notes

synopsis: Reader of the questions: Ma Prem Maneesha.

Question 1 from Sw Devaraj

Beloved Osho, today is my eighth sannyas birthday. Isn't eight years a very long time to miss the obvious?

Question 2

Beloved Osho, what is the nature of this chatterbox mind of mine? It has been going on and on now for as long as I can remember. What are its origins? Is its source somewhere in the vast silence it dissolves into when I am in your presence?

Question 3

Beloved Osho, I remember you once explaining that tantra means expansion. My moments of greatest joy and my moments of greatest silence are invariably accompanied by an exquisite feeling of expanding. This feeling is also present in the urge to melt into someone or something -- like a tree or a sunset -- that I love.

Where does this desire come from? Is it an innate longing to be reunited with something of which we were once part?

Question 4

Beloved Osho, all my life, including my years of being a sannyasin, I have never had a questioning attitude. This has not worried me up to date, but now since you have been inviting us to ask you questions, I wonder if it is okay that I am quite empty?

Question 5

Beloved Osho, my love for freedom makes me always give to my beloveds all the freedom I possibly can. So often, I put myself into an uncomfortable situation where I get hurt. Does this mean I don't love myself so much, and that's why I put myself second?

Question 6

Beloved Osho, do we have to transcend sex before getting enlightened?
