Unidentified books:


"Pelmanism - Lesson V"

This book was not named in Books I Have Loved, but few were. This one has the distinction of being read by him before his enlightenment, being signed by him (see the title page image) in Feb 1952.
Regarding its subject matter, "Concentration and Mental Control", in its time it was an influential book. The Pelman Institute, as can be seen by its list of branch institutes around the world, had a significant reach. There were in fact two branches in India, the only country so honored.
A lot of underlinings and other marks can be seen on page 3, presumably Osho's. It is not known how many "Lessons" there were in the whole "Pelmanism" series or how many Osho read and marked.
