OSHO EXPLAINS THE COMING CRISIS (IN A MESSAGE GIVEN BY SHEELA?)

Beginning next year, the world will face 15 years of catastrophic natural and man-made disasters - including nuclear war. Tokyo, San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York and Bombay all will be destroyed - but the holocaust to come will not be confined to these major population centers.

And unless human consciousness changes totally, man cannot survive. As he is right now, he is already outdated.

There will be floods which have never been known since the time of Noah, along with earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and everything else that is possible through nature. There will be wars which are bound to end in nuclear explosions, hence no ordinary Noah's Arks are going to save humanity.

(Here) we are creating a Noah's Ark of consciousness, remaining centered exactly in the middle of the cyclone. I say to you that except this there is no other way.

Somebody asked Mulla Nasrudin why he lived on the top floor, in his small,
dusty old rooms, and suggested that he move.

"NO," said Nasrudin,
"NO, I SHALL ALWAYS LIVE ON THE TOP FLOOR.
IT IS THE ONLY PLACE WHERE GOD ALONE IS ABOVE ME."
Then after a pause,
"HE'S BUSY - BUT HE'S QUIET."
