In North India, it is one of the most common slogan when any leader of differanr stature and of any branch dies-
Jab Tak Suraj Chand rahega..
(Abc)…… Tera Naam Rahega

As Long as sun and moon will remain
(Abc) so long yor name will remain

Similarly, every prime Minster or President´s office has a cyclostyled format to remember one of the thousands Abc´s born during any day of the year..

On this day of …..Abc´´s brithday i share my best wishes with the followers of Abc and i hope we will be able to follow the path shown by that great soul of our nation.

Osho´s rebellious spirit will work fully when it is not just to catch the people, who are any way discontented with the mass organised religions but to offer them a better alternative, the way Osho has tried himself.

Shantam, a wee quote from my first book is in order…to give different reflection to that posted above.

You say, Thousands and thousands of people have lived in the presence of Osho, and still hearts feel hesittaion to relate with this man, who died just 20 years ago….

Luke Mitchell says, ‘However, the master’s rebellious spirit would live on unabated as a palpable presence in his life and others like him all over the world.’

Has someone ever wonder, billions and billions of souls in all these centruires have not seen Buddha or Jesus, it is only through the idolization of otthers, some romantic fictions told as historical facts that people felt solace, power and a bond was created for life…
Thousands and thousands of people have lived in the presence of Osho, and still hearts feel hesittaion to relate with this man, who died just 20 years ago….
His photos and relics have been disposed of, the way someone dies in the old people´s home…

“Since the time of Buddha Shakyamuni himself, there has been a strong Buddhist tradition of recollecting the lives of great teachers and practitioners, both as a mark of gratitude and appreciation and as a source of inspiration from which we may still learn.”

His Holiness The 14th Dalai Lama, in the foreword to ‘Brilliant Moon’, the autobiography of Kyabje Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche

The grass looks greener on another side of the fence..
It is almost impossible to find great men and women in one´s own tribe…
atleast this is the Tao of Sannyas..

Talking about how French helped create English, this Mc Solaar song captures the spirit.

Lyrics to Le Nouveau Western :
Le vent souffle en Arizona

Un état d’Amériques dans lequel Harry Zona

Cow-boy dingue du bang bang du flingue

De l’arme, du cheval et de quoi faire la bringue

Poursuivi par Smith & Wesson

Colt, Derringer, Winchester & Remington

Il erre dans les plaines, fier, solitaire

Son cheval est son partenaire

Parfois, il rencontre des indiens

Mais la ruée vers l’or est son seul dessein

Sa vie suit un cours que l’on connaît par coeur

La rivière sans retour d’Otto Premiger

Tandis que John Wayne est looké à la Luky Luke

Propre comme un archiduc. Oncle Sam me dupe

Hollywood nous berne, Hollywood berne !

Dans la vie de tous les jours comme dans

Les nouveaux westerns

On dit gare au gorille, mais gare à Gary Cooper

Le western moderne est installé dans le secteur

Quand la ville dort: les trains ne sifflent pas

Les Sept Mercenaires n’ont pas l’once d’un combat

Harry désormais est proche de gare de l’Est

Il saute les époques et les lieux pour un nouveau Far-West

Les saloons sont des bistrots, on y vend des clopes

Pas de la chique, du top ! Du CinémaScope

Il entre dans le bar, commande un indien

Scalpe la mousse, boit, repose le verre sur le zinc

Une deux chevaux se parque, saouls, des types se beignent

Pour des motifs futiles comme dans

Les nouveaux westerns

Les States sont comme une sorte de multinationale

Elle exporte le western et son monde féodal

Dicte le bien, le mal, Lucky Luke et les Dalton

Sont camouflés en Paul Smith’s et Wesson

On dit que ce qui compte c’est le décor

L’habit ne fait pas l’moine dans la ruée vers l’or

Dès lors les techniques se perfectionnent

La carte à puce remplace le Remington

Mais Harry à Paris n’a pas eu de chance

On le stoppe sur le périph’ avec sa diligence

Puis on le place à Fresnes pour que Fresnes le freine

Victime des directives de ce que l’on appelle

Le nouveau western

Parfois la vie ressemble à une balle perdue

Dans le système moderne se noie l’individu

Pour rester lucide il s’abreuvait de Brandy

Désormais on brandit, télé shit et baby

Blanche est la Chevauchée Fantastique

Toujours à contre jour, c’est bien moins héroïque

Dans le monde du rêve on termine par un “happy end”

Est-ce aussi le cas dans ce que l’on nomme

And for those interested in a wonderful man’s life look no further than the vid on this link about Jamyang Lodro.

Archbishop of Canterbury warns Anglicans to brace for shortage of vicars because of exodus to Catholic church

To see these Dalai Lama´s of Christianity and read their thoughts, one thing comes in my mind, what a blessing it is for the people to read and listen Osho..

Soul gets enouragement to chalk its own course, go where the wind takes..

Osho has the power punch, just one needs to throw Dr Rowan Williams kind of Dr. Amrito´s in the garbage bin..

A Master can live through His dsiciples but not through the disciples who claim to know better…
A single person claiming to be all the organs of a master is catastrophic, is anti growth, is unnatural..

It is the stretched soul that makes music.
And souls are stretched by the pull of opposites — opposite points, tastes, yearnings, loyalties. Where there is no polarity, where energies flow smoothly in one direction, there will be much doing but no music, much noise but no music.
The music is created by the meeting of silence and sound,
the music is created by the polar opposites.
