Shailendra has sent the chapter correspondence info above as well as the scans. He adds that these were not necessarily whole-chapter translations but "selected questions". -- doofus-9 22:02, 11 July 2017 (UTC)

OMPH turns out to belong to a small group of smaller Hindi compilations published on an experimental basis in 1988 by Rebel put together to give potential new readers a taste of Osho in relatively inexpensive books. It differs from most of the others in being a translation and having only one antecedent book but the same picture of Osho was used on the cover, putting it solidly in this group. More on this at Talk:Mahaveer-Vani (महावीर-वाणी) (mini-compilation). -- doofus-9 05:10, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
