Lokesh,
Sometimes it can be difficult to tell whose fully enlightened or not.
Last year I realised that many of the great masters of the twentieth century, who many had regarded as “the real deal”, had one thing […] -

You clearly have some doubts over whether Osho was “fully enlightened” or perhaps not so enlightened as he thought he was, Lokesh.
Sri Aurobindo used to talk about
an “Intermediate Zone”, refering to a […] -

I think that anyone must be pretty foolish in a continuing interest in following a guru who wen’t from being ‘fully enlightened’ in their eyes, the perfect master , to someone who literally became lost in […]

I don’t think I’ve seen “The Big White”, Vartan. Are you talking about “Jaws”?
The one that I like is “The Dead Poets Society.”
There isn’t snow during the whole film, just during some of the winter scenes. -

Osho spoke these words in “Notes of a Madman”, in 1984:
“Once you are aware, the body starts losing its grip over the consciousness. Once you are aware, you are no more of this world. That is why the awakened […]

Well I think I know the centre that your’e on about Tan. I was a bit dissapointed when I visited the place, it was freezin cold for a start, and when it was dinner time I was kind of expecting a Shaman wearing […]

Thanks, Madhu, the films look interesting, maybe I`ll check them out some time.
As far as shamans are concerned, I feel that they had their place amongst tribal peoples, as healers, and holder`s of ancient […] -

Osho called in Shiva(Hugh Milne), to take the photo’s of him in the dental chair, didn’t he?
Who left the ranch soon afterwards.Osho stated that stopping talking for a few years gop rid of many people who […]

It is not so simple, Prem.
Rolex watches and Rollers might put people off but many ‘new-agers’, and spiritual seekers are very fond of the native americans and other tribal peoples and will look to them for […] -

Ah yes, I remember hearing about that eskimo Osho centre, Tan.
Wasn’t that the one that was rumoured to be a bit outrageous , with lots of nose-rubbing going on, dynamic meditation happening in the snow, and […] -

Funny, Frank, I had exactly the same thought about the Inuit rubbing noses instead of kissing earlier today, and how Osho may have been in favour of this idea during his ‘safe sex’ stage on the Ranch.
Didn’t he […]

That was actually from an old cheech & chong record which I used to listen to with friends years ago when I was a bit of a stoner.

Hmm,
It seems that Osho was hinting at some esoteric secret with wearing this style of `Inuit` hat.
The question is… well what the f*** was it?
Did Osho wish to display his love of the Eskimo people?
Had […] -

Martyn,
Westerners may find Shailendra and the other members of the trio wearing the same style hats as Osho very funny, aha ha.
But in India for a very long time, disciples of masters have been following the […] -

I have watched the video and I cannot see what the problem is.
Perhaps the people at OIF don`t like it, but what right does that give them to pull the video channel down?
