Tantra: The Supreme Understanding Paperback – September 1, 2009

Osho talks to the heart and brings many lights to the presence of being and consciousness. A very great book indeed.

I have been an Osho observer for almost 2 decades & I love it that they are printing more & more of his works now. I say observer because that's how I feel you need to approach his works. At times he may seem contradictory but as you stand back & look within your own mind & heart you will feel what he is trying to share with humanity. He has a way of digging out conflicted belief systems & then handing you back a clean slate to create with in your own life. He does this in his own style, a bit of philosophy, a bit of science, a bit of religion & a bit of common sense only the common sense he offers is more like simple sense as the common sense now a days is mighty convoluted. He is another pearl on the great path of discovery.

Osho provides an honest pointing for all of us seeking ton return to the truth.. Take what you feel will help and leave what you feel you don’t agree or need.

This is a great book. Osho explains the letter from Tilopa to Naropa part by part, and he managed to write a whole book about it! He might seem a bit redundant on information, which some times is good as you get reminded of information, and some others just seems repetitive. Osho sometimes is quite arrogant, but that is just the way he is. And this books definitely contains some good pearls of wisdom. What I suggest is for you to take the time to immerge yourself into the book, it would be great if you could do it when you have a week off from work when you can do just as it tells you... "do naught with the body, but relax". It helped me heal my insomnia and my sleep schedule became naturally regular from 4AM to 9PM, all full of energy! before hand I had to "naught but relax" in between reading around this book, a book on antioxidants(the antioxidant miracle), and a book on yoga (how yoga works). Then one day I slept til 11PM on a late night yoga class request, and messed up my sleep schedule again for weeks to come, hence I thought... I need more tantra!! It also gives you a certain natural rush of endorphines while you're hands-on it, as tantra is living wholeheartedly in a state of orgasmic joyfulness. Overall good book! enjoy the ride!

Do not Google Osho. Simply read his book. I don't care if he became materialistic at the end. No one could write a book like this without being enlightened. If you are looking for a deeper reality of expansion, this is your opportunity to read. I've turned several friends onto him, and they all agreed with me. Give it a try. It will change your life about the way you send thoughts out into the world and onto others.

I read the whole book - then decided it will have to be read again. So much of it is very deep and involved. It is very different than many of us have been taught in the West. I would definitely recommend it to those wanting to broaden their understanding of well..everything. Osho is very entertaining and thoughtful in his observations. I am going to do some more research and read the other books he has written.

This book unlocked for me a sense of how to "be" in the world. This book brings you to the realization through the deconstruction of a poem by Tilopa, an ancient Tantric practitioner, that there is nothing to seek- there is only something to realize and allow, and that is your true divine nature. This book is all about understanding that you as you are right now, are totally and completely whole and ready for intense and profound living. The struggle is not with "finding out" how to do this, rather, it is understanding how to drop all of the illusions that stand in the way of you understanding this birthright. This book was so freeing, I felt incredibly lighter when I finished it. Osho is the master at getting to the point of seemingly complicated spiritual matters with the compassion of an old friend. I have read hundreds, literally, of spiritual books, psychological books and I can say that this is the most important book I've read to date. His words truly liberated me!

I gave this book away in new years to someone, she said I want to rebuy it for your library. I asked her to write a note for whoever reads it again, exactly one year later I gave it to someone else, with the message inside, very magical someone gives you a book with a message a stranger wrote for you one year before. Sooo I bought it a third time lol
