푸나에있는 오쇼의 휴양지에서 안녕하세요. 그게 내 건강의 '리조트'에서 모든 손님의 요구했습니다 일명 HIV / AIDS 테스트를 체크 밝혀졌다하지만 위안로서의 열대 귀뚜라미의 소리를 찾는에도 불구하고 소리 박 수면에서 날 차단이 문제를 제시 :
1) 나는 오전 Trypanophobic - 내가 바늘로 다리에 힘이있어 그들의 생각이 내 손바닥의 땀을 저것 yesterdays의 공포증과 에피소드 만들면서. 그 두 공포증 적어도 다음 지금 덮여있어.
내 의료 기다했을 그래서이 도착하기 전에 2) 건강 센터는 30 분 마감했다.
"괜찮아요, 선생님, 오늘은있을 수 없지만 아침에 9a.m에 등록해야합니다."

"일단 아침에 등록한 당신은 저녁 회의 당일과 흰색 예복에 착용에 적갈색 예복을 구입하셔야합니다."
"그들은 의무 있습니까?"내가 물었다.
그녀가 다음 주 동안 나에게 수업 일정을 안겨준로 "그래,하지만 저녁 회의 후에 당신의 정상적인 의류로 변경할 수 있습니다"웃는 여자가 확인했다.
"얼마나 선생님, 우리와 함께 있습니까?"
"아 그냥 24 시간"나는 대답했다. 그게 내 토큰 dafter 내 손가락에 작은 핀 녀석이 내 아침 식사를 계획하고 다음날 아침 구입 오트밀과 다알 있던 의료가 완료되었습니다 10 분 이내에 내 예복은 내게 넘겨했다.
거대한 구제, 모든 괜찮 았어 내가 오쇼의 휴양지에서 prodded 가축해야 할 것은 아니지만 그것이 HIV / AIDS 도망 간하지 않은 여전히 글로벌 살인범이 있단 얘길 들었을때가 도착했을 때 꽤 충격을 몇 27년 질병 인식 후.

오쇼, Bhagwan Rajneesh, 그리고 잃어버린 진실
"명상은 사업을 만들 수 없습니다."- 아차르야 Rajneesh 1971
내가 먼저 1970 년 12 월 그의 봄베이 아파트에서 그를 만났을 때 아차르야 Rajneesh는 39 살. 긴 수염과 큰 어두운 눈으로, 그는 삶에 올 라오 - TSE의 그림처럼 보였다. Rajneesh을 만나기 전에, 난 그들의 가르침의 품질에 만족하지 않고 동부 gurus의 번호와 시간 (사진 참조) 보냈다. 나는 동양과 서양 사이의 격차를 다리, 인도, 티벳, 또는 일본 문화의 초과 수하물없이 진정한 비의 비밀을 밝히지 수 문명화 가이드를 원했습니다. Rajneesh 그 깊은 의미에 대한 내 탐구에 대한 대답했다. 그는 내가 그 내면의 세계에 대해 알고 싶어 선명한 세부 모든 것을 나를 위해 설명, 그리고 엄청난 자신의 단어를 백업되는 전원을했다. 21 세 때, 나는 삶과 인간의 본성에 대한 순진하고 있었고, 난 그가 날 사실해야 말한 모든 것을 생각했습니다. [자신의 최상 Rajneesh의 사진보기]
Rajneesh은 지능 높은 수준에서 얘기하고, 그의 강력한 존재는 모든 상처를 치유 부드러운 불빛처럼 시체에서 방사. 친구의 작은 모임 도중에 가까이 앉아있는 동안, Rajneesh 거의 내 신체 몸 밖으로 밀어 듯 빠르게 수직 안쪽 여행을 내게했다. 그의 거대한 존재가 자신의 부분에 조금의 노력없이도 높은 주위 사람을 드러내기 시작 했어. 내가 그의 봄베이의 아파트에서 보낸 시절은 하늘에서 보낸 일 같았어요. 그는 그것을했다, 그는 무료로 그것을 멀리주는어요!
Rajneesh는 "shaktipat."등 그의 제자들에게 안락함과 영감을 가지고 고귀이 전력을 사용하는 인도에서 알려져 직접 에너지 전송 능력을 보유. Rajneesh은 텔레파시의 "제 3의 눈"권력과 원격보기뿐만를 주장하고, 수년 동안 나는 사실 주장을 믿었습니다. 그러나, 1980 년대 Rajneesh 자신의 눈앞에서 직접 발생 그의 오레곤 공동체의 비극적인 이벤트를 인식하지 못했습니다, 그 주장 능력이 지금은 내 마음에 물음표되도록. 많은 gurus 새로운 제자와 새로운 자금을 유치하기 위해 신비 심령 능력을 갖는 자랑합니다. 그가 자신의 개인 생활의 그의 지식으로 그들을 감동 수 있도록 자신의 헬퍼가 방문자 조사에가는 Rajneesh의 습관은 그의의 효과에 대한 현재 회의에 추가 "제 3의 눈."그것은 그에게 가까이 와서 사람들이 그랬다고하지만, 사실이라고 그의 놀라운 우주의 존재를 경험합니다. Rajneesh과 함께 회의를 얼굴에 하나 또는 두 개의 얼굴은 awed 존경과 헌신으로 서양 회의론을 의심 설정하는 맞았습니다.
일년 전에 나는 Jiddu Krishnamurti으로 세계에 알려진 또 다른 지진 선생님을 충족했다. J. Krishnamurti 거의 일관된 강연을 줄 수있는, 그는 항상 자신을 참조하여 자신의 고객을 책망 "대충 작은 마음."내가 그의 솔직한 사랑하고, 그의 말이 사실 있었지만, 그의 갑자기 ... 다루기 힘든 성격은 그의 지식을 전송 매우 도움이 아니었 다른 사람에게. [J. Krishnamurti의 사진보기]
J. Krishnamurti 말을 듣기 것은 빵과 모래로 만든 샌드위치를 먹고 같았다. 나는 그의 이야기를 즐길 수있는 가장 좋은 방법은 완전히 자신의 단어를 무시하고 조용히 자신의 존재를 흡수하는 것이었다 발견했습니다. 그 기술을 사용하여, 나는 거의 나중에 몇 시간 동안 얘기 할 수있는 강의 이후에 확장이 될 것입니다. J. Krishnamurti는 완전히 깨달은하고 독특하게 매력적 동안 매우 가난한 구두 의사 소통 능력이있는 교사로서 역사에 기록됩니다. 매우 설득력 Rajneesh와는 달리, 그러나, J. Krishnamurti는 어떤 범죄를 저지른 적이 그보다 더 척했던 적 없어, 그는이기적인 다른 인간을 사용하지 마십시오.
