 volumes 

Buddha's whole message is devoted to the raising of our consciousness, and to enter into the Dhammapada with Osho is to merge deeply with these two masters.

The Book of Wisdom
Discourses on Atisha’s Seven Points of Mind Training

India has given great gifts to the world. Atisha is one of those great gifts. Just as India has given Bodhidharma to China, India gave Atisha to Tibet. Meditate on Atisha, listen to his advice: it is of immense value. It is not a philosophy.. it is a manual of inner transformation. It is the book that can help you grow into wisdom. Hence I call it the book of wisdom."

The Diamond Sutra

A contemporary Buddha speaks on Buddha, once again bringing these beautiful words to life and illuminating the meaning inherent in them. The Diamond Sutra is one of Gautama the Buddha’s most powerful teachings, and here Osho brings a modern-day clarity to these mysterious sutras.

'When a Buddha moves the wheel of Dharma, it takes two thousand five hundred years for it to stop completely. After each five hundred years it goes on losing momentum. So those are the five ages of the Dharma. After each five hundred years, the Dharma will be less and less, decreased and decreased and decreased, and after twenty-five centuries the wheel will stop again. It will need another Buddha to turn it for the coming twenty-five centuries.
The wheel that Buddha moved has stopped. The wheel has to be moved again. And that is going to be my and your life-work - that wheel has to be moved again. Once it starts revolving it will have again twenty-five centuries' life. Once it starts moving it goes on moving for twenty-five centuries at least.'
