- notes
- synopsis
- Reader of the questions: n/a; questions are being read by Osho himself.
- Question 1 from Sw Deva Amrito
- Beloved master, upon returning to Holland last year I started communicating about you with an overwhelming sense of urgency. I felt you imparted this urgency to me, but it seemed also to be a part of my nature.
- This feeling of not having a second to lose, the wish to get more Dutch people to become sannyasins as soon as possible, made me far from playful. The seriousness led to much anguish because I was confronted with indifference, ridicule and contempt, especially from the journalists. Objectively I did not fail -- far from it -- but in terms of being, my trip was not exactly wu-wei. I simply could not combine this urgency with joy and relaxation.
- Will you say a few words on this urgency, even though you have given me so much already?
- Question 2 from Geetam
- Beloved master, why are there so many religions in the world, and why do these religions continuously quarrel with each other?
- Question 3 from Sw Prem Parijat
- Beloved master, my parents were Christian missionaries in India for twenty-five years. My brother was a junkie, my sister a compulsive liar. As for me, I am so serious that if I smile my mouth hurts. How did I end up here?
- Question 4 from Sw Anand Sangito
- Beloved master, I feel that I am a very special person. I am so special that I want just to be ordinary. Please can you say something about this?
- Question 5 from Vedant Bharti
- Beloved master, when I came here I felt God to be very near -- any moment and I would be with him -- but as time passes it seems impossible. He is not around; it is difficult to see him.
- Why is it so? Please say something about this.
