Abstract

Osho, or Swami Rajneesh (11 December 1931–19 January 1990) is known for his radical, unconventional thinking. Yet, he has shown people the way to live life in a joyous, rejoicing way. Being a professor of philosophy, his thoughts and ideas were ahead of his times. He has propounded five very important dimensions of education, which are like an epitome of light in the path of education in every stage of human life. These five dimensions of education revolves around the importance of imparting the positive grandeur of our inheritance, developing scientific bent of mind, learning of at least two languages, humor to add reverence for life, meditation and development of art of living to have a full education, a whole education. The present study proposes to elucidate on these five dimensions based on writings and discourses of Osho.
