If a German informal usage were intended though, it would be "Der Kabir", not "Das Kabir", so strange for sure. We may see a replacement cover at some point, because the stupid book-buying public could not appreciate the subtle genius of this usage. -- doofus-9 04:34, 10 May 2019 (UTC) | If a German informal usage were intended though, it would be "Der Kabir", not "Das Kabir", so strange for sure.

According to an unknown source there was a reprint in 1981. This information is omitted as unlikely. Samadhan (talk) 03:55, 15 November 2013 (PST)
It is strange, but cover of OIF edition has German article "das" in its subtitle. The edition is in English as i say i Amazon and osho.com.--DhyanAntar 15:46, 9 May 2019 (UTC)
There are other possibilities for "das", but all are a little strange in this context. "Das" can mean "ten" in Hindi, also "servant". As the latter it is often a part of people's names, like "Krishnadas" or "Krishna Das", "servant of Krishna", and Kabir seems to be frequently called "Kabir Das", and apparently even used "Kabir Das" as a pen name, but of course this is not "Das Kabir".
If a German informal usage were intended though, it would be "Der Kabir", not "Das Kabir", so strange for sure. We may see a replacement cover at some point, because the stupid book-buying public could not appreciate the subtle genius of this usage. -- doofus-9 04:34, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
