Yeah, Frank, good points.
I remember Sheela confronting Osho on a live TV interview saying, more or less, ‘Come on, tell them the truth. Tell them you are an ordinary man.’
As it has turned out, nobody at the […] -

I say, NP, hold your horses. There is no bromance going on. A simple turning of a page and perhaps a new, more authentic chapter. Life is full of surprises. By Jove!

NP @28 May, 8.10h
If I have caught the details correctly Osho was invited to the commune. And he accepted the invitation under the precondition of being able to do things 100% in his way, to have free reign of […]

Osho`s late night chakra inspection sessions and the abuse allegations have to be separated to some degree, at least for the fact that the latter stories clearly cross boundaries of legality that the former most […]

Ooh, is there a bit of a Satchit-Lokesh reconciliation bromance brewing?

Hi, Satchit,
Thanks for your sincere response. For me it is one of the best comments you have posted on SN because it gives a sense of who is behind the words.
Just for the record I am not aggressive in real […]

Thank you for your long response, Lokesh.
One reason that I write short stuff is certainly because I am not a native speaker.
All these idioms, slang expressions, takes too much effort to always check the […]

Just doing something without thinking left and right and expecting something out of it can imo also be quite an egoless action:
Making spaghetti for the 9 year-old to come home from school.
Taking out the pots, […] -

But the thing is, Osho was ultimately responsible, it was his commune, built after his vision. I don’t think you can absolve him completely because he delegated some of that responsibility. It was clear that if he […]

Gezelligheid, good old fashioned fun. I can dig it.

Satchit, although your response is a bit of a sad one, at least it sounds real, human. Osho was big on authenticity, and this is my biggest criticism of what you write on SN. It is not genuine. It is copied.
I […]

Yes, it was a failure of all of those in charge. But it’s also a problem when you have a new town being created and an inexperienced police force who sometimes turn a blind eye towards the law of the land. Sex […]

I think Johnny Jordaan is great, he just oozes gezelligheid (wonderful untranslatable word meaning something like coziness by a fireplace with friends having a good time).

As far as I understand – after reading comments regarding sexual acts with children and what should have been done about it – the role Bhagwan/Osho wanted to play was not one of a manager of commune affairs.
But […]

Lokesh, you are the better storyteller than me.
And you live an excited life on your hippy-island.
My life is very ordinary.
Reading Osho books is for me long time gone.
I just remembered from your […]

Johnny Jordaan, of course. You know the dead guy who has a bronze sculpture of his noggin in Amsterdam’s Elandsgracht. There’s a flower box in my window…la la la and all that shit.

Now would you mean Johnnie Jordan or Johnny Jordaan?
I have a decent but sadly undeveloped singing voice, I meant to get some singing lessons a few years ago but then the pandemic struck and singing was out.

Satchit, if I wished to impress anything upon you it would be that you would be more interesting if you tried speaking from your own life, instead of repeating stuff you have read in books.
As an example, instead […]
