OSHO MOKURAI MEDITATION CENTER, ITALY
“…For all those who are seeking, searching and have a deep longing in their hearts to find their home. It’s a strange invitation. It will take you on a long pilgrimage and it will end only where you are already. You will have to move many steps and on many paths just to come to yourself, because you’ve gone far away from yourself. You’ve completely forgotten the way back. I’m a reminder, a remembrance, of the lost home.” Osho
