Talk:Kahai Kabir Main Pura Paya (कहै कबीर मैं पूरा पाया)

The main item here is the merger of Pura Paya with Gunge Keri Sarkar (गूंग केरी सरकरा). Other publishing details follow.

Discourses for Gunge were given as a series of ten talks from Jan 11-20, 1975, and Pura Paya likewise from Sep 21-30, 1977. But Indian audio sites almost all offer Pura Paya as a twenty-discourse series, without further detail. Tao Vision is the clearest, as it is with most multi-title series, indicating two ten-discourse series, one called Kahe Kabir Main Pura Paya (Gunge Keri Sarkar), the other Kahe Kabir Main Pura Paya (Kahe Kabir Main Pura Paya), while osho.com attempts to be as clear but falls short because of a lost url. (Part 1 is unambiguously labelled Gunge Keri Sarkar but Part 2 is in 404-land.)

About the editions, no first edition of pure Pura Paya with nothing added has currently been found on the net. Here, for now, we have only the merged version(s). The Rebel edition, weighing in at 520 pages, is significantly longer than the Diamond one, a mere 380. One trusts that it is simply smaller print and not something more ghastly, like five chapters missing.

A transliteration note: Almost all sites use "Kahe" for the first word rather than "Kahai." The latter has been chosen here not just because it is correct – which it happens to be – but because search engines find Kahe when you're looking for Kahai, but not the reverse, thus Kahai is more inclusive.

Lastly, Gunge has been translated into English, as The Great Secret. Thus, technically, it is not entirely correct to place Pura Paya in the "untranslated" category. But since the rest has not been translated, it is correct enough. Thus spake Sarlo (talk) 10:46, 11 May 2014 (PDT)

There is no clear 20-chapter TOC available for this book. What follows is a piecing together of two items found on different sites. Osho.com had, as suggested above, the chapters from Gunge laid out as Part 1, while Osho World had ten chapters with different titles but location in the larger book unspecified. It is assumed for now that they fit together as below.
