Path Ke Pradeep (पथ के प्रदीप)
- "On the auspicious occasion of Sant Taaran Taran Jayanti, by courtesy of Seth Bhagwandas Shobhalal Jain, Sagar, we are offering you eleven nectar letters written by Most respectable Acharya Shri Rajneesh to Mrs. Sohan Bafna, Poona (Maharashtra). Thinking, contemplating, and living according to them can illuminate your life." (from the 1965 edition)
- notes
- These 100 passages were written by Osho to Ma Yoga Sohan. These letters were not written and posted in the usual way. Osho used to keep writing, and from time to time he used to post a bunch of letters to her. She was told to preserve these for future publication.
- "Sohan was crying as Osho left at the end of a meditation camp in Matheran and he promised her that, as he had nothing else to give her in return for her tears, he would send her a letter every day...and that she should keep them so they could be published one day." (from the 2012 English edition)
- Of these 100, the following letters are available as manuscripts:
- letters 3, 14-15 - Naye Beej (नए बीज);
- letters 17-28, 31-35, 37-49, 52-78, 80, 85-96, 98-99 - Mitti Ke Diye (मिट्टी के दीये);
- letters 97 and 100 - Jeevan Sampada Ka Adhikar (जीवन सम्पदा का अधिकार).
- Most early edition has 11 letters that became included in 100 of more later editions: 99, 80, 84, 83, 96, 91, 87, 88, 82, 85, 78 respectively. The booklet was published on the occasion of Taran Taran birth celebration, and said to have been distributed in the audience when Osho was speaking.
- Later published as a part of Tattvamasi (तत्त्वमसि).
- Translated into English as Life Is a Soap Bubble (in 2012), where letters 35 and 70 can be found as typed copies. There is reference made by Osho in Letter written on 27 Sep 1968 to JK Datta about early English translation on which Datta was working. Unclear if it was completed and published.
