The Vivekananda series …. 4. Projection
Remember the world is a canvas and “you” are projected on it. Projection changes when you change ! Another gem from Swami Vivekananda.

Osho on Krishna
In 1970, Osho gave a series of talks on Krishna at Manali. The book that resulted from those talks is titled “Krishna, the Man and His Philosophy”. Its one of our most favourite set of discourses.