인생은 복잡하고 multilayered이며, 완벽한 깨달음의 현상에 대한 나의 순진한 환상은 지난 몇 년 동안 버렸다. 그것은 깨달은 사람들이 사람처럼 식은 것을 분명히했다. 그들은 인간이 아닌 완벽한 인간을 확대하고, 그들이 살고 같은 결함 그리고 보통 인간이 견딜 수 있어야합니다 취약점의 많은과 함께 호흡하고 있습니다.
회의 적이라는 내가 Rajneesh 그의 스캔들하고 비참한 공공 이미지를 주어, 깨달은 것을 주장하는 방법을 부탁드립니다. 난 단지 Rajneesh의 자기 존재가 모든 높은 티베트어 라마에 의해 지진으로 인식하고 하루의 힌두교 세이지 성실히 이행되었습니다 Jiddu Krishnamurti,의 동일이라고 말할 수 있습니다. 나는 그러나, 회의 적이라는 동정 않습니다. 제가 개인적으로 Rajneesh을 알고하지 않았다면, 내가 직접 믿지 않을 것입니다.
Rajneesh은 긍정적이고 부정적인 두 방향으로 깨달음의 곤란하게 만들 었어. 그는 최고의 최고의 최악의 최악이다. 그는 Rajneesh 의식의 높은 수준에 구직자의 수천을 드러내기 시작. "다이나믹 명상 '라는 극적인 전력 협력해 혁신적인 명상 기술과 함께, 그의 초기 몇 년 동안 좋은 선생님이었고, 그 빛나는 선명도와 동양 종교와 고대 명상 기술을 자세한. [Rajneesh 선도 그룹 명상을 볼 - 페이지 하단의 동적 명상에 대한 설명과 경고를 참조]
하나의 거짓으로 이동합니다. 한 그랜드 오류가 발생했습니다.
아차르야 Rajneesh은 중앙 인도에서 Kuchwada 마을에서 1931년 12월 11일에서 태어났습니다. '아차르야'용어는 종교 교사를 의미하고, 'Rajneesh'문을 의미합니다. Rajneesh의 실제 법적 이름은 찬드라 모한 쟁되었다; 'Rajneesh'는 어린 시절에 획득한 경우에만 비공식 애칭되고. 1971 년 밤늦게 내가 아차르야 Rajneesh로 알고있는 사람은 갑자기 자신의 이름을 변경 "Bhagwan Rajneesh."유명한 깨달은 세이지, Ramana 마하르쉬가, 애정의 자발적인 용어로 그의 제자들에 의해 'Bhagwan'이라고했다. Rajneesh은 단순히 모두가 그에게 Bhagwan '신왕 께서 베푸신'에서 하나님에게 아무 의미가 수있는 제목을 부르기 시작한다고 세계에 선언했다. '스리'가 주인을 경칭의 용어이다, 그의 가장 악명 성명, Bhagwan 스리 Rajneesh가 하나님 마스터 문으로 번역될 수 있도록. Rajneesh은 내가 한번 정중하게 강의 후에 영어 단어 그의 mispronunciations을 수정하면 염증되었고, 그래서 내가 그의 새로운 타이틀이 부적절하고 부정한 것 같다고 말하없이 위치에 느꼈습니다. 이름에 그 변경 정직의 Rajneesh의 레벨에 전환점을 표시하고 많은 큰 첫 와서 아직 거짓말을했다.
Rajneesh는 열혈 신자 치로 쿠션 자신의 인생 경험을 강의를 제공하지 않는 한 좀처럼 방을 떠나지도, 상아탑에서 살았습니다. [봄베이에서 자신의 침실에 Rajneesh의 사진보기] 그는 1974 년, 푸나, 인도의 대형 부동산 그의 작은 봄베이의 아파트에서 이사 왔을 때 그의 고립은 더욱 완료되었습니다. 왕로 처리됩니다 대부분의 인간으로서, Rajneesh는 평범한 사람의 세계 연락을 놓쳤습니다. 그의 인공 및 절연 존재, Rajneesh 그의 가르침이 무너 질수 판단에서 한 근본적인 오류를했다.
"당신이 그들에게 것은 사실이지만, 내가 (유용 거짓말)하라고하는 것은 그들을위한 좋은 것입니다."- Bhagwan 스리 Rajneesh, 푸나, 인도는 1975 년
Rajneesh은 지구의 인구의 대부분은 그들이 진짜 진리를 이해하거나 용납하지 않을 수 의식 같은 낮은 수준에 있다고 계산. 그는 따라서 자신의 개인적인 성장을위한 독특한 상황에서 학생들에게 스트레스, 경우에, 그의 제자들에게 영감을 제공할 수 겉보기에 도움이 거짓말을 확산하는 정책 결정합니다. 이것이 그의 몰락하고 그가 또 다른 가짜 전문가로서 가장 역사가 기억하게 될 주요 이유로했습니다. Rajneesh의 가르침을 자신의 무지, 속기 쉬움, 인도 문화 시설 밖으로 태어난 의도 거짓말과 의도 허위, 가득했습니다. 그의 심령 술사 존재하지만 100 % 실제와 매우 강력했다. [보고 당신은 영혼이 있습니까? 그리고 롱 웨이 Rajneesh의 말도 가르침]
아차르야, Bhagwan 스리, 오쇼, ... Rajneesh 취한 모든 힘을 실어 이름이 그가 아직 인간했다는 사실을 은폐하지 못했습니다. 그는 다른 사람들처럼, 야망과 욕망, 성적 및 자료를했다. 모든 깨달은 인간은 욕망을했습니다. 모든 깨달은 사람은 우리가 알고있는 대중 생활을 함께하지 않았나, 모든 비밀 유지 개인의 삶을 있었다. 깨달은 사람의 대부분은 아무것도 아니지만 세계에 좋은 일을하지 않습니다. 단 Rajneesh 내 지식, 단어의 법적 및 윤리적 의미 모두에서 범죄자가되었습니다.
Rajneesh이되는 궁극적인 실존적 진실을 손해 본 적이 없어요. 그는 단지 어떤 정상적인 성인들이 이해할 수 진리의 일반적인 개념을 잃었습니다. 그는 "lefthanded 탄트라"라고 거짓말을하고 자신의 상수를 합리하지만 너무 정직했다. Rajneesh 자신의 실수에 대한 책임을 복용 피하기 위해, 얼굴을 저장하고, 개인적인 권력을 얻기 위해 거짓말을 했어. 그 거짓말 탄트라이나 친절의 사심 행위와는 아무 상관 없었다. 무엇이 세상에서 진정한 것은 사실이며, Rajneesh는 매일 사실을 misrepresented. Rajneesh 이렇게 많은 다른 사람 같이 더 간단한 사기꾼 없었다. Rajneesh는 부처님 알고 모든 것을 알고, 그는 부처님이 것을 전부 였어요. 그것은 그의 인생의 작품을 파괴 평범한 진실을 존중하는 그의 손실되었습니다.
