- notes
- synopsis
- Reader of the questions: Sw Anand Vimal.
- Question 1 from Zareen
- Beloved Osho, you have spoken to us of the raising of Lazarus, and the miracle of Jesus walking on the water. But what of the miracle that is yourself? You have turned tigers into lambs, gorillas into buddhas, worriers and thinkers into mindlessness, and created an oasis out of a desert. Please Osho, speak to us of the miracle of miracles that is yourself!
- Question 2 from Prem Prasado
- Beloved Osho, I thought you would like this poem by Rumi.
- We are the mirror as well as the face in it,
- We are tasting the taste this minute of eternity,
- We are pain and what cures pain both,
- We are the sweet cold water and the jar that pours.
- Question 3 from Sw Devageet
- Beloved Osho, I can see through your game: you are giving me enough rope to hang myself. I will gladly do it, but I can't find my neck. But you are not going to get rid of me that easily. I don't know anything about 'being a buddha', but I do know the mind-destroying laughter and dance of being your sannyasin... My God, it's the same thing!
- Question 4 from Sw Anand Dhiren
- Beloved Osho, I'm getting more and more dizzy... with trying to follow you up to the sunlit peaks, taking a jump, then suddenly floating down the water course way. And before I drown in the ocean, you're dragging me out to dance till the dancer is gone. If we ever pause for breath, should I check that the grass is still growing by itself?
