Blessings!

Blessings! is a collection of songs, poems, and moments of awareness telling the eternal love between the Spiritual Master and the Disciple. The love that the Master endlessly pours is unconditional and pure, and the disciple receives so much nourishment from this that he or she can only respond with total devotion, living, and sharing the teachings. The collection, mostly written between 1988 and 1992, with some previous and later contributions, is compiled in alphabetical order because, over time, I've lost track of the chronological composing sequence and could not reconstruct it. In 1989 the Master drops his name Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh, adopting the one of Osho, which replaces the previous one from that moment. Osho is an ancient and traditional honorific of Zen, which means: my respects to you, multidimensional state of consciousness, and used whenever the disciple turned to the Master. Once the Master is sick and not knowing what else to do, I write him a message simply saying: Be well, beloved Master. That's all; I do not expect anything in return, and I forget about it. Several days later, I feel that something is there for me in the main office, from him. I quickly enter it and search the messages drawer, and there it is, a small note for me. My heart throbs with bliss, and my lips smile. I open it, and there is only one word written: Blessings! I'm in ecstasy! The pleasure is so much that I have to put it down somehow, and this compilation was born, which naturally I dedicate to Osho. Female devotees inspire some of the songs. Enjoy.