Rajneesh의 건강은 그의 초기 삼십대에 무너졌습니다. 비록 중년에 도달하기 전에, Rajneesh는 약점 reoccurring 관찰을 입었다. 그의 젊은 대학 년 동안, 그는 기력의 절정에 있었어야 할 때, Rajneesh은 종종 12-14시간에게 설명할 질병으로 인해 하루 자고했다. Rajneesh은 Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME) 유럽인 전화 것과 고통, 또는 미국인들은 만성 피로 증후군 (CFS)라고 부릅니다. 그의 고전적인 증상은 명백한 피로, 이상한 알레르기, 반복 낮은 학년 fevers, 광선 공포증, orthostatic 편협 (시간의 정상적인 기간 동안 서 불능), 불면증, 신체 통증, 그리고 냄새와 화학 물질로 극단적인 감도, 조건 의사 지금 포함 로 참조 "여러 화학 감도."
Rajneesh의 상표 화학 감도들은 자기 방에서 그를 방문 허용되기 전에 그가 불쾌 냄새로 사람을 도청하기 위해 자신의 경비를 지시 너무 심각했다. 걸프전 증후군, MS, 그리고 다른 신경 및 면역 체계 질병을 가진 사람은 또한 화학 물질과 냄새로 종종 매우 민감합니다. Rajneesh의 가난한 사람의 건강과 이상한 현상은 실제 신경 및 면역 체계 장애의 제품이 아닌 자신의 깨달음에 의한 일부 비의 supersensitivity했다. Rajneesh은 또한 타입 II 당뇨병, 천식, 그리고 심한 다시 통증을했다.
Rajneesh 내가 먼저 1990년 1월 19일에 그의 죽음까지 1970 년에 만났을 때부터 지속적으로 아픈하고 연약한되었습니다. 그는 매주 다른 감기나 독감을 받고 알았는데. 실제로 그는 영원 증상이 같은 독감과 만성 신경 및 면역 체계 질환, 만성 피로 증후군으로 고통. Rajneesh 그는 혈압을 제어 자신의 자율 신경계에 손상을 입었 때문에 어지러워지고없이 오랜 기간 동안 자신의 발에 서 수 없습니다. 이 neurally 인한 저혈압 만성 피로 원인과 뇌 (두뇌 hypoxia)에 나오지 충분한 혈액과 산소 부족으로 IQ를 낮출 수 (서가 동시에 낮은 혈압). 1970 년대, Rajneesh은 종종 서 즉시 어지러움 될 불평했다. 푸나에있는 그의 삶의 마지막 몇 달 동안 Rajneesh 자주 완전한 무의식에 기절.
Rajneesh 그의 아파와 통증에 대한 진통제로 처방 의약품, 주로 발륨 (다이아제팜)를 사용하고 dysautonomia (자율 신경계의 기능 장애)의 증상을 카운터합니다. 그 사용량에서 Rajneesh 하루에 60 밀리그램의 최대 권장 복용량을했다, 그것이 대개 정신 질병의 장기 치료에 대한 처방되도록 높은 복용량. 정기적으로 발륨을 복용 시간이 경과함에 따라 효과에 대한 저항을 구축하고, 높은 이상 복용 환자의 스트레스 해소 및 최면 효과를 유지하기 위해 필요합니다. Rajneesh 또한 그 창의력을 향상 주장 순수한 산소와 혼합 아산 화질소 (N2O)를 흡입. 아산 화질소는 아마도 심한 피로와 만성 피로 증후군 질식 환자는 종종 느낌의 감각을 완화했지만, 그것은 그의 심판의 품질에 대한 아무것도 없었어요. 약물의 힘을 대한 순진하고 부정적인 영향을 싸울 자신의 능력을 과신, Rajneesh은 중독에 굴복. [치과 의자에 오쇼를 확인하고 일산 화질소의 위험]
제자의 수가 Rajneesh는 헤로인 중독자 및 일반 주정 뱅이 자주 마찬가지로 그는 가끔 자신의 가정의 복도에서 urinated되는 1980 년대 그의 오레곤 목장에 너무 취한 것을 주장했습니다. 내가이 사실이라고 믿을 수, 마지막 시간 나는 Bhagwan 스리 Rajneesh 그 사람이 물리적으로 추악한되는 지점에 술취한 채되었다 보았다. 그는 미국에서 메타 돈 클리닉에서 일하는 동안 마약 중독자에서 목격했던 같은 기운이없는 모양과 어리석은 행동을했다. Rajneesh은 기적 정신 능력을했지만, 그는 육체적으로하는 일반적인 인간했고 진정제의 과다 사용의 파괴 효과를 용납하지 못했습니다.
Rajneesh의 신체적 질병 위에, 발륨 그의 거대한 섭취는 편집증의 원인이 크게 추론 능력을 감소. 발륨 중독자들은 종종 CIA 또는 다른 보이지 악당들을 상대로 음모를 꾸미고 있다고 생각, 그래서 그것은 그가이 미국 정부에 의해 독살당한 것을 상상 것은 놀라운 일이 아니다. 그의 추론의 힘이 너무 Rajneesh 실제로 러시아어 공산주의, 분별있는 사람은 아마도 대접 수없는 아이디어와 정신 자신의 전체주의 양식을 결합하는 러시아로 이동 간주되는 손상되었다. 고르바쵸프가의 Rajneesh 자신의 브랜드 대신 서양식 자본주의 러시아를 이동했기 때문에 Rajneesh 공개, 마이클 고르바초프의 암살에 대한 소위 "영적인 공산주의."역사적으로, 진정제는 CFS의 환자에 대한 선택의 마약을왔다는 마스크 dysautonomia의 부담스러워 증상으로 과 수면을 가져다줍니다. Rajneesh은 불면증에서 만성 피로 증후군의 또 다른 고전적인 증상을 입었다.
Rajneesh 정신적으로 손상되었다 실제로 병이 사람이었습니다. LSD와 그의 간단한 실험은 사태를 악화시킨. Rajneesh의 마약 사용과 중독은 자신의 결정이 아닌 정부 음모의 문제가되었다. Rajneesh 죽음의 공식적인 원인으로 표시 심장 마비와 함께, 1990 년에 사망했다. 그것은 미국의 감옥 자체가 자신의 배경 경험을하는 동안 실제 거절 Rajneesh 그의 발륨 중독과 스트레스와 알레르기 항원에 노출로 인해 자신의 만성 피로 증후군의 악화에서 금단 증상의 조합에 의한 것을 가능성이있다.
Rajneesh의 모욕과 미국의 몰락 후, 그는 "예수가 로널드 레이건의 미국에 의해 십자가에."사실, Rajneesh 때문에 자신의 잘못된 행동이 자기 destructed 약물 중독 전문가였습니다 것을 선언했다. 그는 자신이 예수님에 대한 존중 없었기 때문에 예수님께 자신을 비교하는 것은 이중 부정 직한했다. 그는 한번 undiplomatically 예수라고 모든 것을 미국 언론에 선포 "그냥 미친."
