In "The Art of Living and Dying," Osho, the renowned spiritual teacher, embarks on a profound exploration of the questions that haunt our existence: What is the nature of death, and why does it inspire fear in our hearts? With his characteristic wisdom and insight, Osho addresses the myriad concerns surrounding the inevitable yet mystifying end we all face. From the existential anxiety triggered by death's certainty to the deep philosophical inquiries about life's meaning in the shadow of mortality, Osho provides illuminating guidance. He delves into the essence of acceptance amidst life-threatening illness, the complexities of navigating advice during such times, and the transformative potential of facing death with openness and courage. Through a series of poignant questions and reflections, Osho challenges readers to reconsider their perceptions of death, urging them to view it not as an end, but as a crucial part of the spiritual journey. He offers compelling arguments for celebrating death as much as life, emphasizing the cyclical nature of existence through the lens of reincarnation and the profound opportunities for growth that dying presents. Whether confronting one's own mortality or supporting a loved one through their final moments, Osho's insights serve as a beacon of clarity and compassion. "The Art of Living and Dying" is not just a book; it's a meditation on the sacred mystery of death, inviting us to embrace the full spectrum of life with acceptance and joy.

A surprisingly profound and interesting read. - Joe Rogan
Buddha says the ego is a continuity, it is not a substance – continuity like a flame, continuity like a river, continuity like the body.
