Would you accept an invitation for a debate on Dutch television?

Debate is only valuable when it is a direct confrontation with those who hold real power, for only then can the truth emerge unfiltered and unafraid.

— Osho
According to Osho, he would gladly accept a Dutch TV debate, provided it is a forthright, face-to-face encounter with competent, relevant opponents—such as the archbishop or the prime minister—whose views he challenges. He rejects token panels or lightweight sparring, insisting on uncompromising, plain-spoken truth. For him, debate must be meaningful, direct, and with those in real positions of influence.

Yes—but only if it’s a straight, no-nonsense debate with top people he actually challenges, not a superficial TV panel.
