notes
synopsis
Reader of the questions: n/a; questions are being read by Osho himself.
Question 1 from Pradeepa
How blind I have been! There are so many signposts I have missed, and now I am wondering about those who wrote the signs. These days I'm discovering so many traces of how reality truly is through words of others and ask, "Where were they?" especially some of the English poets, Shakespeare and Bob Dylan. Did they realize what they were saying? Are they consciously sharing their glimpses? (T.S. Eliot, Lewis Carroll)
Question 2 from Pratipada
I heard that women do not attain enlightenment. It did not disturb me -- only made me wonder if it is true. And if so, then what is possible or women?
Question 3
Before I thought I knew about life, but then I realized that it was just beliefs. The more I get into it, the more I come to know that I don't know. I came with almost no doubts about you, but now doubts arise. I had a talk with somebody who knows a lot about the mind: he said that most of your ways are ways of brainwashing. But I love you, Osho, and I often say to myself, "Take the risk. You may succeed, you may fail, but don't get stuck.... Be courageous... that is the price you have to pay."
I am confused Osho, but I will fight my fear and hopefully take the jump... the real jump. Are you really using brainwashing. If yes, why?
Question 4 from Klaus Freitag
Why do you give sannyas to anybody, even to those who don't understand the meaning?
Question 5
Can one love more than one person?
Question 6 from Ma Anand Sheela
Osho, it really scares me to death when you talk about picking out the right people.