"나는 Rajneeshpuram의 버려진 도시를 가서 거의 믿을 수 있었다 것들을 보았다. 마 아난드 Sheela 본부, 조립해 이동 주택의 그룹, 비밀 문 숨겨진 터널, 그녀의 개인 공간 개발에 모든 객실에 접속 전자 듣기 장비와 지휘 본부의 하이브를했다. Bhagwan의 나무 마루 - 패널 분의 그의 머리맡에 의해 산화 질소 spigots을했고, 여러 샤워 거대한 욕실 둘러싸인했다. "- 짐 위버 전 오레곤 하원은 [짐 위버스 전체 문서를 참조]
In the 1998 preface to Books I Have Loved, Rajneesh's (Osho's) personal dentist, Swami Devageet, states that Osho dictated three books under the influence of nitrous oxide. They were Books I Have Loved, Glimpses of a Golden Childhood, and Notes of a Madman. Refering to his own nitrous oxide use, Rajneesh himself stated that “Actually oxygen and nitrogen are basic elements of existence. They can be of much use, but for reasons the politicians have been against chemicals of all kinds, all drugs.” Ma Anand Sheela, Rajneesh's personal secretary, publicly stated on the CBS news show 60 Minutes that Rajneesh took 60 milligrams of Valium every day. Hugh Milne, Rajneesh's head bodyguard, confirmed Rajneesh's heavy Valium use, as did Swami Devageet. The FBI knew that Rajneesh was a Valium and nitrous oxide addict from their own investigations, and that fact was published in newspapers around the USA, including articles in “THE OREGONIAN” and “THE NEW YORK TIMES.” There is no doubt that Rajneesh became a drug addict except in the minds of passionate Osho followers who don't want to admit the painful truth.
Rajneesh once jokingly refered to himself as “the rubber hose Buddha,” because he was always inhaling nitrous oxide through a rubber hose. Rajneesh did not seem to realize that becoming a drug addict not only devalued himself as a teacher, but to some extend discredited the very concept of anyone becoming a “Buddha.” If even an enlightened Buddha needs drugs to get high, then what value is there in becoming “enlightened” at all?
“People call me an 'enlightened man' — I detest that term — they can't find any other word to describe the way I am functioning. At the same time, I point out that there is no such thing as enlightenment at all. I say that because all my life I've searched and wanted to be an enlightened man, and I discovered that there is no such thing as enlightenment at all, and so the question whether a particular person is enlightened or not doesn't arise. I don't give a hoot for a sixth-century-BC Buddha, let alone all the other claimants we have in our midst. They are a bunch of exploiters, thriving on the gullibility of the people. There is no power outside of man. Man has created God out of fear. So the problem is fear and not God.” – UG Krishnamurti
Upon his sudden death in 1990, there was much media speculation that Rajneesh had committed suicide by taking an overdose of drugs. As no disciple has confessed to giving Rajneesh a lethal injection, there is no hard evidence to support the suicide theory. A compelling circumstantial case could be made for such a scenario, however, with suicide provoked by Rajneesh's constant ill health and disheartenment over the loss of Vivek, his greatest love.
Vivek had taken a fatal overdose of sleeping pills in a Bombay hotel one month before Rajneesh's passing. Pointedly, Vivek decided to kill herself immediately before Rajneesh's birthday celebration. Rajneesh had threatened suicide at the Oregon commune several times, hanging his death over the heads of his disciples as a threat unless they obeyed his orders. On his last day on earth, Rajneesh is reported to have said “Let me go. My body has become a hell for me.”
The rumor that Rajneesh was poisoned with thallium by operatives of the United States Government is entirely fictional and contradicted by undeniable fact. One of the obvious symptoms of thallium poisoning is dramatic hair loss within seven days of exposure. Rajneesh died with a full beard and no exceptional baldness other than ordinary male pattern baldness at the top of his head. Radiation poisoning, another fictional cause of his illness, also causes dramatic hair loss.
The symptoms which may have led Rajneesh's doctors to suspect poisoning are common symptoms of dysautonomia caused by Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Those symptoms can include ataxia (uncoordinated movements), numbness, standing tachycardia (rapid heart rate upon standing), paresthesia (sensations of prickling and itching), nausea, and irritable bowel syndrome, which causes one to alternate between constipation and diarrhea. All of his negative physical and mental symptoms were severely compounded by his own self-induced nitrous oxide poisoning and heavy Valium use.
The only proven cases of illegal poisoning related to Rajneesh were carried out by Rajneesh's own sannyasins. A sannyasin is an initiated disciple, one who takes sannyas. In the year 1984 there were 751 poison victims, including women and small children, at ten restaurants in the The Dalles, Oregon. Rajneesh sannyasins attempted to take over the Wasco County Commission by making so many people ill on election day that they could elect their own sannyasin candidates. [see Rajneesh bioterrorism newspaper story]
Rajneesh disciples poisoned the restaurants' customers by contaminating salad bars and coffee creamers with salmonella bacteria. Forty-five of the victims became so ill they had to be hospitalized, making the case the largest germ warfare attack in United States history. Sannyasins were later suspected of trying to kill a Wasco County executive by spiking his water with an unknown poison. A Jefferson County District Attorney, Michael Sullivan, also became ill after leaving a cup of coffee unattended as Rajneesh sannyasins filled the courthouse. Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh never apologized to any of the people who were poisoned by his own trusted disciples.
Members of Rajneesh's staff were poisoned by Ma Anand Sheela, Rajneesh's personal secretary. Sheela had the habit of poisoning people who either knew too much or who had simply fallen out of her favor. Sheela spent two and a half years in a Federal medium security prison for her crimes, while Rajneesh pled guilty to immigration fraud and was given a ten year suspended sentence, fined $400,000., and deported from the United States of America. As part of his plea bargain agreement, more serious charges of racketeering were dropped. [see Rajneesh and Sheela's mugshots]
Rajneesh felt that teaching ethics was unnecessary because meditation would automatically lead to good behavior. The actions of Rajneesh and his disciples proves that theory to be completely false. Rajneesh taught that you should do as you please because life is both a dream and a joke. This attitude led to the classically fascist belief that one can become so high and mighty that one is beyond the need for old fashioned values and ethical behavior.
Those unfamiliar with the Rajneesh story can read the book, Bhagwan: The God That Failed, published by Saint Martin's Press and written by Hugh Milne (Shivamurti), a close disciple of Rajneesh during his Poona and Oregon years. Except for Ma Yoga Laxmi, Rajneesh's first secretary, and Vivek, Rajneesh's main girlfriend, Shivamurti probably spent more time in close physical proximity to Rajneesh than anyone in Rajneesh's adult life. Mr. Milne's book is largely corroborated by Satya Bharti Franklin's book, Promise of Paradise: A Woman's Intimate Life With 'Bhagwan' Osho Rajneesh, published by Barrytown/Station Hill Press. Both books are out of print, but secondhand copies can be obtained through Amazon.Com. There have been many other tell-all books published on the same subject matter, but I have not read them and I do not know the authors, so I do not mention them here.

