synopsis
Reader of the questions: Ma Prem Maneesha.
Question 1 from Prem Nishavda
Beloved Osho, the other morning you were talking so beautifully about two meditators being together in love. For me, sitting with you every day is so fulfilling that my desire to be with someone has almost disappeared. This is happening to me every time I am around you. Today though, the fear arose that I am too miserly with my love and therefore avoiding a relationship. Beloved Osho, is this possible?
Question 2 from Ma Shantidevi
Beloved Osho, when you spoke about Sharda, the wife of Ramakrishna and her immense love towards him, I noticed that I felt guilty and sad. It seems that I cannot love a man at all. Out in the world the relationship with my boyfriend was so juicy, and seemed to be the only way to stay alive, whereas here there is a never-ending conflict. The conflict I feel is of longing to be alone, feeling totally contented within myself -- yet I do not want to lose my boyfriend, out of the fear of being lonely and vulnerable. I am so puzzled. Please, would you comment?
Question 3 from Ma Deva Nutan
Beloved Osho, the other night when you were talking about your vision of a modern commune, and your offer to Gorbachev to establish a model commune in Russia, I was deeply touched. After your commune dissolved one and a half years ago, I went back into the world and got quite a bitter taste of life in Western society: power, money, frustration, compensation. Your vision of a commune seems to be the answer for mankind -- to find a fulfilling way to live; your view is so vast, so clear. But looking at my own reality, I still discover possessiveness, narrow-mindedness, unlovingness, greed, lack of humbleness, desires, jealousy. I felt ashamed listening to your words because the gap between your vision and my reality is so huge. Beloved master, sometimes I think that you have too positive a picture of us. Or are you simply supporting the good seed? Do you really see a chance that, one day, we will live according to your vision?
