synopsis
Reader of the questions: Ma Prem Maneesha.
Question 1
Beloved Osho, for years I have been a "groupie" searching for ways to understand myself. I have been in such misery that almost nothing asked of me was too much if it held a chance of alleviating my distress.
Now you offer meditation as a means for leaving my misery behind, and all I do is resist. The thought of being still and quiet doesn't excite me. In fact it scares me, and I end up even more anxious. I don't understand this.
Could you please explain this resistance to meditation?
Question 2
Beloved Osho, you spoke recently about the totality of laughter, and of how all the actions of an enlightened being are total.
A question that still remains for me is in connection with witnessing and being total in an act -- and laughter seems a good example. I find I can occasionally watch anger, hurt, frustration; but laughter has always come upon me before I realize it and can watch it.
Would you please talk to us about witnessing in this respect?