The Void has no ambition or personality whatsoever, so Rajneesh could only speak for his own animal mind. The animal mind may want its disciples to “take over the whole world,” but the Void does not care because it is beyond any motivation. The phenomena we called Rajneesh, Bhagwan, and Osho, was only a temporary lens of cosmic energy, not the full cosmos itself.
Rajneesh, and the famous Greek-Armenian mystic George Gurdjieff, often used the power of the Atman for clearly personal gain. [see photo of Gurdjieff] Both men used their cosmic consciousness to overwhelm and seduce women. Gurdjieff was ashamed of his behavior and vowed many times during his life to end this practice, which was a combination of ordinary male lust backed up by the potent advantage of oceanic supermental power. Rajneesh went even further and used his channeled cosmic energy to manipulate masses of people to gain a kind of quasi-political status, and to aggrandize himself far beyond what was honest or helpful to his disciples. In Oregon, Rajneesh declared to the media that “My religion is the only religion!” Diplomacy and modesty were not his strong points.
제가 알기로, 조지 Gurdjieff는 Rajneesh의 자기 방종의 극단에 도달하지 못했다, 그리고 심지어 그를 맹인 믿음을하지 않는 그의 제자들에게 경고했다. Gurdjieff 그의 학생들이 맑은 정신 추론과 우주 의식의 결합 능력을 가진 자유와 독립이되고 싶어.

Rajneesh이 아니라 연민, 강한 개인적인 야망에 의해 주도되었다.

When you decapitate the intelligence of human beings you create a situation that is highly dangerous and destructive to the human spirit. You cannot save people from their egos by demanding “total surrender.” The antidemocratic technique of forcing blind obedience did not work well for Hitler, Stalin, or for Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh. Germany, Russia, and the Rajneesh Oregon commune were all destroyed by authoritarian imperial rule. A diversity of opinion is always healthy because it acts as an effective counterbalance to the myopic arrogance of those who would be king. Rajneesh never understood this truth of history and referred to democracy scornfully as “mobocracy.” Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh was an imperial aristocrat, never a generous and open minded democrat, and he put his contempt for the democratic process into highly visible action in Oregon.
In an attempt to subvert a local Wasco County election, Rajneesh had his sannyasins bus in almost 2,000 homeless people from major American cities in an effort to unfairly rig the voting process in his favor. Some of the new voters were mentally ill and were given beer laced with drugs to keep them manageable. Credible allegations have been made that one or more of the imported street people died due to overdosing on the beer and drug mixture, their bodies buried in the desert. To my knowledge that charge has not been conclusively proven. Rajneesh's voting fraud scheme failed, and the derelicts and mental patients were returned to the streets after the election was over, used and then abandoned.
Rajneesh used people, spoke out of both sides of his mouth, and betrayed the trust of his own disciples. This betrayal caused Vivek, his longtime girlfriend and companion, to commit suicide by taking an overdose of sleeping pills. Rajneesh even lied about her death, slandering his greatest love in her grave by falsely claiming that she was chronically depressed due to some intrinsic emotional instability. Vivek was never depressed during the years I knew her, and she was the most radiant women I have ever known. [see photo of Vivek]
Vivek was a glowing student of meditation, but her only meditation method was being with Rajneesh and absorbing his tremendous energy. When her one true love collapsed into insanity, she took her own life out of overwhelming grief. Rajneesh drove her to suicide because she could not understand nor tolerate his mental decline and collapse. Rajneesh lied about her death to avoid taking responsibility for his own bizarre behavior, which was the underlying cause of Vivek's despair.
젊은 아차르야 Rajneesh은 거짓 gurus를 비난 교사로서의 생활을 시작하고, 그는 세계를 아는가 가장 사기 gurus 중 하나로서 그의 인생을 종료했습니다. 이해하기 어려운 사실은 그가 불법 구루 청교도 때 그는 깨달은 것을 있으며, 그 궁극적인 손상, 자기 자신 관대 전문가 때 그는 여전히 지진되었습니다. 그는 도움이 거짓말이라고 생각 했어요 것을 부탁 신뢰를 삭제하기 때문에 Rajneesh 자신의 가르침을 파괴. 일단 당신이 그 잘못을, 멀리 보통 간단한 사실에서, 당신은 길을 잃은 것. 폐기 사실로 당신의 발 아래 바닥을 폐기하기 때문에 인간은 혼란의 바다에서 자신을 찾는 않고 정기적으로 사실을 무시 수 없습니다. 리틀 거짓말 큰 거짓말로 성장하고, 지금은 숨겨진 진실은 당신의 적이 아니라 귀하의 동맹국과 친구가된다.
Rajneesh 자신을 과대 평가하고 자신의 제자를 과소 평가. 주위 실제 구직자 쉽게 진실을 처리할 수 있어요 이미 선전을위한 필요없이 동기했다. Rajneesh 그 장대한 측면에서 자신을 보러 온 그러한 오랫동안 유명한 컨설턴트인했다. 그는 참으로 역사적인 인물 이었지만 그는 척 완벽한 초인되지 않았습니다. 아무도 없다! 그의 제자들이 정직을 자격지만, 그들이 동화 공급 "그들에게 믿음을 줄 수 있습니다."
Jiddu Krishnamurti had been more honest than Rajneesh in repeating relentlessly that “there is no authority” due to the intrinsic nature of the universe. Ardent Rajneesh disciples didn't heed J. Krishnamurti's warnings and put blind faith in a man who claimed to be all-seeing, to have all the answers, and who once in 1975 brashly stated that he had never made a single mistake in his entire life. Clearly, Rajneesh made as many mistakes as any human being. Just as obviously, his basic existential enlightenment was no guarantee of functional pragmatic wisdom.
Rajneesh was a brilliant philosopher, but he was a lost babe in the woods when it came to the world of science. Worried about worldwide overpopulation, Rajneesh pressured his disciples to undergo sexual reproduction sterilization procedures. Unfortunately, he did not consider the demographics of population growth. The current population expansion is largely a phenomena of poor Third World nations, not a problem originating in the USA, Canada, and Europe, where birth rates are actually declining. North America and Europe are only experiencing population increases due to legal and illegal immigration from Third World nations. Having his Western disciples medically sever their reproductive capabilities only added to this imbalance, and many former disciples now regret they complied without question to his thoughtless edicts.
Discouraging followers from having families is a common device of gurus to keep disciples from spending money on children rather than handing their cash over to the guru himself. Childless disciples make better workers and are usually more subservient. Thus, sexual sterilization fit into Rajneesh's business plan and his desire to create an army of followers who felt that “only the relationship to guru is important.” Rajneesh was the son of an ambitious Jain businessman, and he was more like his father than he ever realized. Rajneesh's enlightenment was overlaid on top of a mind attuned to business and making money.
