		<description><![CDATA[@SD,SS &amp; Tan:

Interesting reactions! They all look like &#039;More Glimpses from a Golden Childhood&#039;, to me!

Oh, the innocence of it all, but then silly me, I was forgetting, &#039;real&#039; masters need flocks to survive, don&#039;t they?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You sound more like a tabloid journalist than a sannyasin, Ashok!

Why is it so surprising that Osho should take the opportunity to publicly criticise Maharishi, an obviously inferior teacher, to make certain things crystal clear to present and future &#039;seekers&#039;, or at least to get people &#039;thinking&#039;, giving them a new, more profound perspective? I&#039;d be more surprised if he&#039;d remained silent in those circumstances.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;I didn´t and I don´t ´consider´ this&quot; - Kavita, sorry that ´juicy´ is so misunaderstandable.

Fact is that you did and do really hit a point, like golfers catching the goal with one stroke.
And sometimes when that happens, I just know it and my heart (also physically) answered (is answering).

Otherwise, what you mentioned, expressed  essentially, is really worth a thread-topic here, isn´t it?

Madhu

P.S:
Just look how it goes on and on and on...such a pity.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Uh oh! Slagging off the competition!
For some years I worked in S&amp;M (Sales &amp;,Marketing), and we were always told to never talk the opposition down directly, as this often backfired! Just talk positively about what you&#039;ve got to sell was the watch-phrase!

A self-congratulatory piece from Osho - one of several in which he builds himself up. What was the motive behind that, I wonder? Desperation to get hold of some rich disciples who would supply him with the dosh he needed for his avarice e.g. shiny, sparkly watches and limousine cars? Or was there some deep-seated insecurity below it all e.g. low self-esteem? People who feel bad about themselves are often prone to boasting and a little bit of exaggeration, aren&#039;t they?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When trying to weigh up the merits of various &#039;Masters&#039; it&#039;s worth bearing in mind what Zen says about them selling water by the river.

So the question really is: &#039;Who is the best salesman?&#039;

For me anyway, Bhagwan wins hands down.]]></description>
