notes

synopsis: Reader of the questions: n/a; questions are being read by Osho himself.

Question 1 from Shantidharma

I am in deep confusion about trust and action. Part of me says, "If you sit back, nothing will happen. God helps those who help themselves," while another part of me says, "Don't do anything. Don't push the river. Just trust and everything will be all right."

I am neither trusting enough nor active enough. I am caught between the two, or move from one position to the other. Can you say something about this please?

Question 2 from Vandan

I am experiencing something that I am calling "the pain of myself". Can you say what this is?

Question 3 from Hans Conard Zander

Osho, can you please give me your car?

Question 4

Is not life nothing but misery?

Question 5 from Meeto

Osho, as I read your books and hear your discourses you seem to misquote and take out of context the words of Sigmund Freud. What is your point, Osho? I don't understand the trickery involved.

Question 6 from Vipassana

In the process of becoming more ordinary, what is happening, to the ego?

Question 7 from Deva Pagal

Osho, we must be free. Yet where does freedom end and selfishness begin?
