Gita Darshan: Discourses on the Bhagavad Gita by Osho (Volume 1): Adhyaya 1 – Yoga of Sorrow (Vishad Yoga), Adhyaya 2 – Yoga of Knowledge (Samkhya Yoga)

Description

Osho’s talks on the Bhagavad Gita offer a fresh perspective on the extraordinary dialogues between Krishna and Arjuna.

They reveal an unknown aspect of Krishna’s multifaceted personality. Probably nobody before Osho has understood Krishna’s extraordinary insights so deeply. Considered a divine incarnation, Krishna is a complete avatar, yet until now no one had brought to light his genius as a psychologist.

Osho, a twentieth-century enlightened master, translates ancient wisdom into modern language, making it more easily understandable to the contemporary seeker-just like Arjuna was thousands of years ago.

“According to me, I would call Krishna ‘the father of psychology.’ He is the first individual to have understood the wavering mind-the mind in conflict. He has seen the mind full of sorrow, the willpower fragmented-and has tried to bring integrity, unity, and wholeness to it. He is the first individual to introduce psychoanalysis and explore the human mind.”
