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& apos; t we just live happily and be content? While we seem to have all the knowledge we need to solve our problems, we haven& apos; 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.
