Osho and Lojong

Lojong,

is a contemplative practice in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition which makes use of various lists of aphorisms or slogans which are used for contemplative practice.

These slogans and the associated practice were introduced between 900 and 1200 CE.

According to Wikipedia, it was popularized in modern times by such teachers as

  • Pema Chödrön
  • Ken McLeod
  • B. Alan Wallace
  • Chögyam Trungpa
  • Sogyal Rinpoche
  • Kelsang Gyatso
  • Norman Fischer
  • 14th Dalai Lama

Left out, is Osho.

There used to be a website at logongmindtraining.com, that fronted a database of Lojong slogans and commentaries on each by Trungpa Rinpoche, Pema Chödrön, Traleg Kyabgon, and Osho. The first three were taken from published work, but I'm not sure about sources for Osho.

I read them all including Osho and while nothing really stands ot, but Osho's commentary was pretty much in-line with the others.

Does anyone have any info about Osho teaching on Logong?

    I think this is from the Osho lecture series in The Book of Wisdom which is about Atisha’s Seven Points of Mind Training. You can find it in the online library at Osho.com, or as a pdf download at Oshoworld.com.
