notes

synopsis: Reader of the questions: Ma Prem Maneesha.

Question 1 from Puja Kavina

Beloved Osho, on one hand the world is preparing for a global suicide; it looks like there is not much time left for our growth. On the other hand, what I heard from you is that growth is only possible when we relax, sit silently, and wait. This is a paradox. Beloved Osho, please can you speak about how to come out of situations where one part of me is restless and wants to do something? -- yet deep down I feel that this leads me nowhere.

Question 2 from Chidananda

Beloved Osho, I've often experienced a strange space while sitting in front of you, and these days it is happening more and more. It is like being sucked into a space where I tend to pass out, almost faint. A jerk -- my eyes open, but only for a short time; then it happens again. I've tried to move into it with watchfulness, but it doesn't seem to work much.

It seems like a precious experience, but somehow I feel I am missing something by not being awake enough. Any suggestions, beloved master?

Question 3 from Sahabzadev Hasan

Beloved Osho, what is the difference between human nature, instinct, and habit? Are there any means by which they can change or not?
