The First Principle
Osho introduces these discourses on Zen stories by explaining what the first principle is: that which cannot be said. But it can
be shown and experienced as Osho demonstrates in talking on the often bizarre, always maddeningly simple anecdotes about
interchanges between Zen masters and their disciples. He also talks on intellect and reason in the seeker's life, spiritual greed
and the real meaning of the Zen dictum to "kill" one's master. Somehow Osho takes the enigmatic quality of Zen and shows
us its pragmatic truth, without robbing it of its inherent magic, charm or humor.
