The Heart Sutra, originally a very short set of verses, was given in privacy as a message to one of Buddha's close disciples, Sariputra, specifically addressed to him. Over time the Heart Sutra became one of Buddhism's core teachings. In these 10 talks, Osho presents the powerful message of these ancient words and brings them to a modern audience - one with different minds and needs than the original audiences of Buddha more than 2,500 years ago.

What if Jesus were not a supernatural being conceived by a virgin but a real human being who had experienced the awakening of consciousness known as "enlightenment" in the East? This extraordinary line-by-line commentary on some of the best-known New Testament Gospels from Matthew and John tests the hypothesis that Jesus was a mystic, not a miracle worker of supernatural origin. Osho convincingly makes the case that the stories of Jesus' life were never meant to be a factual record of history but rather are teaching parables.

The world is ruled by very different forces than what is commonly imagined. Political leaders who parade themselves in front of us each have their own position in the public political hierarchy. Business leaders have a similar public corporate hierarchy. However, behind the curtains, there is an international and highly organized network to which many of these leaders belong.

Sri Sukta - a cluster of 16 Vedic mantras dedicated to the Divine Mother - is one of the greatest gifts to humanity given to us by the ancient sages. These awakened mantras empower us to pull the forces of abundance and nurturance toward ourselves so we can experience life’s fullness. Sri Sukta: Tantra of Inner Prosperity is the modern practitioner’s guide to these mantras.

Nirvana has become an idealized word associated with the juxtaposition of a cult rock celebrity who died before his time and a vague new age version of Eastern religion. An altered state to be hoped for but likely unattainable, reinforcing that all too familiar uneasiness associated with never being able to have what we truly desire in life.

If you are struggling with finding your calling in this copy-and-paste world, you are not alone. In I Am, Sons & Daughters calls you to stop living to the world's standard and step into the fullness and adventure that God has waiting for you, believing and living the truth that you are creative, you are holy, you are righteous, you are secure, you are called, you are confident, and you are loved.

In 1989, Francis Fukuyama famously announced the "end of history." The Berlin Wall had fallen; liberal democracy had won out. But what of illiberal democracy - the idea that popular majorities, working through the democratic process, might reject gender equality, religious freedoms, and other norms that Western democracies take for granted? Nowhere have such considerations become more relevant than in the Middle East, where the uprisings of 2011 swept the Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamist groups to power.

Instead of offering easy answers, this book asks difficult questions, leading the listener on a journey with life-altering implications. If Jesus meant what he said, how might his words affect our relationships, investments, speech, perspectives, discipleship, spiritual disciplines, and every other aspect of life? What if the only balanced Christian life involves an all-out surrender to Jesus Christ?

Panorama is the seer's prophetic gifting that releases the miraculous. It is tied into five key elements: inheritance, humility, compassion, righteousness, and faith. These keys and much more are presented to you in a spiritually sensitive way - straight from the throne room of God.

This study illustrates why the language of the Qur'an is miraculous, unique, and evidence of divine authority. The author compares the language of the Qur'an with the language of pre-Islamic poetry, the Prophet's words (hadith), and the language of the Arabs both past and present, to demonstrate that although the Qur'an was revealed in Arabic it was at the same time an Arabic which was entirely new. Original and early Muslim audiences viewed this as miraculous and responded to the Qur'an's words, sounds, rhythms, etc.

Is it really possible to love one's enemies? That's the question that sparked a fascinating and, at times, terrifying journey into the heart of the Middle East during the summer of 2008. It was a trip that began in Egypt, passed beneath the steel-and-glass high-rises of Saudi Arabia, then wound through the bullet-pocked alleyways of Beirut and dusty streets of Damascus, before ending at the cradle of the world's three major religions: Jerusalem.

Die Upanishaden entstanden vor etwa fünftausend Jahren und zählen zu den frühesten religiösen Texten und entstammen der vedischen Tradition, die die Entwicklung des Hinduismus stark beeinflusst hat. Osho, sagte, sie enthielten "einige der bedeutendsten Aussagen, die je irgendwo auf der Erde gemacht wurden", zeigt, wie sie Antworten auf Fragen bieten können, die Herz und Verstand jedes Einzelnen berühren. Er spricht über die Reise durchs Leben, über Liebe und Besitzgier, die Angst vor dem Tod und den Weg zur Erleuchtung und überträgt diese uralte Weisheit in die Sprache von heute.

Nur einmal in der Geschichte des menschlichen Bewusstseins, so Osho, sei etwas wie Zen entstanden. In "Zen: Seine Geschichte und Lehre" erklärt der bekannte Mystiker, dass Zen keine Rituale, keine Gesänge, keine Mantras, keine Schriften kennt–nur kurze, eindringliche Gleichnisse und Lehren, die es ideal für den modernen Suchenden machen.

Al-Balki explains symptoms and treatments giving advice on preventive measures and how to return the body and soul to their natural healthy state. In doing so he displays a keen understanding of the human condition and the medical nature of the human emotional state. An astonishing feat given that many of the conditions he discusses were left largely unknown and untreated for centuries before being clinically defined as such, only as relatively recently as the 20th century.

The Sutra of 42 Chapters is a scripture complied in the first century CE. Each saying comes from Buddha, but the whole work was a new anthology created especially for introducing Buddhism in a new country. That’s why it makes such a good, basic introduction to the world view of Gautam Buddha.

1) Why Apemen Never Shaved by Mike Riddle: With all the news about "Lucy's daughter" being found, you would think evolution was well defended...not so! Mike takes apart the theory and completely dismantles the Lucy findings.

Better yet, he is an awesome communicator and shows you there is no way on God's green Earth that birds could learn to fly via evolution. Witty.

If we gave 100 people $10,000 today, what results would we see one year from now? We would probably see that 80 percent would have $0 left, 16 percent would have $10,500, and four percent would have between $20,000 and $1,000,000. Why? Because, 96 percent of us have never been taught to practice the five secrets that result in natural, supernatural, and generational wealth multiplication.
