Last time I visited Poona it was 1989. It was called ‘ashram’ then, or Osho Commune International.
One thing I have learnt, though, is there is no need to visit any place of pilgrimage to find Osho. His presence […]

I have been visiting India for many years, on and off.

No doubt Poona One and Two communes were a great magnet to young seekers, and a place for shedding chains, getting it all out, and finding love, silence, songs and celebration.
Poona Three was still buzzing in […]

Shall we compare our elements to see if our signs are in the same position, Madhu?
My sun is Sagittarius, can you tell me your fire sun please? Also, my ascendant is fire, Leo. Please do share your air ascendant.

How about we give our elements and Shantam or anyone else has to guess the combination of signs.
I am fire sun + fire ascendant + earth moon.

It’s incredible, and unusual.
To actually find a newspaper article that doesn`t contain the kind of distortions and dross that you just described `public orgies` `The Bhagwan` having sex with `dozens of hot young […] -

Both Amrito and Jayesh seem to have fate on their side in the longevity stakes.
Whilst Amrito survived being regularly poisoned in his food over the period of a year by Sheela and her gang at the Ranch, and […]

Yes, Veet, Veeresh was quite a capable guy and a party animal. I have also known people whom he helped to leave their heroin habit behind.
Fantastic musician too. It’s a shame because some of his older stuff, […]

Whilst Christian monks buggered each other and strived for union with God for years in the monasteries, several sannyasins have also been imprisoned and had powerful awakenings, but unlike the monks they then went […]

The thing about advaita is it can be very effective if read from a book, Satyam Nadeen had an awakening in prison whilst reading lots of Ramesh Balsekar.
I’ve got a couple of Nadeen’s books and they are a good […]
