notes
synopsis
Reader of the questions: Ma Prem Maneesha.
Question 1 from Purna
Beloved Osho, when I took sannyas and I first met you, it was like meeting again with an ancient beloved, as if I had known you for a long time.
Is it so, or is every meeting with an enlightened being so much a reminder of one's own inner self that it feels as if one has met before?
Question 2
Beloved Osho, it is impossible to defend you, and equally impossible to desert you. I am overwhelmingly aware of how much I owe you and how deeply I love you.
Question 3 from Jaya
Oh my master, I know nothing, but I know one thing -- that you love me. Thank you, Osho.
Question 4
Beloved Osho, often my fellow sannyasins ask what I think about a particular event that took place near you, or how I feel about the organization around you.
Being here with you, I find myself more interested in that emptiness which you speak around, that space from where you come.
Osho, will you speak to my friends about the crazy events and actions that always surround your presence?
Question 5 from Nityananda
Beloved Osho, in Poona when I first took sannyas, I felt very young and innocent. I had a "yes" for everything, and wanted to learn to be a "good" sannyasin. Watching others, I was learning what it looked like to be a disciple.
In Rajneeshpuram, I felt that as long as I was loving you, whatever I did that felt appropriate was fine -- thinking that I was a disciple, and the important thing was to come from that space. Osho, now it feels like there is no "being" your disciple; there is only a never-ending process of becoming. It looks as though there is no sitting back, having already become "Osho's sannyasin"; there is nothing but taking each step one after another, walking this path, this endless path.
Will you please speak on these changes and on this journey with you?
