    Arpana, no, had nothing to do with him. I just hate dishonesty and exploitation of vulnerable people.

    While I am about it what about Parmartha’s statements like “Most sannyasins agree Osho took vast amount of nitrous oxide.”

    Did Parmartha conduct a representative survey of the world’s sannyasins to gain […]

    Alok, you look at things like this from a rather Calvinist perspective.
    1) Sleeping with young men and women of one day less than 16 or one day more, dont you think this is a bit of an arbitrary distinction. Our […]

    If he did change his name to Alan Lowen because he thought it was good for business, then if anyone paid for a group or session because they thought the group or session was run by the creator of bioenergetics, […]

    P,
    “Alan Lowen was Rajen’s original name before he took sannyas as far as I know.”

    You don’t think it is reasonable to be suspicious? Too much of a coincidence for me! At that time you could change your […]

    Alok,
    Alan Lowen was Rajen’s original name before he took sannyas as far as I know.
    On therapist Teertha and Ko Hsuan I have heard these sort of things discussed a fair amount over the years so I dont think it […]

    On another site someone accused Teertha of paedophilia. The reaction was “This is only hearsay; you must not defame the man unless you have first hand evidence.”

    There was also a suggestion of paedophilia […]

    If there was a spy, are there any other ways we can identify him or her?

    Well, there might be a couple more signs to look for.

    First the spy would be under instructions to spread disinformation about Osho’s […]

    Not only would a spy avoid dynamic, but he or she would avoid most meditations and groups. Osho’s work is designed to make you open and vulnerable and obviously this is the last thing a spy wants. There is […]

    Dharmen, it is true that for years prior to my sannyas (’86), and for years after, I was terrified of dynamic and avoided it. However I did eventually get into it, mainly at home and occasionally at Susann’s. […]

    Correct me if I’m wrong and i may well be, but do you not avoid dynamic ’like the plague’. Come on Alok, own up, you’ve been a spy all along.

    What sort of information would the spy collect? Some of the work of MI5 is collecting low-level intelligence just in case it is needed in the future. So, for example, details of sannyasins would be […]

    So Mahesh bhatt a popular bollywood director is coming up with his new flick called “jism-2″ (can be roughly translated as “Body” in english but in an “erotic” tone)
