The Song of Saraha
by Saraha
The Song of Saraha--that is its Tibetan title. Nobody knows who wrote it down. One thing is certain, Saraha never did, he just sang it. --Osho Books I Have Loved

aka: The Royal Song of Saraha; A Song for the
King; Dohakosa; Doha Kosha Nama Charya Giti (full
Indian title); Doha mdzod ces bya ba spyod pa'i glu
(full Tibetan title); From the Treasury of Spiritual
Songs; A Song of Yogic Conduct (full English title).
Osho's 2 volume book set, The Tantra Vision, uses
Saraha's Royal Song as a jumping of point for his
own talks.
c. 9th century CE
Verse 1:
Just as when the wind blows
And still water is turned into moving waves,
So the appearing Saraha is just one,
Yet the king creates diverse appearances.
