Both gifted humanity with so much knowledge and great works that one could fill libraries with it.
Viraja, if you are starting to read osho, I must warn you to be careful. His words arouse so much internal questioning that one can become an atheist in a hurry. You will never be the viraja we know of today!
Thank you for the clarification, Satay ji. I don't know much about Osho's writings, but Srila Prabhupada ji's - I've heard a lot about (in a good way). Since both have some controversies about them, that is why the question.
Probably I won't read Osho's works that much than some small piece here and there, because I am strongly into worship of Saguna Brahman using pujas and rituals and I'm a beginner and not at all an established aspirant and during this stage, I better be cautious about reading material that is tuned to my beliefs only. I believe your fair warning about Osho's writing will not only be useful to me at this point but also to others reading this thread.
Thanks and regards.
