“SN thought that this might interest bloggers as a string, and help thinking outside the box about the contouring of enlightened states.”
Firstly, I would like to recommend the forwarding of the above statement […]

“… politics around the world is evolving but not that master’s work who insisted his whole life about change, disruption and evolution.”
As far as the OIMR in Pune is concerned, Shantam, I am pretty much with […]

Looks like I’ve been spotted! Yes, Arpana, I certainly did read a lot of 19th century stuff when I was a lad e.g ‘King Solomon’s Mines’ (Haggard), ‘The Coral Island’ (Ballantyne), etc. etc.
As you have shrewdly […]

Thank you, Madhu, I will deeply reflect on your wise counsel!

It would seem that this topic (Osho’s Will) now garners very little interest and many people (like myself) are bored with the whole issue – thus the lack of response.
It’s time to move on!

Hi Francesco!
Would I be right in thinking that you are the Francesco who did the Osho Therapist Training group in 2003/4, led by Svagito and Tarika?Regards,
Ashok

Hi Shantam!
Now that I have seen his photo I am 99% certain I know him. I am pretty sure he and I were in a group together in Pune at sometime in the period 2002 to 2004.Re your observation on Francesco which […]

I’m sorry to disappoint you on this occasion, Arpana, but no, I’m not a recent convert. In fact, according to my dear darling mater, I took naturally to practising a blunt and impolite approach from a very early […]

Yes, thank you Arpana, for supplying a very interesting and pertinent article as a follow-on to my piece.

Yes indeed, my dearest Madhu!
I couldn’t agree more. Once again it would seem I have managed to bring out the best in him, and therefore I think I deserve some gratitude and recognition for my own personal […]

“…then this impasse can dissolve very quickly.”
To be honest, SD, old chap, I think you might be being a tad overly-optimistic here. Or to put it another way, more in keeping with the guidelines afforded by […]

To Vedant S:
‘Twas I, I think, in response to Lokesh, that used the word ‘infallible’, and to be precise, the exact words used were ‘less than infallible’.

“but they were totally in awe of him”
Was that healthy?

ashok commented on the post, Maharishi/Osho, on the site sannyasnews 8 years, 7 months ago
So, would that mean in your opinion, that a ‘real’ master would not exhibit traits such as naivety?
It might be useful, SD, to define here what you mean exactly by a ‘real’ master.
Bearing in mind, of course, […]

“takes some bottle too”
Certainly looks that way, doesn’t it? Osho waltzing in and playing the polemical ‘cat amongst the pigeons’, right in the heart of the competition’s camp! A risky venture in many […]

ashok commented on the post, Maharishi/Osho, on the site sannyasnews 8 years, 7 months ago
Very interesting, SD! What you say, to my mind, brings up the questions of:
What were the Maharishi’s motives when he invited Osho in then?
P’haps, very innocent and inexperienced in the ways of marketing, […]

Well, yes – an elderly, very likeable Japanese lady who, it seems, could not speak English! Furthermore, it doesn’t appear as if she and Osho, at some point, debated some weighty spiritual/philosophical issue […]

“In Osho’s case, no master would have come visit”
Were any other masters/teachers/gurus ever given the chance?