In the 1980s, Rajneesh declared that the AIDS epidemic would soon kill three quarters of the world's population and that a major nuclear war was just around the corner. He thought he could escape nuclear holocaust by building underground shelters and slow the spread of AIDS by having his disciples wash their hands with alcohol before eating meals. His more reasoned admonition was for his followers to always use condoms. To enforce his sexual rules, which also involved elaborate instructions on the use of rubber gloves during sexual encounters, Rajneesh encouraged his sannyasins to spy on each other, reporting the names of those who failed to conform to his orders.
The disaster of Rajneesh appointing himself the singular great brain of the universe was compounded by his lack of real world reasoning skills, and this was apparent even before he started taking large amounts of Valium and inhaling nitrous oxide. Rajneesh had no understanding of the scientific method. If he thought something was true, in his own mind, that made it true. Rajneesh could weave magnificent philosophical dreams and addict his disciples to imagined worlds of spiritual adventure, but those dreams did not have to stand any empirical test of truth. In the world of science, you have to prove what you say is true through testing. In the world of philosophy and religion, you can say anything you desire and throw caution to the wind. If your words sound good to the masses, they will sell whether they are fact or fiction. [see The Ridiculous Teachings of Wrong Way Rajneesh and Common Lies of the Phony World of Mystics]
Rajneesh ruled his desert empire as a warlord with his own private army and puppet government. His visions and ideas, faulty or not, were taken without question as the word of God. His disciples were judged by their ability to surrender to his will, and any opposing views were branded as an unspiritual lack of faith. As conditions at the ranch became progressively more unpleasant, a number of sannyasins escaped by hiding in the back of outgoing trucks. Their quest for freedom upset Rajneesh, who demanded that the disillusioned must now ask his permission to leave. Rajneesh then dramatically threatened suicide if others escaped by stealthful means.
Rajneesh's poor reasoning became even more apparent during and after the Oregon commune scandal. After being jailed and then deported from the USA, Rajneesh angrily declared America “a wretched country” and branded Americans as “subhuman,” ignoring the fact that it was he, an Indian, who pled guilty to felony immigration fraud, and that it was Sheela, an Indian, who ordered the most serious crimes which brought his empire to ruin. Even in his fifties, Rajneesh was still lying to get his own way and still demanding to be the center of attention. In 1988, suffering from drug and illness induced dementia, Rajneesh publicly pouted that his box of toys, his expensive car collection and jewel encrusted watches, had been taken away.
Rajneesh's disciples thought they were following an authoritative “enlightened Master.” In reality they had been mislead by a highly fallible human animal who was still a little boy at heart. Rajneesh had not only misrepresented himself personally, but he misrepresented the phenomena of enlightenment itself. The idealized fantasy of perfect enlightenment does not exist anywhere in the real world, and it has never existed. The universe is far too big and complex for anyone to be its “Master.” We are all subjects, not Masters, and those who pretend to be infallible and all-knowing end up looking even more the fool as history inevitably proves them wrong.
“Nature does not use anything as a model. It is only interested in perfecting the species. It is trying to create perfect species and not perfect beings.” – UG Krishnamurti
The famous sages of old seem perfect to us now because they have become larger than life myths. The long passage of time has allowed their followers to cover up their guru's flaws, just as Rajneesh disciples are currently censoring history to cover up Rajneesh's great failings. Rajneesh was never more infallible than any other human being. Unfortunately, cosmic consciousness does not automatically render greater intelligence, wisdom, and honesty. [see The Brain and Meditation]
Rajneesh died addicted to Valium, and he experienced all of the negative symptoms of drug addiction, which included slurred speech, paranoia, poor judgment, and dramatically lowered intelligence. At one point his paranoia and confusion were so great that he thought a group of German cultists had cast an evil spell on him. His physical disabilities and drug abuse were simply more than his mortal brain could take. His biggest flaw, his disregard for the ordinary concept of truth, was his ultimate downfall, and for that crime he must be held fully responsible.
“Never give a sucker an even break.” – WC Fields
Rajneesh lied when he said he had enlightened disciples. He lied when he said he never made a mistake. Near the end of his life he was forced to admit that he was fallible, as his list of bungles had grown to monstrous proportions. He lied by pretending that his therapy groups were not mainly just a money making device. Rajneesh lied about breaking United States immigration laws, and he only admitted the truth after he was presented with overwhelming evidence against him. He lied by saying that he was adopted in a phony scheme to get permanent residence status. Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh was no bank robber, but he was quite literally a pathological liar. The ridiculous thing is that all of his lies were totally unnecessary and counterproductive. As conventional and square as it may sound, honesty really is the best policy!
Rajneesh lied when he claimed that he was not responsible for the horrors of the Oregon commune. Rajneesh was responsible because he hand picked Ma Anand Sheela and the people who committed the major crimes of conspiracy to commit murder, poisoning, first-degree assault, burglary, arson, and wiretapping. Rajneesh himself gave direct verbal approval for Sheela's illegal bugging and wiretapping of his own disciples. The fact that Rajneesh did not order or have preknowledge (hopefully) of the most serious violent crimes does not mean that he was not ethically responsible for them. Rajneesh never turned against Ma Anand Sheela until he started to suspect that Sheela was stealing money from him.
Just one month before Sheela fled the commune, Rajneesh spoke of her publicly, stating that “I have been preparing her like a sword. I told her to go out and cut as many heads as possible.” Later, Rajneesh feigned innocence and claimed that Sheela was controlling him in spite of the obvious fact that Rajneesh was the singular reason the commune existed. Rajneesh was surrounded by thousands of adoring disciples who would have gladly expelled or even jailed Sheela any time he gave the order.
Sheela did Rajneesh's dirty work, and the fact that she went farther in her crimes than Rajneesh had planned does not exonerate him of all guilt. Upon leaving the commune, Sheela stated that she was tired of “being his slave for 16, 17 or 20 hours a day,” and tired of “taking food out of the mouths of people to buy him watches and Rolls Royces.” Rajneesh then publicly claimed that Sheela had extorted millions of dollars from the commune. Sheela's response to his charge was that Rajneesh had spent all of the money himself on his own expensive toys, and that Rajneesh was bad at mathematics and “can't count.” Clearly, Rajneesh's insane purchases of dozens of bejeweled ladies' watches and over 90 Rolls-Royce automobiles cost the commune many millions of dollars. After her release from prison, Ma Anand Sheela continued to work for a living, without obvious signs of enormous wealth. Sheela committed many crimes, but Rajneesh himself was never “innocent.”
If a teacher puts a drunken sailor in charge of driving a school bus, and the children end up dead, then the teacher is responsible for their deaths. Rajneesh knew what kind of a person Sheela was, and he chose her because of her corruption and arrogance, not in spite of it. Rajneesh personally tutored Sheela in how to control and manipulate his own disciples, and it was Rajneesh himself who encouraged Sheela's infamous outbursts on the ABC television show, Nightline. In a cowardly attempt to evade his own failings, Rajneesh changed his name to Osho, as if a change in name could wash away his sins.
