me controversial.
Q: IS THERE ANYTHING YOU ARE REALLY ANGRY ABOUT? ANY CONTROVERSIAL ISSUE?
A: No.
Q: YOU'RE BEYOND ALL THIS CONTROVERSY?
A: I just enjoy it.
Q: YOUR FOLLOWERS CALL YOU BHAGWAN. HOW SHOULD PEOPLE WHO DO NOT BELONG TO YOUR GROUP ADDRESS YOU?
A: They have to address me as Bhagwan.
Q: WHAT DOES BHAGWAN MEAN?
A: The Blessed One.
Q WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE MEANINGS OF THE BLESSED ONE, THE ENLIGHTENED ONE, AND THE AWAKENED ONE?
A: There is no difference.
Q: SO IT'S ALSO TRUE THAT A BLESSED PERSON IS A CONTINUOUS LAUGHTER?
A: That's true.

A: That's true.
Q: WOULD YOU PLEASE FOR OUR AUDIENCE GIVE A BRIEF RUNDOWN OF YOUR BIOGRAPHY AND YOUR FIRST ENLIGHTENMENT? WHAT HAPPENED? AND HOW?
A: I don't have any biography. And whatsoever is thought to be biography is utterly meaningless. On what date I was born, in what country I was born, does not matter. What matters is what I am now, right here.

A: Four years those lousy people are just sitting there, doing nothing -- no decision this way or that.
Q: I UNDERSTAND THAT YOUR REAL ESTATE AGENTS HAVE STARTED PURCHASING PROPERTY IN THE HIMALAYAS. IS THAT TRUE? DO YOU PLAN TO MOVE?
A: No. I don't plan to go anywhere. I am going to be here.
Q: WHATEVER HAPPENS?
A: Whatever happens.
Q: I SEE. BUT YOU ARE STILL BUYING PROPERTY IN THE HIMALAYAS?
A: That is my Indian followers making a commune there, just as I have communes all over the world.
Q: FOR THEIR OWN USE?
A: For their own use.
Q: I SEE. THAT MEANS WHATEVER
