Bhavna Ke Bhojpatron Par Osho (भावना के भोजपत्रों पर ओशो)
- 'भावना के भोजपत्रों पर ओशो' पत्रावली शिल्प में गढ़ा एक उपनिषद है कहने को तो ये एक पुत्र के मां के नाम लिखे पत्र हैं परंतु इनमें कृष्ण-अर्जुन संवाद की सुंगध है और जनक-अष्टावक्र वार्तालाप की सारगर्भिता है। आप इन पत्रों को पढ़ेंगे तो कभी अपने हृदय मंदिर से निकाल नहीं पायेंगे।
- इन पत्रों के केंद्र में एक दिव्यता है, एक साधना है और एक सिद्धि है। मां आनंदमयी के रूप में ओशो को ऐसी प्रेरणा मिली थी जिसने पूरे जगत को आलोकित कर दिया। ओशो की लेखनी इन पत्रों में व्यक्तित्व और कृतित्व की उस पराकाष्ठा को छू जाती है।
- जो बिरले ही देखने को मिलती है। भावनाओं की इस अखंडित और अक्षत श्रृंखला में व्यक्ति को अपने भीतर लुप्त संभावनाओं की आहट सुनाई देगी।
- notes
- This book is foremost a collection of Osho's letters to Ma Anandmayee, written during the early 60s. Vikal Gautam, the editor of this collection, is seen talking with her, date unknown. The first quarter of the book is an interview of her taken by him.
- Many of these letters have been published previously in Krantibeej (क्रांतिबीज), in edited and/or trimmed form, but there is much never-previously published material in this book. The 2002 Diamond edition illustrated below appears to be the only edition.
- The unusual, significant word in the book's title is "Bhojpatron", meaning literally a feast of letters, but not a word that would normally be used in any context, since it is the plural form of a word "bhojpatra" that normally would not be pluralized. Bhojpatra is the Hindi name for the Himalayan birch, betula utilis, whose bark is used for, among other things, writing letters.
- time period of Osho's original talks/writings
- 1960-1964 : timeline
- number of discourses/chapters
- interview with Ma Anandmayee + 167 letters (see table of contents)