There is no publicly released evidence to suggest that Rajneesh ordered the germ warfare attack on the ten Oregon restaurants. There is also no publicly released evidence that implicates Rajneesh in the plot to have a sannyasin pilot fly an airplane full of explosives into an Oregon courthouse in order to intimidate the political opposition. Luckily, the sannyasin pilot who was asked to perform that insane task was not as dumb as the plotters, and he fled the commune without committing any crime.
Rajneesh was directly responsible for the twisted mix of totalitarian slavery and libertine indulgence that the commune represented. According to highly credible published reports, Rajneesh allowed middle aged men to have sexual intercourse with prepubescent girls at the commune in the name of sexual freedom, yet his disciples were not allowed to have a mind of their own and had to totally surrender to the great Bhagwan's will. Disciples were often forced to work 12 hours a day in cold and difficult conditions, while Rajneesh himself experienced “groovy spaces” in his private heated indoor pool and watched countless movies on his big screen projection television, all the while enjoying his daily supply of drugs. Rajneesh showed his divine love for his disciples by squandering millions in hard earned commune assets on his car collection and expensive jewelry, and all in the name of egolessness and spiritual surrender. [see photo of the flagrantly narcissistic Osho wearing jewel encrusted watch]
Why did Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh own over 90 Rolls-Royces? Why did Saddam Hussein own dozens of luxurious palaces? Those desires were products of the base animal mind of two men who grew up surrounded by poverty. Enlightenment does not care about symbols of power and potency. Looking for hidden esoteric explanations for obsessive behavior is pointless. Is there an occult reason that Elton John spends over $400,000. per month on flowers? Is there a secret spiritual reason that Rajneesh had a collection of dozens of expensive ladies' watches? The universal cosmic consciousness is completely neutral and without any need to possess, impress, or dominate. It also cannot drive or tell time.
One of Rajneesh's most blatant lies was that “the enlightened one gains nothing from his disciples.” Rajneesh wanted people to believe that everything he did was a free gift born of pure compassion, and that he gained nothing personally from the guru-disciple relationship. In obvious provable fact, Rajneesh gained much from his disciples: money, power, sex, and the titillation of constant adoration. Just as rock stars become energized by screaming fans at concerts, Rajneesh gained emotional energy and support from his army of sannyasins. The energy transfer was a two-way street, not a totally free one-way gift. Being a guru was his business, his only business. Without that income, at least on the material level, he was just a short, balding, physically disabled Indian man who could not hold a job. Rajneesh's very real enlightenment would not pay his bills or give him the material luxuries he craved.
Consciousness needs entertainment to survive, and Rajneesh used his disciples as playthings for his own amusement. Rajneesh had no bankable power of his own, so he could only gain material power by manipulating others to do his will. The equation was simple. The more disciples he attracted, the more power and wealth he obtained.
During Rajneesh's incarceration in America, a television network broadcast a video of Rajneesh caught off-guard by a security camera while he was being held in a waiting room. Rajneesh looked bored and disgusted, just as any ordinary man might be. He didn't look blissful or enlightened at all. In my own opinion that video clip revealed the stark truth about the phenomena we call 'enlightenment.' The realization of the Void is not enough for anyone. All human animals, enlightened or not, need social interaction and the comforts of the material world to be content.
Rajneesh, on so many levels, was just an ordinary man. Sexually he was even less than ordinary. Pretending to be a great Tantric in his early years, Rajneesh handed out ridiculously bad sexual advice at a time when he had very little first hand experience with sex himself. During his Bombay years, Rajneesh often grabbed the breasts of young female disciples. On at least one occasion, he asked a couple to have sex in front of him so that he could watch. The couple wisely rejected his request.
Rajneesh often asked women half his age to strip in front of him so that he could “feel their chakras.” To facilitate this practice, he installed an electric lock on his bedroom door that could be activated from a button on his desk. Rajneesh groped the breasts of two of my female friends and “felt the chakras” of a third. I soon began to realize that like so many other girl grabbing Indian gurus who had made the headlines, Rajneesh on the human level was just an ordinary sexually immature Indian male. My lady friend who suffered the chakra feeling incident was so put off that she never came back to see him again. He had told her “Don't worry. You are mine now.” That grasping statement had chilled her as much as the sexual advance. The young woman was a student of Indian music and had previously been sexually exploited by a famous Indian musician. She knew first hand what many Indian men were like. Rajneesh proved himself to be predictably and disappointingly the same.
After Rajneesh started having sexual intercourse on a regular basis, the spiritual need for him to “feel the chakras” of his female disciples mysteriously vanished. Rajneesh rationalized having sex with his female disciples by claiming that the act would bless them so much that they would become enlightened in some future lifetime. His admission years later that there is no such thing as reincarnation made his sexual rationalizations appear even more ridiculous and self-serving.
Rajneesh had much inside him that I wanted: light, energy, and a vastly expanded state of being. Regrettably, he also had much inside him that I did not want or respect. I do not find fault with Rajneesh for having the same sexual desires that all men have. I did find fault when he was dishonest and cruel for purely selfish reasons.
While living in Bombay, Rajneesh made one young woman pregnant through an aggressive and unasked for seduction. The woman was highly upset and forced by circumstance to have an abortion. In order to protect his image as a great guru, Rajneesh lied about his involvement and claimed that the girl had imagined the whole affair. The young woman told the American Embassy her story, and that incident marked the beginning of Rajneesh's troubles with the United States Government.
Nature has provided human animals with a strong, virtually unstoppable sex drive to ensure reproduction of the species. Because of the overwhelming importance and power of sex, most gurus, enlightened or not, have maintained active sex lives which are often kept secret for purely political reasons. In his early years, Rajneesh lied about his strong sexuality by claiming to be celibate. To be fair, this has to be understood in the context of a rigidly antisexual and highly hypocritical Indian social structure. Later on, after his position as a guru had become secure, Rajneesh publicly bragged to the American media that he had sex “with hundreds of women.” All of Rajneesh's sex partners were his own female meditation students who were used as his personal harem.
All human beings are animals, specifically mammals. Scientists now believe that human DNA is approximately 93% the same as chimpanzee DNA. World history, Asian mythology, politics, and the behavior of alpha male gurus makes allot more sense if you keep that unavoidable fact in mind. Our most primal subconscious motivating forces come from the animal world, which we are still a part of.
The last time I visited the Rajneesh ashram in Poona, India, was in 1988. The ashram was literally like a loud convention of German Brownshirts (storm troopers) by that point. Rajneesh, alias “Osho,” was still very popular in Germany, due in part to his comments in the German magazine Der Spiegel, which were widely interpreted as being pro-Hitler. Many young Germans, who were looking for a strong and charismatic leader, were thrilled by his words. Those who lost loved ones during World War II were justifiably shocked.
