- Reader of the questions: Ma Prem Maneesha.
- Question 1
- Beloved Osho, you have talked much about death and dying. I understood you to have said that people are afraid of death itself because they can't really conceive that it is going to happen to them.
- Am I fooling myself when I feel tremendously excited at the thought of death? It feels that -- if the event were prepared for with one having attained as much consciousness as possible, with loving friends around and an aesthetic environment -- it could be the most amazing thing going.
- Question 2
- Beloved Osho, Gurdjieff was accused of trying to keep his wife alive while she was dying. His disciples seem shocked and didn't understand.
- In what way was he trying to help her that he was unable to do before she was dying?
- Question 3
- Beloved Osho, when I was a small child my mother took me with her when going shopping. Nearly every day we went to a special shop where the shopkeeper always gave me, after we purchased what we needed, a sweetie.
- One day the man forgot the sweetie, and certainly I was impatiently waiting for it. He still hadn't remembered to give it to me by the time we had reached the door to leave, so I said loudly, "Well, I didn't want a sweetie today anyway!"
- I have always carried this little story within me, and found myself often behaving the same way through the years. Now, as I'm able to see the mechanism of it, I also see many people behaving that way.
- Osho, why are we often unable to express what we want and what we need, and why do we often choose the longer way instead of the direct?
