Bill, I am not a yes man. It is a tricky judgement. Parmartha goes on about N20 but none of the articles tell us how frequently or how much he took. I somewhat judge by character having seen many of the twenty people in the flesh. I think I am a good judge of character. [...]

alokjohn commented on the blog post A Trademark for Osho? 12 years, 11 months ago
Dharmen, With the information I have to hand I support Pune re trademarks. I just want to say that the whole question of what is Osho’s work is very delicate. If you believe there is such a thing as raising awareness, then you have to make a judgement as to whether a particular sannyasins’s work [...]

Hi Dharmen, First paragraph…. Ramateertha says twice that in his opinion since 1990, Pune wants to control the centres to make money. I would have thought a newcomer reading this would infer that Uta was sending its profits to Pune, something I doubt. For one thing the sort of money made by UTA is going [...]

So Osho Uta Koln, was sending money to Pune? Really? Uta’s hard earned profits from daily dynamic and kundalini were being sent to support the rich lifestyle of Mr Jayesh in Pune. Really? When I worked in Osho centres in the 80s and 90s there was a massive book of rules, albeit we did not [...]

As Lokesh says this subject has been brought up many times, and we have no new information. Just to give my opinion for anyone reading…. Parmartha and Lokesh were never in regular daily contact with Osho. But his doctor and about 20 others were. All these people consistently say he was poisoned by the Americans [...]

Telephone opinion polls were conducted from outside Iran by US professional polling organisations at the time of the 2009 election, confirming the result.

Lokesh, I never met Osho. But when I walked thru the entrance of 17 Koregoan Park in 1990, I was hit with a sledgehammer of awareness. I was overwhelmed with unconscious thoughts becoming conscious. Can’t you call this a mystery school?

In the case of Iran I have read the news from both sides quite carefully for a year or more. I think the media lies to us about Iran because it supports the Palestinians. I think the 2008 election was fair and I think Iran has no nuclear weapons program. The green protesters were a [...]

Diane, I will probably get shot down for this but IMHO there is quite a lot in Osho’s discourses about choicelessness, choiceless awareness, also living without the will, living without desires for the future. He talks of “being a hollow bamboo.” To explain this, it is helpful to give an example of wilful behaviour. I [...]

I must say I am deeply suspicious of NATO motives in Libya. Possibly the real motives are 1. To acquire Libya’s oil. 2. To encourage other OPEC countries to continue to demand dollars for oil. Libya may have been trading oil for gold. If OPEC countries “denominate” oil sales in dollars, the USA can get [...]

But do we know how many of those people were visiting the Pune resort?
Pune is a major educational centre attracting many foreign students.

alokjohn posted on the forum topic Sannyasins follow Fritz Perls and est, not Osho. in the group Sannyasin's minds: 12 years, 12 months ago
@ Sannyasnews… I think Californian materialism, whether of the EST or Esalen variety, informs the minds of many Western sannyasins. I often spend time with people who have no connection with Osho, and they often seem less materialistic than sannyasins. If you went along to institutions that represent millions of Brits, such as the Tory [...]

Lokesh said “Osho wanted his sannyasins to make their own way in the world and did not want them to become in any way dependent on government handouts…signing on for unemployment benefit etc. ” Are you sure about this? Can you find it in discourse? Maybe the various Moms interpreted Osho in this way to [...]

They have a group in Pune called “Remembering the forgotten language of the body” or similar. The idea is you can often cure illnesses with the application of a great deal of awareness. From my experience this is true but you really have to work at it. Devageet once said to me “Existence sends you [...]
