I watched the whole series. There are major gaps. No mention of Osho being asked to sign in as “David Washington” in a jail in Oklahoma. No mention of Osho being poisoned with thallium while in jail or toxicology […]

“Don’t make enlightenment a desire; otherwise you will go on missing. What I suggest to you is, forget about enlightenment. It has nothing to do with you, you will never see it; it happens when you are not.

“What is the point of having same type of car in multiple numbers as one can drive only one car at a time?” (Kusum).
Investment trust?

My understanding is the word ‘tantra’ just means method, as in ‘Vigyan Bhairav Tantra: Index of 112 Meditation techniques’.
Etymology:

“This life I call a religious life. It has no principles, it has no discipline, it has no laws.” (No-Thought for the Day ® via Shantam).
