‘And our readers on the whole are into discussion, etc.’
Etc. usually wins out.

Sannyasnews Board here:
In future we will acknowledge anything from OshoNews – we have in the past done that often. it seems less relevant with all the mutual sharing that goes on on the web, but if that is what you want we will do it.
Nonetheless Punya please appreciate we are not publishing articles, but creating blogs. And our readers on the whole are into discussion, etc, so they read the stimulus and then the comments as one thing.
Your own site made a decision as I understand it to never blog. Whatever reasons you have for that so be it. But it is a different form of creativity going on here in which within reason everyone can join.

oh and while you’re there Punya, do you know that delivering images and words of truth without reply, unless you do a group by a professionally trained member of the social democracy’s psyched up bourgeoisie, who will ordain what is and isn’t ‘vulnerable’ osho aligned enquiry for collective benefit is a way of self promoting autocracy for the managers of the new class of psycho contortionists of so called rebellion , which patently isn’t.

Ps The ranch was a device for understanding the relationship between babies and bathwater throwing… take a risk…you know old style and have a reply section on what orchestrating other people’s attitudes in safe asylums actually fully means… or should we all wear white and shut up.
A minimum amount of rebelliousness, please.
Thanks,
prem martyn

Parmartha,
I don’t know about what you mean by background, it’s just Sacha Cohen doing his thing.The formula is what you say.. they, the interviewees don’t know its a fake interview.
You may also know that both are of Jewish stock, Cohen being married in orthodox form, how about that for the pusher of limits ? When Ali G says he knows a lot of words like .. spaghetti, camera… then the buzzers should start going off. He played with the fact that despite all of his victims life reality roles, they are so’ in them ‘ that they rarely if ever could hear the inference. Logical rationalist anarchist with anarchic court jester ? The words wet behind the ears and ingenue spring to mind.

Martyn:
What’s the background to the Chomsky vid? I thought he came out of it pretty well, though I suppose the point of the vid is that Chomsky did not know that Al G was a fake interviewer? Please enlighten me!

Here’s a definition of “Homies”
-
“The dudes who ride with you ‘till the motherfuckin’ end.”.

Yeah, it feels like that on SN sometimes. Thanks Lokesh and all you old mates.

Thanks Martyn.
Yes Pari meant a lot to me. I miss him. Basically, even in sannyas his anarchist roots were always refreshingly there – and his sense of theatre which made him such a good “situationalist”.

Punya,
this was a Press Statement originally put out by Oshoworld which we acknowledged in the first post on this string.
A Press statement is universally available to all other press sources, that is the point of it.
Cannot see why we needed to acknowledge you also. You yourselves were simply passing on the Oshoworld statement, as we were.
Maybe you rushed to judgement.

Quite right. Three cheers for Parmartha and all the homies at SN. Big up!
