To use this PDF effectively, follow this three-step method:
Q: Is Es Dhammo Sanantano the same as The Dhammapada? A: Indirectly, yes. The Dhammapada is the collection of Buddha's verses. Es Dhammo Sanantano is Osho’s commentary on select verses from that collection. Think of it as a lecture series on the source text. Osho Es Dhammo Sanantano.pdf
Q: Is the PDF available in Hindi? A: Yes. Osho spoke in Hindi primarily, and many of his Hindi discourses have been translated. The Hindi version is often titled Es Dhammo Sanantano (Same title, Devanagari script). The Hindi version is even more raw and visceral than the English translation.
Q: I have the PDF, but the pages are out of order. A: This is common with scanned community copies. Look for the "Discourse number" at the top of each chapter. The talks were given sequentially. Discourse #1 is the foundation; do not skip to Discourse #10. Simply downloading the Osho Es Dhammo Sanantano
Q: Is this the same as "The Book of Wisdom"? A: No. The Book of Wisdom is a commentary on the Heart Sutra. Es Dhammo Sanantano deals with the earlier, foundational Pali texts. They complement each other but are distinct.
If you download the Osho Es Dhammo Sanantano.pdf, you are not getting a religious sermon. You are getting a radical deconstruction of human consciousness. Here are the four pillars of the book's content. If you download the Osho Es Dhammo Sanantano
The most persistent illusion, Osho argues, is that we are our thoughts. He uses the famous metaphor of the road: Thoughts are like dust on a road, but you are the road itself. The PDF details techniques to witness the mind without getting entangled.
“The mind is a mechanism for thinking; you are a witness for being. Once you see the gap between the two, you have entered Sanantano—the eternal.”
The book is a prelude to silence. Osho often suggests his Dynamic Meditation or Vipassana alongside reading the Dhammapada. Do not substitute reading for sitting.
Osho will say something profound ("Be a light unto yourself") and then say something shocking ("Throw away all scriptures, including this one"). Do not get confused. This is Osho’s method of de-hypnotizing you. The PDF is a finger pointing at the moon; do not mistake the PDF for the moon.
