In
The Book of Children: Supporting the Freedom and Intelligence
of a New Generation, one of the twentieth century’s greatest spiritual teachers
shares how parents can develop positive and encouraging
relationships with their kids.
“Look into the eyes of a child—you cannot find anything deeper.
The eyes of a child are an abyss, there is no bottom to
them.”—Osho
Children have an authentic freedom. They are joyful,
playful, and naturally creative. But by the time they grow up, most
children have been sacrificed to the gods of “productivity” and good
behavior to the extent that only nostalgia for childhood remains.
Osho says, “It is the child’s experience that haunts
intelligent people their whole life. They want it again—the same
innocence, the same wonder, the same beauty.” And while each adult
generation may vow, with the best of intentions, not to repeat the
mistakes of the past, they inevitably find themselves imposing their
own inherited limitations on new generations to come.
This
book calls for a “children’s liberation movement” to break through
old patterns and create opportunities for an entirely new way of
relating as human beings. It is a guide for grown-ups to become
aware of their own conditioning as they relate to the children in
their lives. And, with that awareness, to learn when to nurture and
protect and when to get out of the way, so that children can flower
into their highest potential and greatest capacity for joy.
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 his death in 1990, the
influence of his teachings continues to expand, reaching seekers
of all ages in virtually every country of the world.
