- Interview by Sw Anand Veeresh & Ma Samadhi.
- Question 1
- Beloved Osho, I was sitting in Holland, and through everything that happened around you, I got really worried, so I just decided to come. I wanted to see you, I just wanted to see whether you are okay. I was so mad when I saw what happened to you, I got so angry.
- I have a question -- I just made it up. What I see happening in Europe for the last months, is the attitude that religion is dead and leaders are "out." You have shown me the meaning of religion, and I consider myself a leader, so I decided to call myself a religious leader. Everybody freaked out, saying, "You are nuts -- that is not the thing to do today." I said, "That's why I'm doing it!"
- Osho, what do you think?
- Question 2
- Beloved Osho, I don't want you to be worried about me. I haven't gone nuts organizing religions, don't be worried that I am doing that -- I am not that serious about it. I thought you would have a good laugh!
- You think that I have gone nuts out there -- no, I was just trying to tell you, "Hey, Osho, I'm in your corner." I'm not telling people to join my team. No, don't worry about that.
- No, I'm sitting here saying, "Oh, man! He thinks I've gone crazy!" No, no, no, no -- I was just adding a question. I thought she [indicating Samadhi] was going to do the interview, and I thought, "Here is a laugh for the end: 'Osho, I am a religious leader!'"
- Question 3
- Beloved Osho, I just thank you so much!
- Question 4
- Beloved Osho, I have been crying very much. I thought I was crying about you -- I think not. All the time I felt sad and so embarrassed for you, and I never want it to happen again!
- I see a lot of people... I know that lots of people love you so much. They cannot take the stories of Sheela, the commune, but whenever they read your words or they read a book or they hear a thing, they feel you.
- And I just wonder: How will it be possible for people still to have you available? There are no big centers anymore. How will it be possible?
- Is there anything that can be done?
