Come spiegare un'arancia a chi non ne ha mai assaggiata una? Come raccontarne il gusto zuccherino e acidulo, il profumo dolce e fiorito, la sua consistenza fresca e succosa che al morso oppone una tenera resistenza?

"Mi piacerebbe cominciare dall'inizio... lascia che nel tuo cuore dimori la certezza che tu sei un Buddha" dice Osho nel primo capitolo, chiarendo che solo così il messaggio del Buddha diventa pertinente. E prosegue: "Lo so, potrebbe sembrare presuntuoso, potrebbe sembrare ipotetico, non puoi averne una fiducia totale. È naturale, lo capisco. Lascia comunque esistere questa certezza, ma come se fosse un seme. Intorno a quel fatto, inizieranno ad accadere molte cose, e solo in base a questo fatto sarai in grado di comprendere questi Sutra".

Il discorso del Buddha, tramandato nei secoli come “Il sutra del diamante” sembra contenere questa potenzialità.

As it turns out, Buddha had quite a lot to say on the subject of gratitude, including citing it as one of the four keys to the Gate of Heaven. Studies show - and experts counsel - that gratitude is a key component of our happiness. People who are grateful about events and experiences from the past, who celebrate triumphs instead of focusing on losses or disappointments, tend to be more satisfied. Gratitude can help us transform our fears into courage, our anger into forgiveness, our isolation into belonging, and another’s pain into healing.
