Interview. No announcement heard : unidentified Indian man.
CD-ROM on this chapter: Interview with India Today.
Question 1
India is going through a critical period. Why do you feel Tamil Lanka conflicts have increased? Can our politicians resolve these problems which (inaudible) see the country having?
Question 2
(Inaudible) the government and the politicians. So how will we come out of this?
Question 3
I am sorry to interrupt you, but I have three or four questions and only about half an hour is left for the talk.
Question 4
I have come for an interview; I shall come in the evenings for a discourse but you have answered my first question, and I should be able to go on to the remaining questions.
Question 5
I am not threatening you, Bhagwan, I am just explaining my position, that I have come here for an interview, with a list of questions which you have seen, and we have only half an hour or so left, and I would like...
Question 6
... Whatever you think of the questions, I would like to answer to those questions before I go. I mean
Question 7
Do you see your return to India as the end of the phase of your quest?
Question 8
For a long time you propounded a philosophy which allowed for free expression of feelings by devotees. The sexual practices in your ashram received particular attention from the media. Now with your disillusionment with mankind, do you see a change in your basic teaching?
Question 9
But when you came back you said you were disillusioned with mankind, you said that the third world war would be a good solution. So, I mean, does this bring about a change in the way you look at mankind?
Question 10
(Inaudible) you had problems in the U.S. I would like to know whether it was also because of the failure of the section of your devotees to live up to your teachings?
Question 11
What do you plan to do in India now? Will you set up an ashram, because Rajiv Gandhi's government has denied permission once to you; so will you try and recreate this ashram in India?
