BOOK I
The Alchemy of Enlightenment
Everything that you have done before you became enlightened, everything that you have been before you became aware of your tremendous beauty, of your eternal life, will take a different meaning after your enlightenment.
To you and to those who are close to you, the enlightenment will make such a great difference.
It is the enlightenment that changes the meaning of all his experiences, gives them a new color, a new light, a new luminosity. The same incidents start having a totally new meaning.
It is the alchemy of enlightenment that everything has become pure gold, that small and meaningless things have taken wings and have become great.
REVIEW
Osho is one of the most original minds in this second half of the twentieth century. Reading him is sheer pleasure. Osho is undoubtedly a master o words and knows how to use them…He should be read. Many passages from his books are quotable, I wish I had written them myself.

BOOK II
Secret of Disciplehood
So as far as I am concerned, to be persecuted from one country to another country, from one land to another land, from one mob to another mob, is just a game. Knowing perfectly well, so absolutely certain, that the truth is with me, it does not matter.
Even if the whole is against me it makes no difference.
It he joyful and playful-from my side. And to be crucified for the sake of truth, for the sake of the future, for the sake of the evolution of human consciousness, is the only way one can conceive a beautiful death.
