About this series · summary by Osho Live
"Ecstasy - The Forgotten Language" delves into the profound realm of human spirituality, exploring the innate capacity for joy and transcendence that has been overshadowed by modern life's complexities. In this discourse series, Osho articulates ecstasy not merely as a fleeting emotion but as a profound state of being accessible through a deep inner transformation. He unravels the conditioning that obstructs this natural state, encouraging a return to authenticity and spontaneity. Osho emphasizes the importance of shedding societal, religious, and psychological constructs that bind individuals to a life of mediocrity and suffering. Throughout the series, Osho presents ecstasy as a forgotten but inherent language, a communication of the soul with existence itself. His perspective encourages embracing meditation and mindfulness, understanding both as pathways to reunite with one's true self. With his characteristic incisiveness and wit, Osho challenges conventional beliefs, urging his audience to rediscover the vibrant tapestry of life through conscious living. He paints ecstasy as the antidote to existential malaise, inviting seekers to embark on a transformative journey toward wholeness, where love and life are unconditioned by fear and societal expectations. Through this series, Osho illuminates a path to reclaiming the joy and vitality of life by living in harmony with one's intrinsic nature.
