According to Osho, the Zen path isnt quite an ideology by any means. To move towards Zen
with the mind frame that it's a philosophy would be to start off on the wrong foot from the
beginning. Philosophy tends to be and object of the ego; on the other hand, Zen is completely
far beyond mind/ego. Zen is indeed, the procedure of moving above and beyond the mind/ego,
a great distance beyond the mind/ego; it's the technique of going beyond the norm, of
transcending your mental state. You won't be able to comprehend from the mind/ego, the ego
has no purpose in it.!

Zen stories by Osho says, that Zen, is basically a quality of having no mind or ego; that must be
remembered. It's not Hindu philosophy, because Vedanta serves as a philosophy; you'll be able
to comprehend it fully. Zen isn't Buddhism; Buddhism exist as a philosophy as well.!

Zen is an extremely rare flowering without a doubt it's the most unusual situations which has
happened within the experiences of awareness its actually the encountering of Buddhas
awareness as well as Lao Tzus awareness or experience. Buddha, in fact, had ties with India's
lineage: he voiced the words of philosophy; Buddha was very clear, you could comprehend him.
As a matter of fact, he evaded all supernatural inquiries; he was quite straightforward, logical,
and clear. His understanding in fact wasn't of the ego nor mind. Buddha was trying to eradicate
philosophy by supplying you with an unfavorable philosophy. Similar to how you can pull thorns
from your own feet with another, Buddhas mission was to snatch away the philosophy from
your ego/mind with a different ideology. As soon as the first barb is stripped out, the two can be
discarded and then you will be beyond ego/mind.!

Zen stories by Osho also states that, when Buddhas message extended towards China a
beautiful situation transpired: a crossbreeding occurred. In China, Lao Tzu gave his awareness
of Tao within an undoubtedly anti-philosophical approach, within a very bizarre way, within a
very irregular way. However when Buddhist students and spiritual Buddhist, met the Taoist
mystics, instantaneously they could understand one another. Their vibes connected, they felt
and observed the same inner life had unfolded, they could smell precisely the same thing in
terms of fragrance. And finally they came closer, and by their closeness, and merging with one
another, a new idea started rising up; thats undoubtably Zen. It possess both the spender of a
Buddha and of course the magnificence of a Lao Tzu. This sort of meeting never has occurred
before.!

Zen shouldn't be put in the same category as Taoist nor Buddhism. Thats why the traditional
Buddhists reject Zen and the Taoists also deny Zen. However to those men and women who are
actually interested in meditation, undoubtably Zen will be an experience.!
