O dětech – Osho (2008)

Osho had a fascinating and original way of expressing himself about almost everything related to human life. His trilogy On Men, On Women, and On Children is very popular. In the book On Children, he discusses various typical and important traits of children, such as playfulness, innocence, and natural intelligence. He also addresses various questions regarding pregnancy, childbirth, the relationship between parents and children, upbringing, learning, and education of children. Although he himself did not have children, his profound spiritual insights and perfect understanding of human nature allowed him to express himself on the topic of children and their upbringing. Yes, it is true that he did not have children himself - but he was once a child, and a very exceptional one at that; today, we would say he was quite problematic... Osho's own childhood was immensely important for his development and understanding. The perception and awareness of a child correspond to the 'pure' human spirit, still unburdened by layers of fears, doubts, pessimism, bitterness, and so on. Therefore, this is a book that contains a wealth of valuable inspiration not only for parents, educators, or teachers but for each and every one of us.
