A homophobic closeted homosexual is a new one for me. It certainly must be a weird one to live with.

The power of homophobia is such that homosexual individuals often feel culturally compelled to misrepresent […]

Yeah, thanks for taking the time to respond, NP. Once upon a time, it was perhaps seen by some as cutting-edge. I no longer see it like that. Now it has become old Osho hat.

Take care, man, I know you mean well.

“Tricky” my boonga-boonga. It’s just nonsense for dummies who don’t know any better.

Anyway, giving you the benefit of the doubt, how about you put that quote in context? I’ll bet you don’t…not now that you are […]

If nothing else, a wee Osho quote can come in handy. Unfortunatrly this particular Osho quote is not exactly a gold nugget. More like a piece of doggie doo doo. NP, are you really so underdeveloped that this kind […]

Awww, right, NP, you basically want deeper, more spiritual content in the writer’s comments. A good example of which you delivered quite recently:
“Seaside cafes also have vastly improved their coffee offerings, […]

Overintellectualization is a psychological defence mechanism in which a person overthinks and overanalyzes a situation, often to avoid or deny their own emotions or feelings. This can manifest in various ways, […]

Gasbag
A person who speaks at too great a length, saying little of value and often with an air of pretentious authority.

NP, you write, “I don’t see it as you do, as some lost golden age.”
That sounds ridiculous to me. A golden age of SN? Basically, all I said was that SN used to be a lot more fun. This is a fact as far as I am […]

SN shrouded in cosmic pessimism? I do not view the situation on this forum like that at all.

What has changed over the years is that all of the good commentators have left. Once upon a time, the site hosted a lot […]

NP delivers an Osho quote that concludes, “If you move on any path, any methodology and it brings joy to you, more sensitivity, more watchfulness and gives a feeling of immense well-being – this is the only […]

In the end, we must figure things out for ourselves.

‘From Sex to Superconsciousness’ was a winning ticket for Osho in the guru stakes. Hardly surprising in a sexually repressed country like India. That said, […]

Osho says, “Sex becomes perverted; it starts finding ways from the back door.”
Yes, Osho is approaching the subject from a truly existential level.
Osho continues, “The moment you start rising up in your […]

It was a big house with extensive grounds.

Psychic cross-contamination? That can be viewed from multiple perspectives. Do you think hundreds of thousands of acid trippers were worried about psychic […]

Cool, NP. An old friend of mine was at the centre of the Ayahuasca scene for several years in Ibiza. On occasion, a hundred people drank the brew together at their house. Various shamans from South America […]

Once again, NP finds something ‘interesting’, which means he is not fully engaged with the subject. You will never go beyond being interested in ayahuasca until you have actually tried it. No amount of book […]

Hi NP, that’s all very well, but I am no wiser as to what your point is. Brownie points? I’ve no idea.

As for my punctuation, standard procedure with nothing underhanded. Truth is, I have not a clue what you are […]

NP writes, “A lot of commentators here “shoot from the hip” with their comments, without living in my mind with my concerns.”

Duh? How can anyone live in another person’s mind, or live in their concerns? It is […]

When it all boils down, who is Sarlo, and what credentials does he have to rate anyone? Answer~ Sarlo is nobody special and he has no credentials.

Reading this, NP, makes me wonder who it is that believes they are letting go. Letting go is all well and good, but what you are doing sounds like the spiritual ego at play. You conclude that you are busy being in […]
