SS,
I had always looked at the Rolls Royces and the watches as a form of pre-Internet advertisement.
In 2023, we have YouTube, Facebook, and all manner of ways to get our message out.
In 1980, no such luck, so […]

Beloved Ma Deva Uma:
What a wonderful life you have lived thus far. In many ways you are like a mystic rose. In the beginning you were just a bud, closed to the world, not fully yourself yet, not fully […]

Dear NP,
Your article absolutely resonated with me. Unlike many of you here, I was born a little too late to sit with the Master. Instead my whole experience is through his books, audio tapes, and videos – […]

NP,
From 2005-2006 I left America and went to Shanghai, China, primarily to learn Buddhism from what I felt were more genuine sources than anyone in America. What I found was, like you said, it was definitely […]

NP & Lokesh,
Thank you for your replies. It’s thoughtful responses like these which keep me coming back to SN.

I…really wish I did not just see that. But I am better off knowing than not knowing.

NP, after seeing the video Lokesh posted, I was curious if Sam Harris ever made a commentary about Osho.
I’m fairly familiar with Sam Harris from his other political work, his anti-religious commentary, and his […]

Lokesh,
From what I have read/heard (and yes, to NP’s point, perhaps it’s entirely hearsay) – Osho’s favourite movies were ‘Patton’ and ‘The 10 Commandments’. Perhaps others too.
The reasoning I saw was that […]

Osho often talked about a merger between the two, so he must at some point have considered them as distinct polarities in the psyche. But I do think they live in each of us, the Zorba and the Buddha, and it […]

“How do you live your Sannyas?”
As blissfully as possible . But when it’s not blissful, it’s hard to ignore. I certainly embody the Zorba/Buddha paradigm: quiet, meditative moments followed by subwoofer […]

Appreciate your continued discussions about Zorba — you are fully right — one cannot separate Buddha from Zorba — it is simply not possible.
And also:
“Oshooo, in the name of Jesus Christ, leave this body! […]
