Danger: Truth at Work: Accepting the Unknowable Inc CD-Rom
by Osho (9780984444410)

These are unique talks from the time Osho spent in the United States of America. He has this to say to his audience about the process:

"How do you ask a question that is really meaningful, not simply intellectually but existentially? Not just to add verbal knowledge, but to grow towards authentic living?
There are a few things that have to be remembered: Whatever you ask, never ask a ready-made question, never ask a stereotyped question. Ask something that is immediately concerned with you, something that is meaningful to you, that carries some transforming message for you. Ask that question upon which your life depends.

Don?t ask bookish questions, don?t ask borrowed questions. Ask something that you want to ask. When I say 'you', I mean the you that you are this very moment, that is here and now, that is immediate. When you ask something that is immediate, that is here and now, it becomes existential; it is not concerned with memory but with your being.

Don?t ask anything that once answered will not change you in any way. For example, someone can ask whether there is a God: 'Does God exist?' Ask such a question only if the answer will change you, so that if there is a God then you will be one type of person and if there is no God you will be a different person. But if it will not cause any change in you to know whether God exists or is not, then the question is meaningless. It is just curiosity, not inquiry.

As I see it, whether God exists or not, people remain the same. They are interested only for the sake of peripheral knowledge. They are not really concerned; the question is not existential.
So remember, ask whatever you are really concerned about. Only then will the answer be meaningful for you, meaningful in the sense that you are going to be different with a different answer. Will you be a different type of being depending on the answer? Will your whole life begin to have such a different shape that you cannot be the same?"
