Danger: Truth at Work

Danger: Truth at Work is the first in a series titled Authentic Living and goes to the heart of our most fundamental human issues. Why can't we just live happily and be content? While we seem to have all the knowledge we need to solve our problems, we haven't. In this timely audio series, Osho explains that religious conditioning has held us back. "The religious prophets, the political leaders, the moral lawgivers - you have respected them, not even suspecting that they are the cause of your misery." Osho calls this process of spiritual renewal a "dry cleaning of the mind". The process allows us to go beyond religious and social conditioning and develop what Osho calls a real reverence for life, going beyond divisions. The talks that are published in this Authentic Living series were given by Osho in the United States as the beginning of a new phase of his work. Each chapter covers a different aspect of this conditioning and, in gentle but persuasive language, shows how to transcend it. Individual chapters include "The Nuclear Family: The Imminent Meltdown"; "Pseudo-Religion: The Stick-on Soul"; "They Say Believe, I Say Explore"; "Ecstasy Is Now: Why Wait?"; and others. - Chapter 1 Pseudo-religion — the stick-on soul - Chapter 2 I call it reverence for life - Chapter 3 Politics and the will-to-power - Chapter 4 Danger — Truth at Work - Chapter 5 Ecstasy is now — why wait? - Chapter 6 Transformation, not renunciation - Chapter 7 Nature is all there is - Chapter 8 God is not a solution but a problem - Chapter 9 I teach a religionless religion - Chapter 10 God — the nobody everybody knows - Chapter 11 Truth — not a dogma but a dance - Chapter 12 Faith is the suicide of intelligence - Chapter 13 Ecstasy is knowing that nobody is holding your hand - Chapter 14 Society crowds you out; meditation outs your crowd - Chapter 15 They say believe; I say explore Other titles in the Authentic Living series  :   -  Magic of Self Respect  -  Born with a Question Mark in Your Heart  -  The Beauty of the Human Soul  This audiobook is a selection of talks (Chapters 1-15) from an original series previously published as From Ignorance to Innocence by Osho, given to a live audience.  © ℗ 1984,2025 OSHO International Foundation
