In New Man for the New Millennium, Osho tells us why it is imperative that we become new human beings as we enter the new millennium. Osho says that only a new consciousness can deliver man from his bondage. Here, he explains how this new consciousness can come only through us, from within ourselves. He shows us how to let go of the past, to go beyond ancient beliefs and to trust only in our won experiences.Osho elucidates the seven essential qualities of Homo Novus, the New Man. He takes a new look at issues that have eternally bedeviled generation: Love and relationships, marriage and family, money, power, politics, work, and morality. He examines the challenges and opportunities of education, science and technology, the generation gap, government, and the quality of life itself. For Osho, change, moving forward, and religion as a revolution is the way. And here he invites us to wake up to our enlightenment and revel and rejoice in life.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR Osho .
Osho was born in Kuchwada, Madhya Pradesh, on 11 December 1931. Rebellious and independent from childhood, he insisted on experiencing the truth for himself rather than acquiring knowledge and beliefs given by others. He attained 'enlightenment' at 21 and went on to complete his academic studies. He spent several years teaching philosophy at the University of Jabalpur. Meanwhile, he travelled throughout India delivering talks and meeting people from all walks of life. By the 1960s, Osho had begun to develop his unique dynamic meditation techniques. He felt that modern man is so burdened with the archaic traditions of the past as well as the anxieties of modern-day living that he must go through a deep cleansing process before he can hope to discover the thought-less, relaxed state of meditation. In the early 1970s, the West first began to hear of Osho. By 1974, a commune had been established around him in Pune, and the trickle of visitors from the West soon became a flood. Osho spoke of every aspect of life and on the development of human consciousness. Based on his own existential experience rather than on intellectual understanding, he distilled the essence of what is significant to the spiritual quest of contemporary man. Osho left his body on 19 January 1990. His commune in India continues to attract thousands of international visitors who come to participate in its meditation, therapy and creative programmes or to simply experience being in a 'Buddhafield'. Osho's talks have been published in more than 600 volumes and translated into over thirty languages.
