Hi Anand Anubodh,
Thanks for replying with such honesty.
Your night tremors sound scary and I hope they have passed. I imagine in your research to discover the cause you discussed them with others and realised […]

Lokesh,
As it happens for me, I can speak about the folly of my beliefs only because I have discovered the difference between believing something and knowing something. Once you know something as true it remains […]

Swami Anand Anubodh,
There are so many ways to answer your question. In the main, I don’t think about the subject. And I have no knowledge of what happens after my death. I can only know a thing if it is true in […] -

Re the catch! My God, you remeembered it as well! That’s extraordinary after all these years. As you say, it was instinctive and with no time for my mind to fear or think.
What has been also fascinating is how I […]

The first part of the interview is Osho at his best. Through the the vast medium of the Press and his own people he doubts that anyone has truly heard him.
As I understand it, this doubt followed him throughout […]

Well Satyadeva , I have much to thank you for. I was not a bowler or a good batsman, but I enjoyed the sun and the company.
One day I caught a blinder of a catch, leaping with an outstretched left hand in the […]

Yes, you are correct and I did play cricket in the 1980′s, gosh, that makes it a long time ago now!!!
Sorry, but I don’t remember you, such is the fact of old age and memory loss.
But I’m sure you were a great […] -

Satyadeva,
Thanks for your kind and generous comments!
My Sannyas name was Rakkas.
I do understand your comment about 2 worlds meeting, having been out of Sannyas for many years. You write well about the […] -

Dear Aunty Ashoka,
You’ve made my day! You are so lovely and I love what you say. I’m far too serious and up myself. All you say about me is absolutely correct! And you have tickled me pink with your humour and […]

Aunt Ashoka,
Oh, thanks so much, you made me laugh my socks off. All you say is so true and I’m far too serious. Can we get together because I need you in my life. You’re a darling.
You’ve made my day!Lots of […]

Parmartha,
You always were a genuine guy, with a good heart and a soul.
Like you too, I notice the speed and consciousness of young people. They are faster, more direct, less afraid and in many ways ‘more’ than […]

First of all, thanks to those who have offered a sincere and genuine response to me, a recent visitor and contributor to this site.
I considered this site to be a forum for Sannyasins and others to discuss many […]

I agree wholeheartedly, in many ways the question is irrelevant, particularly as the emphasis should, in my opinion, be based on doing exactly as you describe, living in the moment. The enlightenment question […]

No, Shantam Prem, there are no wisdom lines on my face and I don’t use facebook. Why the emphasis on what I look like?
Many came to Osho to follow, some to listen and to learn, others because they wanted to join […]

Arpana,
As you so rightly say, most ideas are old and oft repeated. How many discourses did Osho discuss “living in the moment”, “Now” and the need to “live in the moment”? I listened and struggled for years […]

Shantam Prem,
I’m not sure how any bio details will truly help you determine whether I have any “wisdom” or right to offer any understanding I may, or may not have.
If anything makes sense to you, use that in […]

I know it through a process of self-discovery. I don’t know it intellectually. I have to discover it every day. Each moment is new, vibrant and alive, and I must be vigilant to the discovery every day.
I […]

What is enlightenment ?
Behind the troublesome, quarrelsome mind is a mystery. The mind is always thinking, worrying and living in the past or the future; but in this moment we are able to discover and explore […]

Dear Vivek Raj,
First of all, thanks again for your post and your questions.
