satyadeva commented on the post, Mindfulness is all about self-help, but does it do anything to change an unjust world, on the site sannyasnews 9 years, 9 months ago
I’m inclined to agree, Alok. Also, anything that begins to introduce people to mastering their minds can’t be altogether a bad thing. Forget ‘religion’, let the individual get his/her act together – first things […]

Perhaps you might care to view Mr Brand in more relaxed mode, with a slower delivery (and for me, consequently more impressive), Lokesh?
I put up such a video at that thread, so it’s there whenever the mood grabs you.

So, Madhu, what actually happened to you in that group that Rajen/Alan presumably led?

“Osho deserves to be known in the world, as much as Buddha, Jesus or Gandhi. Just like they all have lot of positive aspects as well as some negative.”
What are the “negative” aspects of Buddha and Jesus, please, […]

Absolutely spot on again, Shantam.
And, if I may say so, an example to us all (or nearly all) to put aside purely ‘person-al’ concerns in favour of an altogether greater imperative, ie the ‘healing’ of one who […]

Yes indeed, Shantam, that’s a keenly perceptive diagnosis and prescription for the healing that would seem of the utmost urgency at this juncture.
In its present uncertain state, Sannyas can not afford to lose […]

In his article, Shantam says:
“Many times I have been accused at Sannyasnews.com – by allegedly self- proclaimed deep spiritual and elderly seekers (are they really still disciples of Osho?) – how long I will […]

Perhaps you could create and run an ‘Awareness Workshop’, Karima, the topic being ‘Finding Your Inner Shantam, the Royal Road to 21st Century Village Idiocy’? (Don’t forget to ask all participants to bring their […]

A straight and true, even ‘entertaining’ response, Shantam, to a disconcertingly scurrilous post.
Reading your reply I feel a lot more ‘settled’, ‘lighter’, more certain of the ‘real path’, even though it might […]

A less frantic, yet still confrontational version of Mr Brand here in two shortish videos…

Gino Groppi (formerly Prem Rajan), who’ll soon be registering at SN, says:
“Well! He has certainty caused a stir at Sannyas News, I think some are a little rattled that a non-sannyasin could be so everything they […]

No one’s making any high-falutin’ “claim about one’s meditativeness”, Shantam, that’s just your wilful misreading, misinterpretation, as is so often the case with your nonsense, born of […]

My response:
Thing is, RB is a totally addictive personality, he seems incapable of doing things by halves, whether it’s drink, drugs, compulsive sex, whatever…Yet this ‘totality’ can serve him very well […]

A friend of mine, Mr Gino Groppi (formerly Swami Prem Rajan)has this to say about Russell Brand:
“I was taken with him for a while but, after listening to a quite a few interviews I started to get a little tired […]

A good example, Shantam, of believing something for the sake of your convenience.
Not to mention your chronic ignorance about might be called ‘internal matters’:
“Psychopathic tendencies”, eh? Do you know what […]

Some hope, Arpana – haven’t you heard, he doesn’t believe in self-reflection, self-enquiry, self-knowledge and meditation or meditativeness (he thinks they just mean some technique to do for an hour) etc. etc? […]

So what exactly is the ‘problem’ then, Shantam? Why shouldn’t someone from outside the ‘Osho world’ be respected or praised?
If you don’t understand, let me repeat that what he’s been doing is admirable because […]

Shantam, kindly re-read the third paragraph of my post of last night (8.52pm).
(And btw, Osho discourses and meditations are far from the only available and effective means of self-transformation…).

I recommend watching the video, Lokesh, as it comprises extracts from Russell Brand’s comments, it’s not a talk entitled ‘The Awakening of Mankind’ – that’s just a title created by whoever put this together and […]
