If you ever go to Croatia, they have a museum of "Naiive Art" which is paintings, sculptures etc made by regular people on rainy days when bored. There are some of the most amazing concepts released in striking nver-seen-before colours, and its the genuinity and rawness of the art that strikes you most.
Catcher in the Rye is really what converts non-reading boys and men into ones that are at least open to the idea in the future.
Autobiography of a Yogi not anywhere in Delhi?!
24 pages I just noticed. Good show.
I can only please one person per day. Today's not your day. Tomorrrow isn't looking good either. |

hey ppl,
i've gone through a few of Osho's discourses on LSD. There are sect of ppl who are trained to meditate under the influnce of LSD - which is one of the most difficult ways to meditate. I will give out the name of the book on this thread soon.
He says LSD can be a tool that one can use to reach the stage just before meditation. Lsd is one drug that can give u a glimps of reality (Satori) but not reality.
the center is eternal silence;
around which Life spins. |

AAAH! that 'reality' 
I dont think we need substances to meditate better, maybe some do .. i dunno. But i wud rather attain whatever there is to atain without the help of stuff.

@sorceress
Did u read the entire book ?
If so, what did u think abt the part when his teacher Yukteswar comes back and tells him abt Life after death etc.. the 'casual' world and the 'astral' world..

Now since people are onto it, here are my $.02 on it. I started reading it like one month back. Since I only get to read in the night after a days work - i barely manage to finish more than 5 pages per night so I guess it will take me one year to finish it 
Till the place I have finished, he has not talked about life and spiritualism in general as he is still searching for the teacher. Though one thing for sure - having a GREAT TEACHER always helps.
The author (Yogananda) must be Shakespeare in his last life. I have to take up dictionary now and then to understand meaning of half of the words he says. I guess, it will improve my vocab for the competetive exam i am going to take this year

This book was written a loong time ago. Ironically, a family friend owns the publishing house that first published this book. Became a best seller 
His diction si damn old skool, very Anglo if u know what i mean. Coz he was educated and stuff during that era.. its all very 'proper'
@sorceress
Well, in taht case.. OOOPS ?
