Question 1
Why did you choose this particular part of the country to return to?
Question 2
You've been here before?
Question 3
In Rajneeshpuram you were trying to experiment with new kind of life in Rajneeshpuram. And can you tell us what exactly your vision was in what you were trying to create? And can it still be fulfilled though you've come away from Rajneeshpuram?
Question 4
But apart from the government, the general public, do you think you will get support from them if you start a commune?
Question 5
You have been said that you are the guru of the rich, and you have also spoken against messiahs of the poor like Gandhi and Mother Teresa. Would you like to comment on that?
Question 6
So how can we remove poverty, sir?
Question 7
What is your exact philosophy? Because in India there has been a lot of misunderstanding about it.
Question 8
Why do you think that happened?
Question 9
Now what are your future plans in India? What are your plans if you have any?
Question 10
Do you call yourself a communist in any, uh, in your own way, a communist?
Question 11
Can I ask you one question about your clothes? You know, in India, mostly permits and people like that are supposed to dress simply, religious people. But you wear very expensive things. And that has been written about. Do you like, I mean, what is the reason behind it, if there is any?
Question 12
And another question, you yourself don't wear saffron, but your followers wear red clothes and this your locket. Is there what is the logic behind that and the changing of names?
