How does it feel to have the biggest harem in the world?

Beloved Osho, I am sure that no man has ever been loved so much by so many women. How does it feel to have the biggest harem in the world?

Deva Manja, it really feels great! I can repeat the pope: "Okay girls. It is one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready and go man, go!" It is true what you are saying, that no man has ever been loved so much by so many women. But you don't know one secret. One woman is dangerous; so many women are not dangerous, they fight amongst themselves. I am completely at ease. They don't have time to fight with me; that is the beauty of having a great crowd of women. It is certainly the biggest harem. And the second secret you have to understand: it is a love that is not of the ordinary kind. It is a love that has the same fragrance as prayer. It is a love that is the ultimate expression of trust. It does not have hate as its counterpart.…

Question: OSHO, THE OTHER DAY YOU ANSWERED MY QUESTION ABOUT LOVING THREE WOMEN. A FEW THINGS HAVE HAPPENED SINCE THEN. IN THE FIRST PLACE, I MISSED YOU BECAUSE I WAS NOT IN THE DISCOURSE BUT IN THE ARMS OF THE CHOSEN ONE, WHICH TURNED OUT TO BE A BAD CHOICE BECAUSE SHE RAN STRAIGHT AWAY AND INTO THE ARMS OF SOMEBODY ELSE AFTER SHE REALIZED THAT SHE WAS CHOSEN. THEN, IN SPITE OF THIS, THE LITTLE COMMUNE HAS GROWN INTO FIVE WOMEN NOW. ONE WOMAN IS HELL, BUT WHAT TO SAY ABOUT FIVE? BUT I HAVE GOT A LITTLE HELP FROM MY FRIENDS. FOR INSTANCE, HAMID HAS SUGGESTED I TURN GAY AND HAS OFFERED ME A DATE WITH HIM. VIVEK SUGGESTED THAT I WAIT UNTIL THERE ARE SEVEN. BUT PLEASE, OSHO, BEFORE I DISAPPEAR INTO THE SEVENTH HELL, I HAVE ALREADY LOST THREE KILOS IN WEIGHT.

Now, the persons who were shocked when I said I am not celibate had carried the idea for centuries that a religious person should be celibate -- and particularly nobody has heard that an enlightened man had made love to any woman after his enlightenment. Naturally they were shocked. It is up to them. They can think that perhaps I am not enlightened. Perhaps it is time for them to leave this place. Perhaps they have come to a wrong person. But as far as I am concerned, I am going to be totally free, absolutely frank, no secrecy, no privacy. I know for certain that celibacy is unnatural unless you are impotent; and I don't think any impotent person has ever become enlightened. No, there is no mention of it. In fact, just the opposite is the case.

Osho! If a man does not find sexual fulfillment with his wife, he goes to other women. In doing so he feels guilty, because he receives all other comforts from his wife and wants her for all those things. When he feels guilty his mind becomes tense. What should he do so that his mind is not tense, or should he stop going elsewhere for his sexual satisfaction?

Notice this: a naked woman will not arouse you as much as a woman undressing will. Even if she is crude and awkward, her undressing will be more exciting than seeing the most beautiful woman already naked. When she is already naked, your imagination has no work to do. But when a woman slowly removes her clothes, one by one—this is the method of striptease and cabaret everywhere—your curiosity deepens: just one more, one more, one more... Nasruddin’s beloved bought a miniskirt. Modern, but a little shy. She said, “Look, Nasruddin, this skirt is so short, what if my underwear shows? Please check—can you see my underwear? Otherwise, if people see it, it will be vulgar.” Nasruddin looked. “No, it doesn’t show.” She bent a little more. “Now look. Now it doesn’t show?” “It doesn’t show.” She bent more. Nasruddin said, “Nothing shows.” She bent even more. Nasruddin said, “Absolutely…

No religion has ever tried that the whole earth is holy. For example, Hinduism believes that except India there is no holy country, and one who is born in India is blessed; all others are condemned and cursed. The whole world is full of sinners, all the saints are born in India; that is their attitude. And then in India they have their religious capitol, Varanasi. Q:* IS THERE ANY WAY TO MAKE A SIN IN THIS KIND OF SOCIETY? A:* No. In my commune you can commit a mistake but you cannot commit a sin. Sin, as such, does not exist. Q:* IF I STEAL ONE OF YOUR CARS, OR IF I RAPE YOUR WIFE? A:* That is just a mistake. It is not a sin. And if my wife is willing to go with you, it is not even a mistake. Q:* WHAT IF SHE'S NOT?
