Seeta

    [My daughter] Krishna went to India and there she stayed for 3 months.... During that time I was seeing Osho in my dreams. I had looked into his eyes and merged and disappeared. When Krishna arrived back, I had a fever and was in bed. Her first words were: Osho wants you there right now!!! As I had a job, I asked for a vacation and by the end of March 1973, I arrived in Bombay. I went to a hotel, took a shower and ran to Osho’s apartment. It was 7 in the morning. The door was closed. I sat by the door and waited for Ma Laxmi to arrive. She and a small group of sannyasins, including Satya Bharti, C. Chaitanya, Rabiya and Vivek just came in.
    As I entered the Woodland living room, I started crying so loud, that Osho heard me from his room and Laxmi informed him that Seeta had arrived. He said to bring Seeta to him immediately. Laxmi washed my face, and Rabiya holding me on one side and Laxmi on the other side, I faced Osho from the door. He was seated about fifteen steps away from the door in the corner of the room, facing the door. As I looked at him, I stepped backward. He moved his hands so that Laxmi and Rabya would leave me alone at the door. I looked again in his eyes, my arms lifted straight up, I lost consciousness and when I ‘returned’, I found myself kneeling at his feet, with my head in his lap, he was stroking my hair saying I was waiting for you Seeta... I was saying, with sobbing voice: I can’t believe I made it, I can’t believe I made it.... I have many lovely stories about being in his presence that will fill a book if I start!
