your work is fulfilled, sooner or later it is fulfilled. But that is not the point.
Out of ten, one is bound to respond immediately and that response helps you tremendously. It gives you more confidence, it gives you a deep certainty that you are on the right track and a sense of great fulfilment that you have been of some help to somebody.
So just go. Wherever you are, help people towards me.
[Osho explains that Vedant means 'that which transcends the scriptures' adding that the scriptures have to be transcended for God is beyond them -- beyond all concepts of God, beyond all their compensations. What is needed is: seeing that which is, not inferring about it, not guessing about it but a direct seeing of truth.]
That is my whole work here: to help people to go beyond all words. It is possible, and because it is possible, that is the only hope. Man can have a taste of God -- there is no need to think about Him. One can eat Him and one can drink Him.
[A sannyasin, newly arrived, asks advice on her relationship with a married man who is also attached to his wife and children. She goes very deep with him and wants more time with him. Osho says that this attitude is suicidal because one must choose between depth or length, the two cannot co-exist.]
Always in every civilization and culture, wherever culture has reached to a peak, this has happened again and again, that people have settled with two women or with two men; that has been the best arrangement. With one woman the best relationship is of a husband, father, householder; with another woman the relationship is of romance, poetry, love. It is the easiest way. To have both relationships with one woman is very dangerous. It rarely happens, in fact it never happens.
This is the perfect way. And feel grateful to his wife because she is helping your relationship to go deep, in fact she is the cause. If you take him away from his wife, then he will have to find another woman just as he has found you. Then he will have one kind of relationship with you -- husband-wife -- and he will be a lover to somebody else. Feel grateful to that woman and whatsoever you can do for that
