I think its time that i share a bit about the two enlightened spiritual masters that i absolutely adore.

I must admit that writing this is helping me release some negative energy as well.

These two masters have written several books, and given discourses on the much speculated topic of spirituality.

One of them is OSHO and the other Eckhart Tolle.

Its amazing how these two authors have, with ease, explained the joy of finding your true being.

As subjective as joy,happiness and peace is, they have so effortlessly served us a delicious gourmet that immediately seems to good to be true.

OSHO

OSHO was seen as one of the most controversial and eloquent masters to have walked this earth. Enlightened at 21, OSHO was a born rebel. But most importantly, he spread the message of freedom love and sex. The very reason why people could not begin to fathom a spiritual master who could speak of such taboo without the slightest flinch.

His messages spread the need for true love. To be in connection with the heart and at the same time establishing a witness-watcher relationship within oneself. He believed in living life simply, and letting nature take its course, without the influences of the mind-made self, the ego.

He is also known to be very harsh with his comments on other religions. OSHO believed that religions brought a human away from his natural state rather than bringing him closer to the inner guru.

It is evident that OSHO is definitely way ahead of our time.

ECHKART TOLLE

Eckhart is a new age spiritual master, focusing on the usage of the Now. His books can equip the modern man to find a balance between the society and his spiritual journey.

He also dwells on the importance of the being but more so on benefitting from the Now.

The very first book that i read of his, introduced me to the term pain-body. This is definitely a intrinsic part of every human being. He discusses on ways to identify and let go of the pain-body and redeem the love for yourself.

We tend to carry aound this pain-body and either deposit the negative energy on to someone else or bury it within and intoxicate our bodies.

He also sheds some light on other masters, such as Jesus and Buddha and the real meaning behind their teachings.


Both the masters have very minute differences, as you may have realised that all masters essentially speak of letting go of the ego and finding the inner guru.

For now, i have had immense joy reading and listening to these masters as they have truly shaken up even the smallest of belief systems that i held close. And day by day i feel that the inner space is growing in size.

I hope these two masters open your eyes like they have mine.
