The Secret: An Introduction to the World of Love

In The Secret , Osho introduces us to the world of love, and initiates us into the ways of love. The context is the world of the Sufis – a spiritual tradition known to many through the Persian poet and mystic Rumi. Sufis talk about two kinds of love. One they call the ordinary love, lukewarm, momentary, partial. One moment it is there, another moment it is gone. It has no depth, no intensity. You call it passion, but it is not passionate. It is not such a flame which can burn you. You don't become aflame with it; it remains something under your control. You don't become possessed by it; you don't lose yourself in it. You remain in control. The other kind of love, the real love, the authentic love, the love with total intensity – one is lost in it. That world of love becomes an open secret when Osho unlocks the inner wisdom of colorful Sufi stories and parables. He illustrates many points with jokes, as he responds to the Sufi stories as well as to listeners' questions about everyday experiences – including love, education, knowledge and wisdom, doubt and trust, freedom and responsibility, sex and death.
