synopsis
Reader of the questions: unknown.
Question 1
One day -- it was a Friday when orthodox Jews are busy preparing for the Sabbath -- a man who didn't like Jews met an orthodox rabbi on the street. In an attempt to torment him he asked him to express the entire philosophy of Judaism while he stood on one foot. The rabbi stood on one foot and said, "Do unto others as you would have others do unto you. That is the law. The rest is commentary."
If I were to be met by a tormentor and asked to stand on one foot and explain in one sentence what your teaching is would I be correct in saving that it is freedom from suppression?
Question 2
Do you recommend any particular discipline besides Dynamic meditation?
Question 3
What makes someone a guru, a spiritual master?
Question 4
But may be some people need slavery.
Question 5
My fear has been that if I follow your methods of meditation, I will be leaving my responsibilities.
Question 6
What you talk about can mean so much to so many people. Your message has to spread, it has to bring about a spiritual explosion. That seems to be the only hope there is for us today. How do you intend to let your ideas grow and spread and blossom, flower, into something more universal, more accepted, more usual?
Question 7
What is neo-sannyas all about?
Question 8
Is it a mingling of different religious concepts?
Question 9
What is your attitude toward sex, and sex outside of marriage?
Question 10
What is your view of pornography and what are your views on the new morality of sexually free societies like Sweden?
Question 11
Do you consider India hypocritical in this respect?
Question 12
Is love our basic energy?
Question 13
When I go back to my own country, what plan should I follow in trying to teach your methods to others?
