Osho's invitation echo's the words of the Sufi mystic, Jalaluddin Rumi: Come, come, whoever you are; Wanderer, worshipper, lover of learning... It does not matter- ours is not a caravan of despair. Come, even if you have broken your vow A thousand times. Come, come, yet again come.
These could be Osho's words - an encouragement to every seeker, new or old, to take the courage and address their questions. And Osho responds so totally, with so profound an understanding of the truth behind each question, and with such love and gentle humour - softening but never ginding the sword-thrust honesty of the answer - that he reaches as deep inside.
