Communication as such is difficult - OSHO Talks Vol. 4

In this meditation Osho addresses the intrinsic difficulties of a basic act between human beings: communication. As he tells us, communication by itself is complicated, but even more so between lovers. To address its peculiarities we must understand the difficulties of communication in general, knowing that each mind has been conditioned by different fathers, priests and politicians. When two minds try to communicate at least as far as the usual sphere of mundane things is concerned, there is no difficulty, but the moment they begin to go beyond that into the world of concepts, communication becomes more and more complicated. According to Osho: Communication by itself is very difficult. Of course, it is more difficult between lovers. But, first, you must understand the difficulty of communication in general. Every mind has been conditioned by different parents, different priests, different politicians. It is a different world in itself. And when two minds try to communicate, at least as far as the usual sphere of worldly things is concerned, there is no difficulty. But the moment they begin to go beyond that into the world of concepts, communication becomes more and more difficult.
