But by repressing our emotions—even in the benevolent guise of “self-control”—we only risk hurting ourselves. Osho, one of the most provocative and inspiring spiritual teachers of our time, provides here a practical and comprehensive approach to dealing with this conflict effectively.

The impact that fear, anger, and jealousy have on our lives. How emotions like guilt, insecurity, and fear are used to manipulate us. How to break out of unhealthy responses to strong emotions.
How to transform destructive emotions into creative energy. The role of society and culture on our individual emotional styles Osho’s unique insight into the human mind and heart goes far beyond conventional psychology. He teaches us to experience our emotions fully and to deal with them creatively in order to achieve a richer, fuller life. I really like Osho's simple, conversational-style delivery, though he tends to talk in circles and repeat himself a lot.
He claims that depression is, for the most part, an epidemic in the Western world because of an insatiable drive to acquire more money. The more money we have, the more empty we feel thus perpetuating the depression spiral. He goes on to say that Easterner's tend to have less and be happy with that.
In essence, when you have nothing, you can't be disappointed. I see this as a I really like Osho's simple, conversational-style delivery, though he tends to talk in circles and repeat himself a lot.

I see this as a theory and only that. I doubt there is any research to substantiate this claim. He talks about accepting your feelings rather than fighting them. For example, suppressing anger turns you into an angry person, it's no longer just a feeling. I like the idea that feelings come and go.
He refers to Buddhist teachings: emotions are a river, always moving and flowing. Wait a bad feeling out, it won't last forever. This came as a revelation to me. Even depression in itself feels different one minute to the next. Don't waste your energy trying to change it. If you can take everything Osho offers with a grain of salt, this is a very valuable self-help book.
He was known as a bit of a rebel, a bad ass, didn't have the typical spiritual or religious ideologies. A refreshing read. And if you ever get the chance, watch some of his seminars. Very entertaining.
For every good thought Osho's disciples incorporated into this book they included a load of absolute nonsense. There are things that could benefit many people but surely they must be available without the pseudo-science and outright untruths in this work. For example; 1.) Gravity is what causes aging and death, according to Osho, not those free radicals and cell degeneration, etc. Etc., oh no, it's the gravity. 2.) According to Osho, man is the only creature that kills its own kind. A patently fals For every good thought Osho's disciples incorporated into this book they included a load of absolute nonsense.

I could go on but suffice it to say, I don't recommend this book.
This is another great book by one of the best spiritual gurus. The part I loved is how at the end he explained the abc behavior model, the way he broke it down you could find the root of your behavior problem by looking at what target it, and its actually a good way to find the inner self.

ABC Model:It is based upon the principle that all behavior follows a set of consistent rules, and that methods can be developed for defining, observing, and measuring behaviors, and for designing effective interventions (Mather and Goldstein, 2001).

One of the most provocative and inspiring spiritual teachers of the twentieth century, Osho defies categorization - reflecting everything from the individual quest for meaning to the most urgent social and political issues facing society today.

Osho has been described by One of the most provocative and inspiring spiritual teachers of the twentieth century, Osho defies categorization - reflecting everything from the individual quest for meaning to the most urgent social and political issues facing society today. His books are not written but are transcribed from recordings of extemporaneous talks given over a period of thirty-five years. Osho has been described by the Sunday Times in London as one of the ‘1000 Makers of the 20th Century’ and by Sunday Mid-Day in India as one of the ten people—along with Gandhi, Nehru and Buddha—who have changed the destiny of India. Osho has a stated aim of helping to create the conditions for the birth of a new kind of human being, characterized as ‘Zorba the Buddha’—one whose feet are firmly on the ground, yet whose hands can touch the stars.
Running like a thread through all aspects of Osho is a vision that encompasses both the timeless wisdom of the East and the highest potential of Western science and technology. Known for his revolutionary contribution to the science of inner transformation, the influence of his teachings continues to grow, reaching seekers of all ages in virtually every country of the world.

He teaches us to experience our emotions fully and to deal with them creatively in order to achieve a richer, fuller life. Excerpt from: Emotional Wellness. 'Emotions cannot be permanent. That’s why they are called 'emotions'– the word comes from 'motion,'movement. They move; hence, they are ‘emotions.’ From one to another you continually change. This moment you are sad, that moment you are happy; this moment you are angry, that moment you are compassionate. This moment you are loving, another moment full of hatred; the morning was beautiful, the evening is ugly.
And this goes on. This cannot be your nature, because behind all these changes something is needed like a thread that holds all of them together. Just as in a garland you see flowers, you don’t see the thread, but the thread is what is holding all the flowers, in the same way these emotions are all flowers. Sometimes anger flowers, sometimes happiness, sometimes pain sometimes anguish. But these are all flowers, and your whole life is the garland. There must be thread; otherwise you would have fallen apart long ago.
You continue as an entity – so what is the thread, the polestar? What is permanent in you?' Excerpt from: Emotional Wellness. 'Emotions cannot be permanent.
