But it seems the big tent of Osho News is not big enough to have room for
news about Swami Rajneesh.
And not big enough for responses of the readers.

oh OIF are definately interested in rajneesh lokesh – if they werent they would not put so much energy into blocking his work and feeding the sannyas world misinformaton about him – amrito and jayesh know well who rajneesh is – and the threat he represents to their false claims of ownership of osho

SN, nothing wrong in making a buck. Osho was partial to making more than a few bucks himself and encouraged his sannyasins to follow suit. I recall when there was a mass exodus of sannyasins from Poona in 81 Osho gave a clear message that he did not want his people sponging off social security when theY arrived back in the West.

Maybe OIF are simply not interested. For me that would be a good enough defence. It does not necessarily follow that they have developed an ugly attitude if they are not interested in something.
An attitude needs a certain level of unawareness to develop. But hey, Dhyanraj should know all about that seeing as how he lives with a major attitude, which he displays perfectly here on SN. One needs to have aquired a major attitude to become such a religious zealot.
If Swami Rajneesh is such a beacon of light he does not need OIF to recognize him. He can just kick back and seekers will flock to him like the proverbial moth to a burning flame.

Not asking, just suggesting, DR…

Anyway, what else to surmise given your own description?:
“i am living an ordinary quiet life in an ordinary house in an ordinary suburban street in the western world just now
should i join the army or some corporation or become a taxi driver and see how i get on there?”

I mean, you don’t sound as if you’re at ‘the cutting edge’ of things out there, with your psycho-spiritual mettle tested at every turn, do you?

So how can you possibly know your ‘realisation(s)’ have any true validity, ie that you are indeed a “finder” rather than a mere ‘claimer’? (Gosh, I almost wrote ‘funder’ and ‘claimant’ there!). If the latter, then yes, it would really be “ridiculous”….

i sent them the article – but no response from osho news – its not the first time i have sent them news of rajneesh – silence is their answer – ignore rajneesh and he will go away ha ha ha ha – osho news doesnt engage in discussion rather like OIF – they have no defence for their ugly attitude so better to say nothing

this is all just ridiculous isnt it satyadeva ?
you invent some imaginary view of someone elses life and then ask them to live it it differently – ha ha ha ha

Ok, so you’re living in the western world, DR, fair enough…

But if you don’t understand what the ‘world’ is then you don’t understand much…The world is the man-made – ie mind-made construction that we’re all born into and conditioned by – and which we depend upon for our survival, as it happens. It’s out there in the media, the politics, the wealth, the poverty, the violence, the stress, education systems, worship of ‘success’, fundamentalist religions, ignorance of ‘religionless religion’, etc. etc. etc.

It’s pretty well interchangeable with ‘mind’, isn’t it:
World being externalised mind, mind being internalised world?

If you’re living a particularly quiet life, carefully removed from the ‘sound and fury’, then perhaps it all sort of passes you by? And maybe you’re just too old to dive in there and see whether your claimed ‘realisation(s)’ help you swim (or sink)…But it would be pretty instructive to find out, I suggest….

I too am mystified Dhyan Raj by the type of journalism which goes on at Osho No News. And now they seem to have taken over the Osho World articles as well.
There is absolutely no reason why they should not carry the news of Rajneesh’s heart attack. Did you ask them why? If so what was their answer?
They do publish what seem like Sunday middle brow articles to me all over their site which is much too full, and boring to boot. Many advertise there, but I am sure they, unlike Rajneesh, are constantly out to make a buck, and Osho No News probably make plenty of profit from such advertising.

Thanks Dhyan Raj, and especially for those memories! I do not suffer the best of health now in my 67th year, so dont always get round to looking at all comments, but just found this one now.
