Discover the transformative power of living in the present moment with Osho's timeless wisdom in Awareness: The Key to Living in Balance. Underlying all meditation techniques, martial arts, and even great athletic performances is a quality of being fully awake and present in the moment - a state that Osho calls awareness. By understanding and cultivating this quality, we gain the key to self-mastery in virtually every area of our lives. According to renowned spiritual teachers like Lao Tzu and Buddha, most of us move through life like sleepwalkers, never truly present, alert to our surroundings, or aware of our own motivations. Yet, we have all experienced fleeting moments of profound awareness in extraordinary circumstances, such as narrowly avoiding an accident or being present at the birth or death of a loved one. In Awareness, Osho teaches us how to live with greater mindfulness, love, and consciousness in our daily lives. He challenges readers to examine and break free from conditioned beliefs and prejudices that limit their capacity for rich, joyful living. Osho, described by the Sunday Times of London as one of the "1000 Makers of the 20th Century" and by Sunday Mid-Day (India) as one of the ten people who have changed India's destiny, continues to inspire seekers worldwide with his transformative teachings on meditation, mindfulness, and personal growth.

Awareness

In this lyrical, exuberant tale, acclaimed Turkish author Elif Shafak, author of The Island of Missing Trees (a Reese's Book Club Pick), incarnates Rumi's timeless message of love Ella Rubenstein is forty years old and unhappily married when she takes a job as a reader for a literary agent. Her first assignment is to read and report on Sweet Blasphemy, a novel written by a man named Aziz Zahara. Ella is mesmerized by Zahara's tale of Shams of Tabriz's search for Rumi and the dervish's role in transforming the successful but unhappy cleric into a committed mystic, passionate poet, and advocate of love. She is also taken with Shams's lessons, or rules, that offer insight into an ancient philosophy based on the unity of all people and religions, and the presence of love in each and every one of us. As she reads on, she realizes that Rumi's story mir­rors her own and that Zahara—like Shams—has come to set her free. The Forty Rules of Love unfolds two tantalizing parallel narratives—one contemporary and the other set in the thirteenth century, when Rumi encountered his spiritual mentor, Shams, the whirling dervish—that together explore the enduring power of Rumi's work.
