Talk:Mahaveer Ya Mahavinash (महावीर या महाविनाश)

Times and places of discourses for this series are still largely unknown but Neeten (see Osho Source Book link at his page) has made a start, with two or three talks on Apr 13 and 14, 1965 in Mumbai.

A fine variety of numbers of discourses and/or chapters can be found around the net. They arise from two orientations, audio and book, and within those two, subtler variations. For audio, there are either eight or nine discourses: eight at the freebie download sites and nine at Osho World's audiobook offering, the first nine of the titles in the TOC below. Tao Vision splits the difference and says they are offering nine but #6 is unavailable. Regarding the book(s), most sites offering the 2011 OMI edition say there are eleven chapters (the first eleven of the TOC) but one not only says there are twelve but provides all the chapter titles, and with page numbers. Now there's a TOC!

The mysterious twelfth discourse, titled Taran Taran Vani, may be a recycling or reworking of Taran Vani, said by Neeten to be Osho's first published discourse, from 1955. Sant Taran (Taran) was a Jain saint on whom Osho spoke on a number of occasions.

About the 2011 OMI edition, publisher status is attributed to Rebel by some booksellers. And the subtitle for the earlier Rebel edition is assumed to be the same as for the 2011, img is too small to completely verify that. It means, roughly, "Delay no more, now is the only time." -- Sarlo (talk) 23:30, 13 July 2014 (PDT)
