notes
synopsis
Reader of the questions: Ma Deva Anando.
Question 1 from Prem Padmani
Beloved Osho, I have known frustration attempting to describe my mystical experiences to people. It is like trying to explain what an orgasm is to someone that has never known one. One can say it is like a wave of pleasure or like a sneeze, but the reality of the experience is much more satisfying than the words convey.
Verbalizing something seen or felt can leave one exhausted. Even if one can lead another up to the experience, it is the perogative of the other person to be receptive. You can't really give another person an orgasm; they have to permit themselves to experience it. Dearest Osho, I am so grateful for the immense bliss I have known through meditation. One problem: How does one talk about it?
Question 2 from Premdipa
Beloved Osho, sometimes I have a feeling that now I am ripe for the world, that now I can go and do those things, "what a woman has to do, a woman has to do."
To go out into the big, wide world, make lots of money, impress everybody and go down in history. I have spent a lot of the last three years in the commune and loved it. But recently, now that I am the closest to you that I have ever been, all these fantasies of fame and fortune emerge.
Why can I not just sit down, be at peace with the here and now, and soak up the love you shower upon me every day? Am I really so blind?
