- notes
- synopsis
- Reader of the questions: n/a; questions are being read by Osho himself.
- Question 1
- You said that those who want to attain need discipline and effort at first. Is that not a thing of the ego, and will it not become more strengthened? I have always been hard on myself and missed much of the joys of life. Please explain the difference between discipline and control.
- Question 2
- Buddha used to send someone afraid of death to meditate in the cemetery, to make him ready for real meditation. I feel my fear of death as a barrier to my meditation. Where are you going to send me?
- Question 3
- In all my years of catharsis in therapy and in meditation, I never 'lose control'. I always have a sense of being into the feeling and also of watching it. Is this being 'split' and not-whole? Please explain what is happening. I have this idea that one should totally lose oneself, let-go, lose control....
- Question 4
- You said that only man is violent and kills for sport and that animals kill for food. Yet I have witnessed dogs tearing apart a fox for sport; a fox killing nine chickens and eating only one -- not to mention the red ants viciously attacking us during meditation. Does this not put animals in the same category as man?
- Question 5
- What is money and why are most people deeply uncomfortable about it in one way or another?
- Question 6
- What is the difference between passivity, and laziness, a yin position and inertia? Sometimes I feel that without force of will I would never get out of bed.
- Question 7
- Is Jesus' 'offer the other cheek' attitude applicable for us today here in Poona, or should we meet the force offered to us with force -- or should we respond as we feel befits the situation?
