Lokesh, I never had darshan with Osho. I was not well enough to travel to Pune 1, but I was also very scared of his light and quite scared of the Pune 1 people. I only saw him from the back of Buddha Hall some dozen or so times just before his death. He did [...]

I liked Bubbie and Martyn. With the new system the person who starts a group can ban them in one group or delete a single post. I thought Martyn had a lot to say if you read between the lines. If they are banned I think they should be unbanned. The editor has a thing [...]

Garimo wrote “Makes me wonder what you might consider the symptoms or expressions of materialistic religion to look like.” Lying or being reckless with the truth to survive or make money, for example. There was a sannyasin lady who took a course in nutritional medicine. She would say brazenly “All illnesses can be cured with [...]

It seems that I am one of the few people who resonate to the topic title. In ‘I am the Gate.’ Osho says the prevalent religions now in the West come from Freud, Darwin, Marx. I would add Rousseau to that list ‘To be natural is to be good.’ So my assertion is many sannyasins [...]

Garimo, possibly it is like this… Egypt may well have free elections. There are 80 million Egyptians. Most are poor. They could easily vote for an Islamic state, or semi-Islamic state. Peace treaty with Israel torn up. Increased threat to israel. So lets conquer Libya, adjacent to Egypt, stick a few military bases there to [...]

Obviously what I wrote does not apply to all sannyasins. But it is a funny old movement to say the least.

I think Osho or his organisation only purchased a few of the Rolls Royces. As far as I know nearly all were given to him by lovers/admirers. “Osho preached enjoyment of life, relaxation and floating with the river.” This is true. But I do not think it will help you make money. Try talking about [...]
