The Spring Comes and the Lightbulb Screws By Itself :) - Osho

Almasta's questions are far more beautiful -- small questions but significant.

She asks first:
How many politicians does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
Now this is spirituality! Almasta, only one -- they don't like to share the spotlight.

Her second question is:
How many Indians does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
Almasta, seven hundred millions, not a single person less -- the whole of India to pray to God for the old bulb to go back on.

Her third question is:
How many Catholics does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
Almasta, two -- one to screw in the lightbulb and one to repent.

Her fourth question is:
How many nuclear physicists does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
Almasta, at least fifty -- one to screw in the lightbulb and forty-nine to figure out what to do with the old one.

Her fifth question is:
How many Italians does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
Almasta, only one -- but don't expect results.

Her sixth question is:
How many mice does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
Almasta, two -- just two, and you can always expect results too.

Her seventh question is:
What is the difference between a pregnant woman and a lightbulb?
Almasta, you can unscrew the lightbulb.

Her eighth question is:
How many Osho sannyasins does it take to screw a lightbulb in?
Almasta, five thousand plus one: one to screw the lightbulb in -- whose name is Haridas -- and the other five thousand to celebrate the great occasion.

And her ninth and the last question is:
How many Oshos does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
Almasta, none... sitting silently doing nothing, the spring comes and the lightbulb screws by itself.
