notes

synopsis: Reader of the questions: Ma Prem Savita.

Question 1

Beloved Osho, please explain what you mean by freedom. When I talk about freedom, I mean freedom from something or freedom to do something; it implies more freedom of choice. But my impression is that choiceless awareness precedes the freedom you talk about. What kind of freedom does not involve choice? Can it be defined, or is it one of those qualities like love which must be experienced to be understood?

Question 2

Edited excerpt: 11min 35sec, parts of question 2 **

Beloved Osho, what is the goal of life and how can it be achieved?

Question 3

Beloved Osho, it is stated that man becomes unconscious at the time of death. Why is this so? Is it due to the terror of death or the process of death?

Question 4

Beloved Osho, why is man afraid to leave his body and his possessions?

Question 5

Beloved Osho, your enlightenment was hard effort, but when you express your experience, it feels so easy -- just here, on the tip of the nose. But when I look at myself it feels easy and near impossible, simultaneously. Please comment.

Question 6

Beloved Osho, are you from outer space?

Question 7

Beloved Osho, today you said that the new man is here -- but in disguise. What did you mean by that?
