- Reader of the questions: Sw Veeresh? Sw Dheerash?
- Question 1
- Beloved Osho, here again, I find myself in the distress of a relationship finishing. It's still the same pattern. I feel that I cannot deal with it any differently than before. Is there no other way than playing the record again and again and again and just watching it? Each time, I think, "with awareness it will be different this time." But no -- the anger, the distress, the hurt, the aloneness, and also the understanding that love comes and fades away. I also am doubting that these moments of love were real. But when those moments of love and connecting are there, they do feel real.
- Question 2
- Beloved Osho, while I was at Rajneeshpuram, it was discovered I had cancer. My anguish was that I would get lost in an unconscious death and not find the way back to you. I am boundlessly grateful that your presence and grace have helped in healing me. The other day, I had food poisoning -- and again, the anguish. It was easy to be identified with the body in physical pain. I hear that doctors give morphine to dying patients to relieve the discomfort. Beloved master, please speak on meditation at the point of death. Is it possible to meditate under medication? And what about the consciousness of those dying under anesthesia, sleep or coma?
- Question 3
- Beloved Osho, sometimes, when I suddenly become aware of this clinging mind, which is only claiming to be aware but is actually moving out of this very moment, my being starts to laugh just for a few moments. Then my mind takes over again. It is always destroying beautiful moments where it might get lost. It looks like I'm missing trust, and now there is something I just can't understand: I feel trust in existence but I can hardly trust humans. My beloved, beautiful master, would you please say something about this? Could my trust in you be a mind game, an illusion, as long as I can't trust in so-called humans? Or could it be just a beginning?
- Question 4 from Surabhi
- Beloved Osho, though I search, I can find no other. Everything I find is this one, only this one. This one arises as a senseless sensation, more delicious than anything I've known before and grows into a beautiful vast aloneness. It is as if my expansion would have no end. Then suddenly I jump out of it and experience a terror of death, and I panic that time is so short and I have so far to go. Can you help me to understand this jump between oneness and separateness, timelessness and time?
