notes
synopsis
Reader of the questions: n/a; questions are being read by Osho himself.
Question 1
Beloved Osho, many times I feel so merged in you that it is as if I have died and only you are. But this feeling doesn't remain constant, and always the ego returns. This happens whenever I have to again communicate with others or return to activity. Why doesn't the ego remain dead?
Question 2
Beloved Osho, a number of times I have felt in the past that I had reached a state of effortlessness. It lasted for some time, for days or even weeks, but then I fell back from it. Why does this falling back happen? Can anything be done to prevent it?
Question 3
Beloved Osho, do you feel that the hippie way of life -- a life of nonachieving, all play and no work, living for the moment, wandering about instead of remaining in one place -- is better for a spiritual seeker than the usual life of marriage, family and career?
Question 4
Beloved Osho, how is one to overcome boredom? How can one rediscover mystery in things that have become boring, repetitive, demystified?
Question 5
Beloved Osho, does a buddha ever get bored?
