notes

synopsis: Reader of the questions: n/a; questions are being read by Osho himself.

Question 1

Osho, please tell a little story about Jesus today....

Question 2 from Prem Harish

The other day, soon after I arrived, the battle began between sex and silence, relationship and aloneness. I felt at the time that a synthesis was impossible. It was as if I had to choose one or the other and that either way I would miss out. It seemed at the time possible to go straight to the sky without going through the earth.

Question 3

The other day you talked about the bisexuals. I am one of them, but I am utterly tired of both men and women. Please help me...

Question 4 from Julian Holdsworth

Osho, why are people drawn here as if by a magnet? Why are people held here? Is it our need? Or is it your magnetism? Sometimes I think you are a god who is playing for us and I am joyful. Then I think you are a sinister magician manipulating us and I am afraid and resentful.

I wish I could believe totally in your disinterestedness. Is this all just my creating more nonsense?

Question 5

I have tried my whole life to change myself; but it seems nothing ever changes -- I remain the same. Is not there any hope for me?

Question 6

What is the law of necessity?
