Talk:Early Talks
From the CD-ROM / Osho books database, some info about the sources for the chapters of this only partly published collection. Note that the CD-ROM is not consistent in indicating the original language of the talks in this group, ie failing at times to note translations from Hindi.
- Ch 1: Jun 3, 1969, Udaipur, no title
- Ch 2: Oct 1, 1969, Pahalgam, title: No Mission, No Message
NB date may or may not be in the range for the Mahavir Meri Drishti Mein (महावीर मेरी दृष्टि में) meditation camp, given in Pahalgam, starting Sep 17 but ending, depending on source, somewhere from Sep 29 to Oct 2. A tiny quibble: CD-ROM gives time as pm but archive code (6910010) indicates am. And likely we have also to fit Early Talks #7 into this camp time too (see below), so two non-Mahavir discourses during this time.
- Ch 3: Aug 26, 1970, CCI Chambers, Mumbai, no title
- Ch 4: Sep 22, 1970, CCI Chambers, Mumbai, no title
- Ch 5: Oct 2, 1970, Manali, no title
NB this is the same time (and place, Manali camp) as another discourse published as Chapter 15 of Krishna Smriti (कृष्ण-स्मृति) / Krishna: The Man and His Philosophy. A Q&A omitted from that book?
- Ch 6: no data, published 1990 in Osho Times
- Ch 7: sometime in 1969, Pahalgam, title: Osho confronts the followers of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
NB Osho was invited to address them, as Maharishi was holding a camp in Pahalgam at that time too. For now assuming that was during the same camp as ch 2 above, so Sep or early Oct. Assuming the literal truth of the statement that this addressing of Maharishi's followers was Osho's first speaking in public in English, then ch 2 above is possibly not English but a translation.
- Ch 8: Sep 11, 1980, Pune, title: Bhuribai
NB Original discourse was part of Jyun Tha Tyun Thaharaya (ज्यूं था त्यूं ठहराया), an otherwise not-yet translated Hindi series. Perhaps it qualified as an "early talk" since it concerned Bhuribai, a silent female mystic who had her own entourage and brought them to Osho's first camp at Ranakpur
- Ch 9: no time or place, title: Women Mystics
NB the CD-ROM gives the date for this chapter as Jun 30, 1969, but this is bogus, since the chapter is a compilation, with its components cited as follows: The section on Meera is translated from Maine Ram Ratan Dhan Payo (मैंने राम रतन धन पायो) (Oct 1977); on Sahajo, translated from Bin Ghan Parat Phuhar (बिन घन परत फुहार) (Oct 1975); and on Daya, Jagat Taraiya Bhor Ki (जगत तरैया भोर की) (Mar 1977), that book now fully translated as The Last Morning Star. So as with ch 8, these are not "true" early talks.
- Ch 10: no time or place, title: Man & God -- The Spiritual Dimension of Life
NB CD-ROM notes that this discourse was Part 3, ch 1 of The Mind of Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh
- Ch 11: no time or place, title: Man & Man
NB CD-ROM notes that this discourse was Part 3, ch 2 of The Mind of Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh

The book was published as Russian translation Rannie besedy. Dikie gusi i voda (Ранние беседы. Дикие гуси и вода). We need to change the category for unpublished original English or leave as long as this book will be published in English? And what category to mention for Russian book? --DhyanAntar 17:05, 17 April 2017 (UTC)
There is no analogous category in German Pubs but that needn't stop you. How about something like ":Category:Translated Unpublished (ru:blah blah)"? The English category should definitely stay the same until it actually gets published in English. -- doofus-9 21:30, 17 April 2017 (UTC)
OK. And thank you for help. I had my doubts with this question. So I create this category and our main editor let tweak if necessary, because the name may be too long:-) --DhyanAntar 04:18, 18 April 2017 (UTC)
