Read Osho books on Tantra , they are available on internet for free.

Yes , Spirituality is very contagious but real transformation happens in presence of an enlightened master, if you are open and receptive. In the East, we have developed a science: if you cannot find a soul mate, you can create one. And that science is Tantra.

@Loreena Meditation is rest, absolute rest, a full stop to all activity - physical, mental, emotional. The key word is rest, relaxation.

Book can be corrupted, book can be written by others.

In a hospital you will always find sick people, if there is no sick people in a hospital, it can't be a hospital. World is a hospital, if somebody is cured, he never returns back.

India has produced hundreds of enlightened masters in his long history, but only Krishna is considered as complete incarnation of God, he abducted 16000 women. His message in 'GITA ' is most popular among all scriptures in India. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bhagavad_Gita

@Annetta I have provided the link you can download it for free, you should know perspective of an enlightened master too. Excerpts from the Book : We enter on a rare pilgrimage. The Ten Bulls of Zen are something unique in the history of human consciousness. Truth has been expressed in many ways, and it has always been found that it remains unexpressed whatsoever you do. Howsoever you express it, it eludes, it is elusive. It simply escapes description. The words that you use for it cannot contain it. And the moment you have expressed, immediately you feel frustrated as if the essential has been left behind and only the nonessential has been expressed. The Ten Bulls of Zen have tried in a single effort to express the inexpressible. So first, something about the history of these ten bulls. Basically, there were eight pictures, not ten; and they were not Buddhist, they were Taoist. Their beginning is lost. Nobody knows how they started, who painted the first bulls. But in the twelfth century a Chinese Zen master, Kakuan, repainted them; and not only that, he added two more pictures, and eight became ten. The Taoist pictures were ending on the eighth; the eighth is emptiness, nothingness. But Kakuan added two new pictures. That is the very contribution of Zen to religious consciousness. When one moves on an inner journey one leaves the world, renounces all that hinders the path, renounces all that is nonessential so that the essential can be searched, sought. One tries to become unburdened so the journey can become easier, because the journey, this journey, is towards the height, the greatest height there is – the very pinnacle of human possibilities, the very climax. One leaves the world, one renounces the world; not only the world – one renounces the mind, because the mind is the cause of the whole world. The world of desires, the world of possessions, is just the outer part. The inner part is the mind: the desiring mind, the lustful mind, the jealous, competitive mind, the mind full of thoughts; that is the seed. One renounces the outer, one renounces the inner, one becomes empty – that’s what meditation is all about. One becomes totally empty. But is this the end? The Taoist pictures ended with nothingness. Kakuan says this is not the end – one comes back to the world, one comes back to the marketplace; only then is the circle complete. Of course, one comes totally new. One never comes with the old; the old is gone, gone forever. One comes totally renewed, resurrected, reborn – as if this man had never gone; as if this man is coming totally fresh and virgin. One comes back to the world and again one lives in the world yet lives beyond it. Again one becomes ordinary – chopping wood, carrying water from the well, walking, sitting, sleeping – one becomes absolutely ordinary. Deep inside, the emptiness remains uncorrupted. One lives in the world but the world is not in your mind, the world is not within you. One lives untouched, like a lotus flower.

The book I have suggested is from an enlightened master, it is more valuable, if you are a real seeker of truth.

Enlightenment can't be understood, even message given by a Buddha, a Jesus is misunderstood. All enlightened masters have failed , all religions have failed because we can't understand. Enlightenment debate can lead to misunderstanding and understanding both, it all depends on you.

@Annetta Lectures On The Ten Oxherding Pictures by Osho is compiled in his book "The Search". http://www.oshorajneesh.com/download/osho-books/zen/The_Search.pdf (Download in pdf format , it's free)

You are not a Hitler only because you are powerless, all you morality is a social politics, so that you can adjust in society. You are champion of morality not because you are aware , conscious like a Buddha.

You are wrong, if Leo has power like Hitler , he can kill more people. If Hitler had knowledge of spirituality like Leo, he would have become enlightened.

Ruining life of his family members was a bad Karma but it was necessary to spread a message in the world. Sometimes we have to choose from lesser evil and greater evil.

UPDATE: The Assam Rape Festival In India Begins This Week http://newsexaminer.net/opinion/rape-festival-india-begins/

Buddha suffered due to his bad Karmas, his journey towards enlightenment was very difficult. Even after enlightenment , he was stoned and abused everywhere he went to spread his message.

Buddha left his young wife, one day old son and old father, he was only son of his father, who was a king. After enlightenment he persuaded his children who belonged to a royal family, made them beggars to learn spirituality. Buddha ruined life of his family members.

Don't assume that criminals are worst that moralists like us. We are equally unconscious, we fantasize about doing crimes , they have potential to do the crime. A criminal can easily transform into a saint , if he wills, but we can't.

Morality is not spirituality. Morality is a social politics. When you kill someone , you are a murderer. When you kill thousands in a war with enemy nation , you are a Hero. An enlightened person can't do anything wrong, even if he is killing someone. Sometimes killing is inevitable.

An enlightened person can kill someone, it doesn't mean he enjoys killing. Killing can be out of compassion. Sometimes not killing someone can cause more harm.

Muhammad married Aisha when she was not adult. Hindus have playful Gods but when you see the Hindu Gods play you will find human faces. Brahma created the world and created the first woman and fell in love with her – his own daughter – and started chasing her. A very Hindu God! More like Hindus than like God. Chasing his own daughter! And the daughter became very much afraid – naturally. She started rushing about, hiding herself in different forms. She became a cow, and the God became a bull – definitely a Hindu God! When the woman becomes the cow the God becomes the bull. God is responsible for everything happening, including children's rape.

@Michael569 Watch this !

You are less informed about yoga. Yoga can give you everything , but it is very difficult to follow discipline of Yoga. You can build muscles and do a lot of mental work at the same time , but you can't achieve absolute health while doing both.

Matthew 10:34-36 Jesus said “Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. " For I have come to turn a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law— a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.

Life is very mysterious , we divide things into good and evil. Sometimes we have to choose from greater evil and lesser evil. Even a person like Jesus whipped money changers in Jewish temple.

Jesus was compassionate when he was crucified. Mansoor, another Sufi rebel, was executed. And the manner of his execution was very cruel and brutal. One by one, his limbs, even his eyes were severed from his body. Hundreds of thousands of people had gathered to witness the event. As his hands and feet were being cut off, Mansoor was laughing and his laughter went on getting louder as his body shrunk in size. Someone from among the spectators shouted, ”Are you crazy, Mansoor? Is this a time to laugh?” Mansoor said, ”I am really laughing at you, because you think you are killing me. You are badly mistaken, you are really killing someone else."
