Creativity by Osho

Historically, the creative person has been almost forced to rebel against society, as Osho notes in the foreword to this book.

But these days, the world has dramatically changed. In today's world, everyone is expected to be able to respond creatively to new challenges, including corporate CEOs and soccer moms.  The people who only have their past experiences from their parents and teachers as their toolbox for coping with life are at a disadvantage from both a career and a relationship perspective. It requires a profound change of attitude about ourselves and our abilities to shift from imitative, rule-bound behaviors to creative and innovative behavior.

In this handbook you will learn to live more creatively, playfully, and flexibly. The book describes how to think "outside the box" and discover how to thrive outside of that box.

Osho challenges readers to examine and break free of the conditioned belief systems and prejudices that limit their capacity to enjoy life in all its richness. He has been described by the Sunday Times of London as one of the “1000 Makers of the 20th Century” and by Sunday Mid-Day (India) as one of the ten people―along with Gandhi, Nehru, and Buddha―who have changed the destiny of India. Since he died in 1990, the influence of his teachings continues to expand, reaching seekers of all ages in virtually every country of the world.
