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

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 […]

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).

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.

I lived in England so long I like ‘Monty Python’ more than André van Duin! And you’re right, I do have a beard…bit of a love-hate relationship…occasionally I shave it off, only to grow it again.

Very true, Lokesh. Real spiritual exploration confronts you with a load of difficult questions: What if you lose something essential? What if you end up crippling your spiritual self? The stakes become a lot […]

I just wanted to add this quote from Osho…
“Q: Are you celibate?
A: No, why should I be? I am just natural, why should I be unnatural? If you want to meet celibates you go to a Catholic monastery, and you will […] -

Oh dear. I may be your kryptonite. I’m a very unfun, straightforward kind of person. Very little humour.

Sometimes it is fun though, to talk to sannyasins who you do not know. It’s like taking half of a story about yourself, putting it into the Universal Semi-Random Story Generator ™ and watching an […]

Swami Bhorat as a parody is coming dangerously close to being a true portrait these days…He is obviously becoming a respected member of the community.

@frank who said: “but it does sound self-serving, exploitative and not very pleasant for the girls.”
Yeah…and can you trust a guru who displays these properties to guide you spiritually? That for me is the key […]

@Lokesh, who quoted Osho saying, “blessed is the sannyasin who can trust me without bothering about my statements or my actions.”
I’d say to that, actions speak louder than words, words speak louder than thought. […]

Thanks, Garima, that’s pretty good advice. Some time ago I found a quote by Basho, which said, “Do not follow in the footsteps of the wise; instead, seek what they sought.” I liked it, it speaks to not following […]

I don’t know if I will ever say goodbye to him, exactly. He was a big part of my childhood. But trust him? Certainly I will look a lot closer at what he says, and test his teachings far more carefully.

@swami anand anubodh, who wrote, “I absorbed much from Osho that I found to be useful.”
That is certainly true, a lot of what Osho said was original, refreshing, and useful. I won’t dispute that, and I am […]

It *is* porn though. It may be stone rather than explicit video but in essence it is no different.
