There once was said to be a 1969 edition:

subtitle: 120 Immortal Letters
publisher: Jivan Jagruti Kendra
pages: 227

but that seems too doubtful to put on the main page. Compare the 1969 Seeds of Revolutionary Thought. --Sugit (talk) 07:59, 27 April 2015 (UTC)


It's cited in Neeten's Osho Source Book's Bibliography page, even has its own subtitle, "120 Immortal Letters." But, heh heh, Neeten has been known to use the wiki as a source, so perhaps we have to be alert about the "independence" of such validations.

The main problem i have with this whole series / proliferation of alt-titles and translations and re-issues is that they all say letters written from 1966-69 (when they mention letters at all) but the original Krantibeej (क्रांतिबीज) from which it was translated was published in 1965. But i haven't found alternative dates for the letters.

Above written in Aug 2014. Having since looked at the whole of Neeten's mentions of Kranti Beej, it seems pretty solid that it was published in Jan 1965, if not earlier, so dates for the letters have been set accordingly, 1960-64. -- doofus-9 (talk) 21:40, 13 May 2015 (UTC)


Anyway, it is clear that with that 1969 edition is meant the first edition of this text. That does exist, was published in 1969, and it has a different title: Seeds of Revolutionary Thought.

And just for fun to leave some remaining shreds of doubt: the Lao Tzu Library Book List mentions Seeds of Revolution (JJK 1972) with 2 copies and a (JJK 1969) with 0 copies.

The next entry is Seeds of Revolutionary Thought (MB 1969). So this would only work if there was in 1969 both a MB and a JJK edition. --Sugit (talk) 18:09, 3 May 2016 (UTC)


On CD Osho books (in appendix) is The Seeds of Revolution with minititles 'HSEEDS'. Is this book anywhere? --Dhyanantar (talk)


No, the text is not available on the CD-ROM, as shown here. --Sugit (talk) 19:43, 8 January 2017 (UTC)


Text of The Seeds of Revolution really isn't on the CD. I mean name of the book The Seeds of Revolution. Maybe This is another edition of Seeds of Revolution. Because both books is listed in the Annendex on the CD:

Seeds of Revolution: My Most Loved Gospel on Jesus ........................................ SEEDS .............. DS Yes
Seeds of Revolutionary Thought .......................................................................... THOUGT .......... DX
Seeds of Wisdom .................................................................................................. SDWISD .......... MI Yes
The Seeds of Revolution........................................................................................ HSEEDS .......... MI

I tried to find it but I couldn't.--Dhyanantar (talk) 20:49, 8 January 2017 (UTC)


the first two "Seeds" are on the CD-ROM as part of Seeds of Wisdom. --Rudra (talk) 00:19, 9 January 2017 (UTC)


That's right. I am curious to know exactly about "The Seeds of Revolution" and its minititle. The name of "The Seeds of Revolution" (minititle is 'HSEEDS')is different from Seeds of Revolution (minititle is 'SEEDS').

And I would like to clarify the next related information. "Seeds of Revolution: My Most Loved Gospel on Jesus" is the working title for CD and it refers (or relate?) to the edition The Mustard Seed. As you can see from the list above the minititle of "Seeds of Revolution: My Most Loved Gospel on Jesus" is 'SEEDS'. The right title for "Seeds of Revolution: My Most Loved Gospel on Jesus", as I understood from Osho Books on CD-ROM#errata, is 'The Mustard Seed: My Most Loved Gospel on Jesus'. Is that right?
And then the correct title of 'The Seeds of Revolution' is Seeds of Revolution, as on this wiki-page. But with the minititle 'HSEEDS'. There is confusion and uncertainty of compliance minititles of Seeds of Revolution, The Seeds of Revolution. Clarify. And I don't understand where Seeds of Revolution is itself on CD?

It's hard for me to Express my Russian thoughts in English. Sorry

How to write a paragraph without merging the text with the previous paragraph? --Dhyanantar (talk) 09:51, 9 January 2017 (UTC)


To write a paragraph without merging the text with the previous paragraph: use an extra linefeed/enter. Or use colons, as you did. --Sugit (talk) 14:35, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
