Being in Love: How to Love with Awareness and Relate Without Fear

By Osho

Book Overview

What Is Love? In this thoughtful, provocative work, Osho--one of the most revolutionary thinkers of our time--challenges us to question what we think we know about love and opens us to the possibility of a love that is natural, fulfilling, and free of possessiveness and jealousy. With his characteristic wit, humor, and understanding, Osho dares us to resist the unhealthy relationship patterns we've learned from those around us, and to rediscover the meaning of love for ourselves. "By the time you are ready to explore the world of love, you are filled with so much rubbish about love that there is not much hope for you to be able to find the authentic and discard the false." By answering the questions that so many lovers face, Osho shares new ways to love that will forever change how you relate to others, including how to: - Love without clinging - Let go of expectations, rules, and demands - Free yourself from the fear of being alone - Be fully present in your relationships - Keep your love fresh and alive - Become a life partner with whom someone could continue to grow and change - Surrender your ego so you can surrender to love Being in Love will inspire you to welcome love into your life anew and experience the joy of being truly alive by sharing it.

osho has some marvelous insights into love relationships... unusual for an "eastern mystic." he seems to understand the complexity of the issues... I have benefited immensely from his work while going through some challenging relationship issues.... his writing is simple and straightforward; easy to understand... a great book to share with a partner... will especially benefit people who are familiar with eastern meditation and mysticism

Challenging The Way of Love

This book is so wonderful that it unearthed great difficulties within my relationship. I am thankful for that, because I know that his words were true. I understood that his objective was not to teach us a philosophy or a way of life, but to return to our natural state, our unconditioned state. As always, good luck on your journey wherever that takes you.

This book must be read with an open mind!

I almost passed this book by at first, and then I read the rest of the title. The author really broke down what love is and took it to another level. His book made me realize that I have never given unconditional love. My marriage is less stressful now that I've learned, love is supportive and not judgmental. I would recommend this book to anyone in an relationship or marriage. My advice would be to read it with an open mind.

Osho has done it again!

this book has given me so much insight about love, and being in love. and letting go and how to let go when the time comes. i have about 5 of his books, they all have been read at least +3 times. i recommend this book to everyone!
