Learn how to free your mind In these lectures on Zen, Osho shows the way to self-realization without believing in any God. He argues that the mind is increasingly our barrier to happiness and truth and that Zen teaches you how to detach yourself from it. By doing so, you have the chance to truly experience yourself and to connect with your own being. This is the heart of Zen thought and Osho calls it the religion of the future—a vision that goes beyond organized religion to an individual ‘religiousness’.
Saki is perhaps the most graceful spokesman for England's 'Golden Afternoon' - the slow and peaceful years before the First World War. Although like so many of his generation, he died tragically young, in action on the Western Front, his reputation as a writer continued to grow long after his death. The stories are humorous, satiric, supernatural, and macabre, highly individual, full of eccentric wit and unconventional situations. With his great gift as a social satirist of his contemporary upper-class Edwardian world, Saki is one of the few undisputed English masters of the short story.

ছোট্ট লঞ্চ দুলছে। একবার বাঁদিকে কাত হচ্ছে, আরেবার ডানদিকে কত হচ্ছে। সারেঙের অ্যাসিসটেন্ট হাবলু এসে জানিয়ে গেছে, স্যার লঞ্চ ডুবল বইলা। সময়ের অপেক্ষা। সব কিছুতেই ‘অপেক্ষা’ থাকে। ফাঁসির আসামিও অপেক্ষা করে কখন দড়ি গলায় পরবে। কখন জল্লাদ হ্যাঁচকা টান দিবে। আমি এবং তৃষ্ণা বসে আছি কেবিনে। কেবিনের দরজা বন্ধ। আমাদের সামনে কম্পমান মোমবাতি। মোমবাতিও অপেক্ষা করছে কখন সে দমকা বাতাসে নিভবে।

Osho takes us back to the roots of what it means to grow up rather than just to grow old. Both in our relationships with others, and in the fulfillment of our own individual destinies, he reminds us of the pleasures that only true maturity can bring. He outlines the ten major growth cycles in human life, from the self-centered universe of the preschooler to the flowering of wisdom and compassion in old age.
Though the Greek and Roman crew members of the Argo II have made progress in their many quests, they still seem no closer to defeating the earth mother, Gaea. Her giants have risen - all of them - and they're stronger than ever.
'It is sometimes advantageous to be unseen, although it is most often rather wearing on the nerves' Ralph Ellison's blistering and impassioned first novel tells the extraordinary story of a man invisible 'simply because people refuse to see me'. Published in 1952 when American society was in the cusp of immense change, the powerfully depicted adventures of Ellison's invisible man - from his expulsion from a Southern college to a terrifying Harlem race riot - go far beyond the story of one individual to give voice to the experience of an entire generation of black Americans.
