swamishanti commented on the post, Osho in Fiction: Lokesh asks a question, on the site sannyasnews 6 years, 2 months ago
There is no reason why an unenlightend person can’t become enlightened without already being addicted to any substance.
Sooner or later a heroin addict will become enlightened, I don’t see any reason why not. […]

Yes, I see. But I don’t think anyone at the funeral pyre or around that time actually had the idea of the nitrous oxide being a cause of poisoning.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought that that theory came […]

Ma Satya Bharti, after she left the Ranch and dropped sannyas, recalls a telephone conversation she had with Deeksha, the Italian Ma who also left the Ranch and grew disillusioned with Sannyas, who told her that […]

Lokesh, you mention that poisoning with Thallium was suspected to be to the cause of death, but I think that you should mention that Radiation was the other major theory. Osho had a lot of pain in the right side […]

I don’t see Vivek as being portrayed here as you suggest.
Not that there is anything wrong with a “common” woman, or asking for sex, but I think the recording mentioned Vivek actually states, “You never make […]

I don’t know where Tim Guest, author of ‘My Life in Orange’, read the story of that tape.
Sheela did have a recording operation on the Ranch and did make many tapes, and personally I don’t doubt that particular […]

I just looked into Maitreya’s book, ‘Unity’, for the first time in over ten years and came across this:
“Everyone can benefit from tantric exercises but rarely do they transform sex energy into enlightenment. […]

Sexual energy from enlightened ones may also be useful for spiritual growth.
I remember a lady recalling on this site once how Maitreya Ishwara told her over lunch:
“If you have sex with me, you can get […] -

Well, not really, no.
If the reports from those who left the Mexican commune are accurate, Ozen had people inviting girls on facebook to come and sleep with him, and he was also very possessive of one girl who […] -

Osho became surrounded by young women sometime in the early 70s in his Woodlands apartment in Bombay. Most of them would have wanted to have some fun with him and I guess he granted a few lucky ones their wish. […]

I remember your tales of the streetstalking gangs and the nazi skinhead thugs who spat on you, and your neighbourhood just sounded awful.
Unless, of course, there is something you love about it.
There is a […]

Apparently, Vivek also dated Amrito for a while on the Ranch, so Jayesh wasn’t her only lover after Osho. This I remember from one of the books from the Lao-Tzu house crew.
One got the impression that Osho had […]

Was that contemporary master Barry Long, by any chance?
And if so, can you tell what the talk was, if it is recorded? -

Madhu, I wonder whether you are yourself somehow identifying and sympathising with the woman in the story, as if it were some reflection of how you perceive your relationship with your own close neighbours, who […]

Yes, I did indeed talk to the woman myself, Madhu, and was living so close to her that I was probably the first one to realise some strange goings-on.
In fact, we were on friendly terms at one point until she […]

swamishanti commented on the post, “Osho” Leela ?, on the site sannyasnews 6 years, 3 months ago
Leela was involved with and inspired by Veeresh, and the Inner Circle always held Veeresh in high regard.
So perhaps Veeresh pulled some strings somewhere and helped to get the ‘Osho’ back.
Also, I heard Shyam […]

I heard that they were told to stop using the name ‘Osho Leela’ and for a while called themselves ‘Leela’.
I wonder how they got the ‘Osho’ back. -

This website is very pro-Resort .
It reccomends the midweek meditation but does not seem very favourable towards Osho Leela:https://www.osho-meditation-bristol.co.uk/newcomers-osho-overview/
