There is a political obituary of Pari that appeared in the Guardian Newspaper of July 8th. Also on line at the Guardian website.

There is also a short sannyas obituary of Parti in the July/August, 2009 edition of Viha Connection.

I received this from Maitreya:

Beloved Parmartha
Love
Paritosh has a special place in my heart as my first vipassana teacher in Poona in 1976. His insight and compassion as a teacher impressed me immensely. He is a a beautiful, complex and very sensitive man. A rare flower of consciousness. He will be a buddha in his next life.
I love you Pari. Let go into the light. Bardo is a blast!
Love
Maitreya

Thanks Charlie for that.
We dont know you, but we also worked with and loved Pari. He was I suppose a bit of a mystery in the way he kept various parts of his life so separate, but I suspect it was quite intentional for whatever reason!
On the previous enquiry we hope to have an answer about Pari’s latest book availability soon.

What can one add to all that has been written about Chris Gray / Paritosh, except that he was over more than forty years a fearless and benficent friend, perhaps the best of my life, and that I loved him. All those various pieces of his life – the politics, the spirituality, the psychedelics &c – were in no way separate for him but were part of one individisble whole. It was that range (and its absolute indivisibility) which made him so fascinating a person. Although all those who loved him and particularly Maria and Eliane his children will miss his wisdom, kindness and compassion we must be grateful above all for the privilege of knowing a remarkable man.

I’ve read the book “Life of Osho”,and almost all the articles of this website,and they show me many things about Osho and the movement wich are unfoundable in the other places…
…I’m a young sannyas ,and it happen that Pari died in the same day of my 29° birthday….I’d never meet him,but his book and his articles seems to be the speech of a honest and free Soul,and i love him just because of his book.
Have a nice trip!

Yeah, Trippy’s blog I looked at.

Sure was a veritable paradox of a man this guy. Certainly had different sides. But I guess “play”- may be the key to both.
The situationists had a penchant for play as far as I know, like making events up, giving children presents in commercial stores at xmas, and seeing where the happening went. Quite original I heard but dont know much else. Maybe someone does.
And sannyas was/is a great big play in all senses. So there was a link.
