- notes
- synopsis
- Reader of the questions: n/a; questions are being read by Osho himself.
- Question 1
- I am yearning for the snake to become alive in me, setting me aflame....
- Am I on a forbidden path? I am scared.
- Question 2
- This drama has occupied me since the transference of the towel. You passed your towel to sannyasins saying that it would descend like God -- but it landed on the floor. Then yesterday again you have taken it back. Buddha transferred the flower to Mahakashyap which is still with him.
- Osho, is there no one out of all your sannyasins who can receive your towel? Please say something and clear it clearly.
- Question 3 from Anurag
- Why do you appear to give more attention to Westerners and, on the whole, to almost ignore Indians? -- I am thinking especially of when you give sannyas.
- Question 4
- Lately I feel you have been throwing us back on ourselves more and more.
- Question 5 from Raj Bharti
- You made me realise I was a coward and I accepted it and was happy. Now I am getting a feeling that I am becoming brave, and I am scared.
- Question 6
- You tell us every day to surrender, yet it still doesn't happen -- why not? I really want to let go, yet trying doesn't work, neither does not trying. What to do and when, if ever, will it happen?
- Question 7
- Beloved Osho, I went in search of Mulla Nasrudin and could not find him. So, upon your suggestion, I looked up swami Yoga Chinmaya and asked him why you threw your towel. He gave a half-hour-long discourse on the deeply symbolic and highly esoteric reasons. I came away laughing.
- Osho, you tricked us again! Swami Yoga Chinmaya is Mulla Nasrudin.
- Question 8
- Beloved Osho, very mysterious things are happening.... A towel has been found in the question box and we don't know from where it has come!
- Could you please enlighten us.
