Is it possible to truly know who we are? Do our lives have a purpose  or are we just accidental? What are we meant to contribute? What are we meant to become  to create  and to share? In The Book of Understanding  Osho  one of the most provocative thinkers of our time  challenges us to understand our world and ourselves in a new and radical way. The first step toward understanding  he says  is to question and doubt all that we have been taught to believe.  All our lives weve been handed so-called truths by countless othersbeliefs we learned to accept without reason. It is only in questioning our beliefs  assumptions  and prejudices that we can begin to uncover our own unique voice and heal the divisions within us and without.  Once we discover our authentic self  we can embrace all aspects of the human experiencefrom the earthy  pleasure-loving qualities that characterize Zorba the Greek to the watchful  silent qualities of Gautam the Buddha. We can become whole and live with integrity  able to respond with creativity and compassion to the religious  political  and cultural divides that currently plague our society.  In this groundbreaking work  Osho identifies  loosens  and ultimately helps to untie the knots of fear and misunderstanding that restrict usleaving us free to discover and create our own individual path to freedom.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45666134196277,"sku":"ByrdShop_0307336948","price":33.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780307336941.jpg?v=1782420510","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-book-of-understanding-creating-your-own-path-to-freedom-9780307336941","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
