"BELOVED OSHO,
WHAT DO YOU SAY TO THE PEOPLE WHO CALL YOU A UTOPIAN?
They are right -- just their idea of utopia is not right. They think that ...".
synopsis
Reader of the questions: Ma Prem Maneesha.
Question 1
Beloved Osho, what do you say to the people who call you a utopian?
Question 2
Beloved Osho, isn't it amazing that of all the places in the world, the first two stops on your world tour should be the land of Buddha and the land of Zorba?
Question 3
Beloved Osho, I have been accused of being esoteric ever since I have been a sannyasin. Why is 'esoteric' a four-letter word?
Question 4
Beloved Osho, in Italy, April 25th is the anniversary of the Liberation from the Nazi invasion. It has always been a very meaningful day, because it signaled the end of fascism and the beginning of many hopes for a new freedom. Now at least two generations of Italians are deeply disappointed about what happened after the liberation, and an increasingly cynical attitude towards life is spreading all over Italy.
Do you want to say anything to the Italian people in a period when empty words and false hopes of politicians will be heard everywhere?
Question 5
Beloved Osho, some people say that you are part of the new age movement. I don't think so. Who is right, and what do you think about the new age? Can it help people?
