Talk:Aath Pahar Youn Jhumte (आठ पहर यूं झूमते)
Source of all the information for this book is the e-book found at Osho World. The main item of puzzlement, about which these mutterings are written, is the multiplicity of forms of the title, particularly the third word. "यूं" is how it appears in the e-book and "Youn" in the labeling of the e-book. Now, यूं "should" be transliterated as yun, but neither form is recognised by G**gle Translate as a word. When Youn is fed into it, they suggest यौन, and translate that as "sex," which form we have seen in Yuvak Aur Yon (युवक और यौन), or "Youth and Sex." This does not exhaust the variety of forms of this word that are seen just in connection with this one never-published book. There are in all, youn, yun, yu, यूं, यूँ, यों and यौन. Yawn?
Besides curiosity, the reason for the digging into this is the meaning G**gle gave the title, "Eight O'Clock Sex Swings," which seemed fairly bizarre and unlikely, but i was unable to come up with anything more likely. And would that be am or pm?
A decent amount of date and place info was given, at the end of apparent chapters, with little or no space before the next chapter titles. Page numbers are those in the e-book where the data were found. No actual chapter numbers were included but have been inserted by me.

About the strange date offered for ch 6, it seems reasonable to understand it as a simple typo, a 7 replaced by a 4, one key away on the numeric keypad. -- doofus-9 (talk) 23:52, 16 December 2014 (PST)
