notes
synopsis
Reader of the questions: n/a; questions are being read by Osho himself.
Question 1 from Baula
Osho, I cannot understand the philosophy of Zen. What should I do to understand it?
Question 2 from Prem Dharmo
Osho, I find all questions to be false because they imply answers. In my experience there are no answers, only discovery. If this is so, why do you insist on questions and answers? Are you not misleading people into believing their questions have answers?
Question 3 from Anand Narayan
Osho, just two small questions. First: How many psychiatrists does it take to screw in a light bulb?
And the second: And how many enlightened ones does it take to screw in a light bulb?
Question 4 from Anand Apurvo
Osho, how do you decide which questions to answer?
Question 5 from Apurvo
Osho, I was born a New York Jew and for seventeen years in California I have been a promising tourist in four different learned professions, numerous avocations and an unsuccessful marriage. Joy and satisfaction have not been my experience, except for momentary glimpses. I am quietly desperate. Please comment or tell some appropriate jokes.
Question 6 from Pratima
Osho, why do you tell so many jokes? Are you not interested at all in higher things?
Question 7 from Somendra
Osho, I am going madder and madder, but this seems nothing compared to you. Each day you appear madderer and madderer. Where will it all end?
Question 8 from Patipada
Osho, have you got a really good joke I can bring to a non-orange lover in the West who is a scientist and has been reading and underlining you for four years?
Question 9 from Anand Omkar
Osho, please tell me -- enough what for today?
Question 10 from Shraddan
Osho, what is "Walking in Zen, sitting in Zen"?
