In the 2000 edition, I removed the "2005 reprint", as most probably, that is already covered by the next entry: the 2005 edition of Tao Publishing. --Sugit (talk) 07:22, 1 August 2018 (UTC)
- Sw Anand Haridas, communication of Aug 1, 2018
- The covers of the 2000 and the 2005 editions are virtually the same. The name of Osho is presented in a slightly rounder font In the 2005 edition.
- The title of "Swami" is not used for Swami Anand Haridas in the Introduction or the Dedication in 2005; nor "Ma" for Ma Satyam in the list of Editors.
- The volume claims three editors. It was actually translated by Swami Haridas and Mrs Sudha Joshi, and their translation edited by Ma Satyam.
- The Jaico 2009 edition omits the names of all of the "editors".
- A major cultural shift in the editing is the revised presentation of Daya Bai as "an enlightened mystic". The original term is sant. A sant is one of the popular Marathi and Hindi language poets who wrote about their loving devotion to the divine after 1200. The understanding of Daya as a devotional poet is greatly obscured by the use of the term "enlightened mystic" in the final text.
