notes
synopsis
Reader of the questions: n/a; questions are being read by Osho himself.
Question 1 from Sw Deva Satyarthi (American)
Osho, why do I want to wake up when, as you say, awakening only happens when I am not? This seems very paradoxical.
Question 2 from Anurag
Osho, please comment on these words of Yoka: By zazen we can obtain directly the ultimate truth. The scholars like to teach others but have no deep convictions themselves. Once you have revealed your prejudices you can see your true self. How can you wander off into external struggles?
Question 3 from Ma Deva Nirdosh
Osho, why can I take almost everything lightly except my husband, Pravasi? Why do I fight him so? Why do I always try to change him?
Question 4 from Pragito
Osho, why are you so much against knowledge?
Question 5 from Bhagawato
Osho, why do the Jaina monks live naked?
Question 6 from Ma Anand Bhagawati
Osho, whenever I get off on the jokes you crack, underneath my laughter I get run over by a bulldozer and end up feeling like a mashed potato! How long can an over- and over-mashed potato survive?
Question 7 from Deva Yashen
Osho, I work for the Shree Rajneesh ashram, Poona India. Please... tell me a joke!
