Description
The Story of the twelfth century court poet Hakim Sanai begins like a political thriller. He is moving with the Sultan of Persia and his military forces on an expedition to conquer India. But as they pass a certain walled garden they come across a drunken singer, who is really a Sufi mystic, an enlightened man named Lai-Khur. Sanai is transformed, enlightened by this chance encounter. He leaves the king to his meaningless war games and goes off alone to absorb what has happened to him. From this process comes a book of poems, the Hadiqa, The Walled garden of Truth.
Osho’s own books are transcribed from his spoken words. This is the first of a two volume series on Sanai’s Hadiqa, about which he observes, ‘ Such books are not written, they are born. These words are saturated with satori.
Nine centuries later, the revered modern – day poet, Coleman Barks, writes the introduction to Osho’s Book. In so doing, he weaves the political thriller of today, involving the same configuration: a poet, a mad government plan and an enlightened man. And he gifts us with a new translation of a startling and beautiful poem by Sanai.
About the Author
Osho defies categorisation, reflecting everything from the individual quest for meaning to the most urgent social and political issues facing society today. His books are not written but are transcribed from recordings of extemporaneous talks given over a period of thirty-five years. As Osho explains about his talking, ‘My speaking is for the first time being used as a strategy to create silence in you.’ ‘This is not a teaching, a doctrine, a creed: he says, and points out

⭐ Unio Mystica means the mystic unity- the mystic unity of the soul and the whole .This book is the first of a two volume series transcribed from the spoken words of Osho on Hakim Sanai’s Hadiqua, The Walled Garden of Truth. Hakim Sanai was a 12th century persian poet who served in the court of Bahramshah, the sultan of Ghazna. Once the Sultan and his army was on an expedition to conquer India and Sanai was accompanying them. On the way while passing a walled garden they encountered Lai-Khur, a great sufi mystic, but known to the masses only as a drunkard and madman. Lai-Khur called the sultan blind for embarking on such a foolish journey and asked the king to go back and give up the foolish idea of conquering Nations. Finding it futile to talk to the sultan Lai-Khur turned to Hakim Sanai addressing him as even more blind than the sultan and told him to stop moving with the king and to give up trivial and meaningless things like writing eulogies to foolish kings. Sanai listened and he became enlightened. Lai-Khur had succeeded in awakening him. Sanai left the Sultan and went on a pilgrimage to Mecca. On the way back from Mecca , he wrote Hadiqua and presented it to Lai-Khur. According to Osho this book was not written but born ” like a bud opens early in the morning and becomes a flower and the fragrance is spread to the winds.” Hakim Sanai through Hadiqua ‘ tells us of the sufi way of the path of love , of bhakti. He says that there are three paths, Gynana Yoga, the path of knowledge, Karma yoga, the path of action, and Bhakti yoga, the path of love. He says “the path consists in neither words nor deeds”.Again he says : The pure man unites two in one / the lover unites three in one “The pure man is the man of meditation. He knows the unity of two, the observer and the observed, the soul and the whole, whereas the lover knows the unity of three: of love, the lover and of the beloved. The inner being of a meditator is like a desert and that of a lover is like a garden. Hence Sanai calls his path the path of the Garden’ and his poems the Hadiqua, the Garden. Some of the visions of Hakim Sanai scattered elsewhere in this book are: “Once one is one, no more,no less Error begins with duality, unity knows no error” “Honey without wax is a noble thing Wax without honey is only fit for burning”. “It is better to be silent than to talk nonsense”. Osho responds to a number of questions from his disciples on various subjects like sanyas , silence, Sufism, duality, cowardice ,hypocrisy , sex , love and life. His views are unique, thought provoking and inspiring. He often uses parables, anecdotes and jokes to emphasize his views .Some of his observations found in this book are : ‘There is no actual difference between the learned and the ignorant, except that the learned believes he knows and the ignorant knows that he does not know.” “It is not by repetition of the Koran or Bible or Vedas that you will become a knower – no – you will only become knowledgeable” “There is nothing to be serious about. Laugh a little, live a little and be playful, and you will know what life is. It comes in laughter, not in seriousness.” I love reading this beautiful book containing the beautiful poems of Hakim Sanai and Osho’s unique commentaries on Sanai’s verses.
