YAA-HOO! The Mystic Rose

At his iconoclastic best and in the presence of journalists from the German magazine, Bunte, Osho overturns the apple-cart of decorum, making fun of the Nazi regime under Hitler and recounting some of his most outrageous jokes. Osho also creates one of his most powerful meditations, the Mystic Rose Meditation. This question-and-answer series is an existential illustration of a contemporary Zen master at work. An additional section of inspiring photographs and touchingly intimate interviews make this lovingly designed book quite simply irresistible.

Page VII (see page-scan below):

Known as the Mantra salute, "Yaa-Hoo!" is the new greeting between sannyasins all over the world.

Bhagwan has said, "The significance of this Mantra Salute is the raising of the hands to the stars, indicating the longing for higher consciousness. Shouting the mantra 'Yaa-Hoo!' is also a very healthy thing. It has very good vibrations. You can do it when you wake up in the morning, in the bathroom, anywhere..."
