As Osho points out, religious people accept god but not the world they live in, while atheists accept the world they live in but not the concept of God. He accepted the world and life itself at its own terms. In Osho s view, Krishna is a man who lived life as it should be lived. He says to the readers that in Krishna they can see themselves, if they are willing to shed their preconceived notions and inhibitions. Taking in all aspects of Krishna s life, Osho portrays him as a liberated soul, a man far ahead of his times. Even to non-believers, he is a figure who cannot be ignored.

Krishna is one personality who never fails to intrigue people who learn about the culture of India. This book, Krishna: The Man & His Philosophy, gives wonderful new insights into the character of the mysterious and intriguing Krishna.Treating Krishna not as a piece of myth or the product of a poet s imagination, but as a real historical figure, Osho answers several questions put forth by his disciples about Krishna.
