The Zen koan, "The goose is out!" captures the whole absurdity of the human condition - how, throughout our lives, we remain voluntarily ignorant of our true nature. In this book, his last responses to disciples' questions before going into silence for three and a half years, Osho penetrates the prejudices and beliefs we have gathered as our protection against the truth.
