    samarpan commented on the post, The Psychology of a Wounded Sikh and Sannyasin, on the site     sannyasnews 4 months, 1 week ago

    I just read a book which seems relevant.

    ‘BLISS OUT’ by Francesco Gatti

    https://book.blissout.co/get-it

    This year I am celebrating 40th neo-sannyas birthday. Perfectly happily!

    “It is your decision. Always […]

    RE: Shantam’ 5 Euros

    Anand Yogi told me that evil British colonizers picked the name ‘Osho’ and our master, being a choiceless-choice-go-with-the-flow kind of guy accepted the name ‘Osho’, explaining that His new […]

    “I talked with him many times, sat close to him many times to the point of being very familiar with the scent of the perfumed balm he wore. I often wonder how people became involved with Osho minus such […]

    samarpan commented on the post, “If it takes a million years….”, on the site     sannyasnews 5 months, 2 weeks ago

    Thank you, Shantam. I looked up “organic” in the OED (3rd edition, September 2004) and found a lot of different definitions. Definition 6a is the one that seems to fit for “organic spirituality”…Definition 6a […]

    samarpan commented on the post, The Pune Property and the Battle for the Soul of Neo-Sannyas, on the site     sannyasnews 1 year, 1 month ago

    Whatever happens to the property I think Osho is set to become the next great religious figure in history, like Buddha and Jesus. This is inevitable because Osho programmed a kind of serial deployment of his […]

    Frank, what do you mean by the word “meditation”?

    samarpan commented on the post, The Ring Of Truth?, on the site     sannyasnews 1 year, 5 months ago

    This has a ring of truth, from an interview with Mominatu.

    Question:
    “Finally, what are the books, movies and music that have fed you, that have centered you during this time?”

    Answer:
    “Wow. That’s a […]

    samarpan commented on the post, The End Of Sannyas News?, on the site     sannyasnews 1 year, 7 months ago

    Putting this site on life support is not dignified. When Parmartha died I suggested letting SannyasNews die. Parmartha had dignity. He did not beg.

    All things born will die (Alfred Lord Tennyson). It is time […]

    samarpan commented on the post, “Want to Really Live in the Present? Embrace Life’s Nasty Bits, Too”, on the site     sannyasnews 1 year, 8 months ago

    Great title for Joan’s latest book: ‘Death: The End of Self-Improvement’.

    I came across this recently:

    “We’re obviously in a wonky period now and it might be awhile before things stabilize again. Whether or not […]

    samarpan commented on the post, This Thing Called Enlightenment, on the site     sannyasnews 1 year, 10 months ago

    Why not live the present moment fully and simply enjoy life? Each breath is a gift. Why talk about “enlightenment”? Maybe because the ego makes you think enlightenment is somehow special?

    Fuggedaboutit.

    “Don’t […]

    samarpan commented on the post, “Avoidance in Holy Drag” – Robert A. Masters on Spiritual Bypassing, on the site     sannyasnews 1 year, 11 months ago

    Lokesh says, “Phew, glad I am not a spiritual seeker. What a relief.”

    I was once not interested in awakening. I didn’t even know I was asleep, so no need for spiritual seeking. Then I was interested in spiritual […]

    samarpan commented on the post, “Avoidance in Holy Drag” – Robert A. Masters on Spiritual Bypassing, on the site     sannyasnews 1 year, 11 months ago

    Recent research indicates spiritual bypassing may be useful:

    “The authors collected a sample (783 participants) from the general population and tested a parallel mediation model in which 2 factors of spiritual […]

    Thank you, Klaus. This fellow, Osho, is brilliant, a Master of Masters.

    Thanks for sharing this of Pune One. My experience of Pune Two was equally chainless. 38 years of neo-Sannyas…shedding chains with each breath. Ahhh, This!

    Thank you, Madhu, for your beautiful nature-inspired messages! Sun is not shining here but drizzly overcast days have their own intimate beauty.

    Many take nature (or Nature) as their satsang-giver. I have never […]
