Una vita autentica, è questa la proposta esistenziale di Osho che qui affronta il tema della ribellione da diverse prospettive quotidiane, senza perdere di vista quello che da sempre è il vero destino dell'essere umano: una gioiosa comunione con l'esistenza. Nel caos sovrano che sembra ritmare la nostra epoca, potrebbe sembrare un discorso "fuori dal mondo". Di certo lo è, considerato lo stato in cui versa; infatti, Osho invita a guardare le cose con occhi più limpidi, per non tardare più l'assunzione delle proprie responsabilità, anche rispetto a quel caos.

Noi tutti siamo in viaggio, o meglio in fuga. Gli eventi ci invadono, nel bene o nel male, rendendo impossibile qualsiasi elaborazione. E nulla di tutto ciò pare acquietare il bisogno profondo di sentirsi a casa nell'esistenza; anzi, la fantasia, l'immaginazione, ma anche i viaggi veri e propri non aiutano: qualcosa in noi sa che "essere a casa" è unaltra cosa, ha un altro sapore, una vibrazione differente.

Questo non è un mondo giusto - intendo dire che non è un mondo a misura d'uomo. E tu vorresti stare in questo mondo e sentirti parte? Sarà naturale sentirsi degli alieni; ma è qualcosa che dovrebbe renderti felice."

Lo Spirito del nostro tempo sembra generare un'intima rispondenza e una predisposizione al messaggio e alla visione della vita e del mondo propri allo Zen. Infatti, mai come ora il bisogno di ritornare alla condizione originale del corpo e della mente si impone, così da essere davvero protagonisti della propria vita. Eppure, nella vastità di opere disponibili, spesso qualcosa si sente mancare: un libro da solo, infatti, non è in grado di operare quel salto di qualità, caratteristico dello Zen vero, che porta a riconoscere il proprio volto originale.
