What is action? What is karma?

In this book, Osho reveals the key that unlocks the door to "desireless action" the path of karma yoga. What is the difference between our actions and the actions of Krishna and Osho-two great masters of the inner dimension? The problem seems to be that our actions are "ours." We stand behind them burdened with our desires and expectations. When things turn out as we wish, we are happy. When life does not follow our plans, we complain to God and curse the circumstances that prevented us from fulfilling our dreams and desires. This has been our pattern as human beings for countless lifetimes since the beginning of time.

"On one hand, we see Krishna playing his flute and dancing; on the other, our lives are filled with misery and sorrow. On one hand, Buddha speaks of ultimate peace; on the other, we say we don't even know what peace is. On one hand, Christ talks about the kingdom of God; on the other, we see nothing but hell around us. Either all of them are mad, or we have gone astray. But they are not wrong-it is we who have gone astray. We have been walking the wrong path because we have not recognized our own."
