notes

synopsis: Reader of the questions: Ma Prem Maneesha.

Question 1 from Ashok Saraswati

Beloved master, I have done nothing to deserve your infinite love and compassion, and therefore no act of mine can be appropriate to express my gratitude towards you.

I pray to you, my lord, please give me the strength to fight those ugly and inhuman people who, with the help of their brutal power, are dreaming of destroying you.

Question 2

Beloved Osho, the other night it felt so good just sitting at your feet, feeling my heart totally tuning into you, and the mind more and more disappearing.

But suddenly this Ramakrishna story hit me like lightning. It felt so right, but it is so painful.

Are the emotions for a master, the heart-to-heart communion also an illusion? Is being totally in the heart not the end of the journey?

Question 3

Beloved Osho, why do you always speak of the master in the third person?

Question 4 from Yashen

Beloved Osho, what sense do all the questions have? In many of them arising in me I can see my ego at work. Some I can answer myself, and many have been asked before.

Question 5

Beloved Osho, is there a difference in the relationship of the master to his male disciples and his relationship to his female disciples?

Question 6

Beloved Osho, the more I am with you, the more I realize how little I understand of the surrender of the disciple to the master.

Could you say something of what surrender means?
