The Messiah Volume 2

Kahlil Gibran’s masterpiece, The Prophet, is one of the most beloved classics of our time. Published in 1923, it has been translated into more than twenty languages, and the American editions alone have sold more than nine million copies.The Prophet is a collection of poetic essays that are philosophical, spiritual, and, above all, inspirational. Gibran’s musings are divided into twenty-eight chapters covering such sprawling topics as love, marriage, children, giving, eating and drinking, work, joy and sorrow, housing, clothes, buying and selling, crime and punishment, laws, freedom, reason and passion, pain, self-knowledge, teaching, friendship, talking, time, good and evil, prayer, pleasure, beauty, religion, and death.Osho always uses writings that are well known and much loved as a platform to take flight, to express his own understanding of man and his relationship to life. When his own experience affirms the expressions of other mystics and poets, Osho endorses them, and where he feels they fall short or misrepresent the truth, he does not hesitate to say so. In all cases his love for those who have devoted their life energies to the search of truth and the expression of their findings is evident.
