		<description><![CDATA[Perfectly correct, Premprem!

It is true that there is no hard evidence!
But, if you look at the photo in the shower, it appears that the Swami Rajneesh is attempting to make evidence hard, but whether it is hard or not is difficult to tell!

Certainly, the dignified silence of Dhyan Raj and Mini Kang speaks volumes for the truth! Not for them to rabidly and violently denounce their enemies as time has clearly shown!

Now it is down to the like of Dhy...er...Premprem to give utterly impartial judgment from people with absolutely no vested interest or bias!

What could possibly be wrong with consensual sex between a 55 year-old man with an 18 year-old in his private jungle fiefdom?

The western baboons do not realise that Kevin Spacey and Harvey Weinstein are disciples of mighty Bhorat!

		<description><![CDATA[I can speak for myself as I have not been a victim and have enjoyed my friendship with Rajneesh when he was in Poona, we have shared a very loving &amp; caring equation.

We were friends on Facebook till 2013 or so but after I quit FB there has been no communication except for here on SN few years ago. 

Anyway, guess we all have to go through our journey and are responsible for it in all ways. 

I would still say All the Best to him and his team for having a dream and going full on towards it!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I could never stand Rajneesh myself, whether he be enlightened or not, but ok, it&#039;s good to be sceptical about such stories, the Skype texts (where he appears like a love-sick teenager threatening to end the commune, saying he&#039;ll have a heart attack if the girl leaves him - such emotional blackmail not quite what one would expect from a spiritual teacher!) and the photos could be fakes, tales of gratuitous violence could be exaggerated or even lies, likewise accusations of theft, murder and other evils, and he has many enemies, as you say, Premprem. 

But if it&#039;s true that such previously apparently blindly devoted disciples like Mini Kang (his secretary) and Dhyan Raj* became seriously disillusioned and left the scene then I suggest on the balance of probabilities something is seriously amiss out there (to put it mildly).

Let&#039;s hope Dhyan Raj responds to Parmartha&#039;s email.

*See their totally confident posts, arrogantly dismissive of any criticism of Rajneesh of a few years ago, here at SN.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If the communications presented in the link are accurate, then Ozen has admitted to the revenge porn - which is a form of abuse in itself. There are also parts where he threatens the girl who is running away with black magic - I remember someone mentioning that they had heard that Brian had already threatened some in Dharamsala with black magic some years ago.

All sounds dodgy and juvenile .

		<description><![CDATA[Cui prodest?

Rajneesh has many enemies, one of which is the OIF. 

Remember Shiva the Bodyguard who wrote a book about Osho, &#039;Bhagwan, the God that Failed&#039;, stating that Osho has sex with many women? 

Wasn&#039;t the Oregon Ranch also a &quot;slave labour&quot; camp where people worked 14 hours a day?

Wherever there is a mystic school, there will always be these types of accusations

I also looked at Anant Akash&#039;s website. The whole story and website sounds a little fishy, the photos look like they were photoshopped. The way they write their stories, Akash and Dao sound like very immature people, petty and vindictive.

Just for the record: I do not think Rajneesh is enlightened, and I saw most of his disciples are a bit naive, immature. However, the whole story and the way it is presented on Akash&#039;s website is ridiculous.

Maybe he had sex with a girl, so what, if it was consensual? Sannyasins getting outraged about someone having consensual sex. What are you? Catholics?

I have seen worse things in Osho centres, therapists propositioning girls for a threesome with their girlfriends - and no one bats an eyelid. 

But the way this relationship is presented on the website in the &quot;evidence&quot; sounds more like a creation of the minds of the persons who created the website, rather than something typical Rajneesh would do. It just doesn&#039;t fit. 

I am completely open-minded and waiting for some &#039;hard evidence&#039; to come up. 

However, the photo evidence of Rajneesh and Myrthle having sex - really looks like a photoshop. They took a porno couple and photoshopped Rajneesh&#039;s face onto the picture. Myrthle&#039;s face is blurred on the pictures, so you don&#039;t even know if it is her. 

So they had sex, so what? Revenge porn? Ok, I want to see some hard evidence.

Sounds like a hit job, a smear job, created by a very sick mind - and Rajneesh, not enlightened, this is true, but he doesn&#039;t sound nearly as deranged as this story would want you to believe. 

So the verdict is for now, &#039;Shiva, the God that Failed&#039; - unless there is some real hard evidence. Show us the pictures or the video. 

A lot of people want to see Rajneesh&#039;s downfall, including the OIF. 
Including some people on this forum who support the OIF and are drooling right now at the idea that Rajneesh will be discredited.

Stuff like this goes with the territory. As soon as someone declares himself enlightened - smear campaigns will be waged.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The only way Brian Rajneesh is connected to the original content of this string would be if there is or has been sexual abuse in his commune, and whether it is genuinely authenticated. 

The problem here could be similar to the historical ashrams/communes of Osho. There were certainly no exclusion policies then, and often people who were there were totally unsuitable for any acquaintance with tantra. I don&#039;t think it is difficult just to go and do a group at Brian Rajneesh&#039;s place. 

As far as I know no-one here has been to the Brian Rajneesh commune, so it is all technically hearsay, and we all know how dangerous that can be.

Like Lokesh, I have heard of people going there and finding the energy fine and the place had a good vibe. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hi sannyasnews team, hi regulars on the caravanserai who have already responded. 

Wilhelm Reich spoke on the ´emotional plague´ and that´s what I&#039;m reminded of when reading all of this, this awful, painfully awesome article and the awful male responses too. The article indeed appeared in the Huffington Post (I didn´t believe that first-hand, but then checked it, checked as well the website of the British lady who, besides claiming to be a journalist, group facilitator, spiritual facilitator etc. has indeed such a style to write and has her readers and clients in the UK).
 
What I know is that by synchronicity (with the article) the media flashmob kind of hype around the #METOO movement on facebook and other social networks, which have claims too to give birth to a new feminism (Holly-Bollywood-style) is already dimming down.

Thousands and thousands of women spoke out (viral and otherwise) about male abusers, perpetrators, rapists and perverted male chauvinists happening in private spaces, in work spaces and increasing numbers indeed in  the public market places too.

Yes, there is no way, obviously, to hinder anybody, neither female nor male, to kind of quote in a mish-mush way some of Osho´s insights in a single sentence - like this stance in the end (which came supposedly out of His talks about the Lao Tzu verses).

Yes, there may be a way to meet each other (gender-wise) with more awareness and respect; yet I more than suspect this does function via loading more crap up to the already existing one, and I thoroughly guess does NOT function via installing ´Heroes´and ´Heroines´, the mean and sinister Antipodes to such; the latter version, some here seem unfortunately be quite identified with, which is simply an allergic re-action and nothing much else.
