Ok, PM, sounds like a good idea. Where do I go from here?

Please advise freely.

“I would say 1981 to 1985, the Sannyas movement from which many left and then returned later was cultish during that period. Did you live through that, and if so, were you a commune membert or not?” – Parmartha.

I agree that time period was most cultish. I went to the Ranch. After my first run-in with Sheela I left. What was important for me was the heart-to-heart communion with Osho, which does not require being in physical proximity (though I loved seeing Osho in person, too).

I did go back to the commune in Pune 2 when Hasya became secretary. I liked Hasya.

Well, Arpana, I did not go to be with Tyohar Ashok, or Tyohar for that matter, as I had been assured by a sannyasin friend that the latter was very laid back and did not play a particularly overbearing role in the day-to-day affairs of the community…The bastardo was wrong! Which just goes to show that you cannot trust what a lot of sannyasins say, dunnit?

What I really went for was to be in a beautiful place in tropical Costa Rica, to which I had never been before, and where there were a few meditations, groups etc. going on.

As Lokesh said earlier, YOU LIVE AND LEARN.

Being that in the vigil together is the generosity of what the laughter in ‘Charlie Hebdo’ spreads so well.
Mutuality.
Absence of Threat.
Willingness.
Clarity.
Playfulness.
Removal of Justification.
Invitation.

Across the spectrum of abuse, casting a rainbow.

These joyful legacies are as crucial to our evolution and our collective state as the conformities which are not, but would wish us to be.

That joyful egalitarian tease is the litmus of how we advance and counter the panic that serves only the marionetteers awaiting backstage.

Ashok, next time you want someone to advise you on life and sharing, do write in first here…the first comment is free, after that you’ll pay for it.

“Everywhere, everything is wrong but not around my holy daddy.”
“I disobey every command, but not of my clergy.”
“Words written in my books are timeless. Time moves according to them.”
“All are stuck in the mud, we float in the open sky like a dead fish in the mouth of an eagle!”

One does not need to have 100 million-plus members to be classified as religion. More than one person is enough sometimes.
