SS, actually ‘My dance is complete’ film I had seen on video during my early sannyas days but had forgotten the title, but was good to see it again. Thanks anyway.

Ma Yoga Laxmi was like a rolling ball of orange sannyas energy, small but willing and able to serve the master.

In her Mahalaxmi form, she appears as a cute teddy bear with four arms, one carrying a mace and one carrying a sword, one carrying Osho`s personal white towel, and one carrying the Book of the Secrets.

She is seated on a pink lotus.
Her attributes are love and devotion.

Thanks, Kavita, for that.

I tried to reply to you on the last thread but the reply buttons have disappeared.

Actually, I didn`t think that ‘My dance is complete’ film was really that much to write home about. I`m sure there are more interesting Osho video documentaries around somewhere.

Laxmi sported a short, cropped hair, unusual for Indian women, especially from that era, and that unusual haircut suggests an elite or wealthy background to the little lassie.

Well, Satchit, if sannyas & tranformation is dropped, then I guess there is no need for meditation!

Laxmi was almost as old as Osho so naturally she was more mature, sensible & motherly. Also she had lot of support from some businessmen from Bombay as well. She certainly enjoyed her power position.

Kavita, you sound a bit cynical in my ear.

I always thought “Meditate!” is suggestion number 1.

I have still other suggestions in my pocket, maybe you like them more:
Drop all this sannyas and transformation nonsense! How is that?

That is best suggestion most of the sannyasins can ever give/have given! Thanks anyway.
