 A

If by “table-” you want the uploaded passage organized into a table, here's a concise summary:

ThemeQuestion/Idea Raised by DeviOsho's Interpretation
Shiva's Reality"What is your reality?"In deep love, the external form disappears and the formless essence is encountered.
Wonder-Filled Universe"What is this wonder-filled universe?"The universe appears mysterious and sacred when seen with wonder rather than through habitual perception.
Seed of Existence"What constitutes seed?"Inquiry into the origin or source of existence.
Universal Wheel"Who centers the universal wheel?"Search for the unmoving center behind constant change and movement.
Life Beyond Form"What is this life beyond form pervading forms?"Exploration of a reality that transcends physical appearances.
Transcendence"How may we enter it fully?"A desire to move beyond space, time, names, and descriptions.
Doubt vs. Answers"Let my doubts be cleared."The real issue is not obtaining answers but transforming the doubting mind itself.
Nature of MindMind continually creates questions.Intellectual answers alone cannot end doubt because doubt is rooted in the structure of mind.
TantraPresented as a technique or science.Tantra offers practical methods for transforming consciousness rather than doctrines to believe.
Religion and TantraTantra is not tied to a religion.It is described as a universal science applicable regardless of religious background.
Morality and TantraTantra is "amoral."It focuses on transformation rather than moral judgment, similar to how medicine treats illness.
MeditationA transformative practice.Meditation is presented as a remedy for the disturbed mind rather than a reward for already being virtuous.

BREATH BRIDGE TO UNIVERSE 

Table: Chapter 3 – Breath: A Bridge to the Universe

ConceptDescription
TruthTruth is already present here and now; it is not something to be attained in the future.
MindMind constantly seeks in the past or future and therefore misses the present moment where truth exists.
Purpose of Shiva's TechniquesTo turn awareness from seeking into direct presence, bringing the mind into the present.
Importance of BreathBreath is continuous from birth to death and is the most constant element of life.
Breath and LifeBreath and life are inseparable; breath is described as prana (vital life force).
Breath as a BridgeBreath connects the individual to the body, the universe, space, and time.
Tantra vs YogaYoga seeks to regulate breathing for health and vitality; Tantra uses breath awareness to turn consciousness inward.
First Sutra"Experience may dawn between two breaths." Awareness is directed toward the gap between inhalation and exhalation.
The Gap Between BreathsAt the turning point of the breath there is a brief pause where breathing stops; this pause is the doorway to realization.
Death and Rebirth SymbolismOutgoing breath symbolizes death; incoming breath symbolizes rebirth.
Meditation MethodFollow the breath consciously in and out without controlling it. Awareness and breath should move together.
Key PracticeObserve the breath naturally until awareness discovers the silent interval between breaths.
Buddhist ConnectionThe technique is associated with Anapanasati (breath awareness) and is presented as the method through which Buddha attained enlightenment.
Result ("The Beneficence")When awareness enters the gap where no breath is moving, a transformative realization becomes possible.
