En Creencia, duda y fanatismo, Osho reflexiona en torno a una de las interrogantes vitales del ser humano y la vía para darle respuesta: la búsqueda de la verdad a través de la fe y las religiones, y cómo la necesidad de encontrarla, aunada a la falsa certeza de haber hallado la verdad, puede cegar a las personas al grado de sacar su propio centro. Osho invita a poner en crisis los credos, personales, ya sean políticos, sociales o religiosos, para superar el miedo a lo desconocido y desarrollarse plenamente como persona.

The concept of karma was first expressed in the ancient Hindu writings, known as the Vedas. Due to increased awareness and acceptance of eastern spiritual practices and philosophies worldwide these days, the concept of karma has become a widely accepted. It is a safe bet to say that almost the majority of us - regardless of culture, creed, and religion - do believe in some form of universal law that calls for us to act morally lest we will be faced with the repercussions.