Even in the early 1970s in Bombay, Rajneesh made careless statements which could easily be interpreted as being pro-Hitler and pro-fascist. In one lecture on “esoteric groups” he claimed that Adolf Hitler had been telepathically propped up by an occult Buddhist group that Rajneesh himself was in contact with. During World War II it is well known that a number of Brahmin Indian yogis and Japanese “Zen masters” had supported the Axis cause and the extermination of the “inferior races,” so Rajneesh's claim was not entirely surprising, if not totally believable.
In Poona, Rajneesh gave an infamous lecture in which he stated that Jews had given Hitler “no choice” but to exterminate them. In his last years Rajneesh declared that “I have fallen in love with this man (Adolf Hitler). He was crazy, but I am crazier still.” Rajneesh said that he wanted his sannyasins “to take over the world” and that he had studied Hitler to gain insight into how to accomplish the task. For a man who portrayed himself as the world's smartest, highest, and greatest soul, such remarks were proof to me that his drug use had destroyed the quality of his mind.
Rajneesh's comments about Hitler could be discounted as obnoxious but largely harmless hot air if it were not for the fact that he put many of Hitler's techniques into practice. Rajneesh used Hitler's “big lie” method of mind control very effectively, and he demanded total surrender from his troops (disciples). Rajneesh condoned illegal spying on his own followers and used informants to weed out the disloyal. Ma Anand Sheela, his personal secretary, turned the tables on Rajneesh by bugging Rajneesh's trademark high-backed chair, a betrayal his “third eye” never detected. The Oregon police later found Rajneesh's illegally taped conversations, but due to rules of evidence they could not be used against him in a court of law. The tapes were reported to be highly damning as to Rajneesh's culpability in much of the commune's day to day illegal activities.
Rajneesh turned many of his disciples into the equivalent of armed Brownshirts. I have received letters from several of Rajneesh's former security guards who admitted they had fallen under the spell of fascism and now regretted their behavior and attitudes. One wrote that he did not even know how to meditate, and that the thrill of power was what kept him loyal to his great leader. In Poona, Rajneesh guards beat up an annoying local resident, his hands held behind his back as the guards pummeled him. In Oregon, Rajneesh guards were armed to the teeth with handguns and military style semiautomatic assault rifles. Rajneesh was never an admirer of Mahatma Gandhi, the great Indian pacifist, but he did have a unhealthy fascination with Adolf Hitler, as well as the United States Army General, George Patton. According to Hugh Milne (Shivamurti), Rajneesh watched the movie Patton over and over again on his big screen projection television at his ranch house in Oregon.
Perhaps Rajneesh's worst personal trait was that he could dish it out but he could not take it. He constantly put his disciples through great physical hardships, which resulted in serious illness and even death for some, yet he himself lived in luxury and could not endure physical discomfort without complaining loudly like a baby. After his arrest on October 28th, 1985, at the Charlotte/Douglas International Airport in North Carolina, Rajneesh was interviewed by ABC television news. He began his jailhouse interview by crying in a shrill voice about his less than royal accommodations in the slammer. His high pitched whining was so weird and annoying that Saturday Night Live, NBC's late night comedy television show, used the footage sarcastically as a joke about “God” complaining.
During Rajneesh's jailhouse appearance on the ABC television show Nightline, Rajneesh gave evasive and dishonest answers to all of Ted Koppel's questions, and he behaved as an unusually pompous and inept politician caught red handed at illegal activity. Rajneesh claimed that he was not responsible for any of the crimes committed at the commune because he was “in silence.” In proven fact, although Rajneesh had stopped giving public lectures for a time, he had never stopped talking to Ma Anand Sheela and other close disciples. Rajneesh was always the ultimate authority at the commune, even though Sheela committed some of the most serious crimes behind his back.
Rajneesh's favorite Rolls-Royce dealer stated that “the Bhagwan” had spent hours on the telephone talking to him about his often weekly purchases of new automobiles. All of his over 90 Rolls-Royces were paid for from general commune funds on his direct orders, not “gifts” from outsiders as he would later try to claim. Rajneesh was the only person who wanted the cars and he was the only person allowed to drive them. After bankrupting the commune, he claimed that the automobiles were owned by the commune, not by him.
In his Nightline interview, Rajneesh pretended not to know that he was leaving the United States during his attempt to escape an impending Federal arrest warrant on racketeering and immigration charges. Rajneesh's defense was that he was innocently sleeping when police boarded the private jet he had hired to fly to Bermuda. Rajneesh said that he thought Bermuda was just another American state, and that he was going on vacation to rest and to escape “death threats.” The authorities later learned that a Rajneesh disciple with ties to the United States Justice Department had tipped off Rajneesh about his impending arrest. His own sannyasins had not even known that he had left the commune until they learned from the media of the arrest of Rajneesh and several followers at the North Carolina airport. The sad fact was their great “enlightened” guru had secretly abandoned his own disciples, leaving them to face the music all on their own. The luggage of Rajneesh and his companions was searched and found to contain a bag of cash, a box of expensive jewel encrusted watches, and a handgun. [see pictures of the downfall of Rajneesh]
The Rajneesh cult had little luck winning over American television viewers. Ma Anand Sheela disgraced herself on Nightline weeks earlier by bursting into loud obscenities, forcing Ted Koppel to take her off the air. Saturday Night Live later broadcast a skit about an auction with actor Randy Quaid selling off “the Bhagwan's” over 90 Rolls-Royce automobiles. Years later, the The Simpsons, the FOX television network's wildly popular cartoon show, produced a spoof of Rajneesh that depicted a white gloved guru driving his Rolls-Royce down a muddy commune road as his disciples felt joy at eating his road dirt. In the cartoon, the great guru tried to escape the commune with bags of cash in a homemade peddle driven flying machine.
“When it comes to gurus, take the best and leave the rest.” – Ramamurti Mishra
During my last visit to the Poona ashram in 1988, Rajneesh was in silence because he was angry at his own disciples. He wanted his sannyasins to demonstrate in the streets against some Indian officials who had spoken out against him. Wisely, no one was interested in creating a new confrontation. This spell of sanity among the flock irritated Rajneesh, who canceled public talks as punishment. I was thus only able to see him on video tape.
On the taped lecture, Rajneesh was ranting emotionally, and factually incorrectly, about how the police in the United States had stolen his collection of jewel encrusted ladies' watches. He said they would never be able to wear them in public because his sannyasins would see the watches on their wrists at airports, train stations, etcetera, and start screaming out loudly that “you stole Bhagwan's watch!” His words and manner were so childishly irrational that he reminded me of the suicidal cult leader, Jim Jones. This crazy old man, now called “Osho,” was a far cry from the serene, dignified, and highly eloquent Acharya Rajneesh I had met years earlier.
Obviously, Rajneesh was not “egoless” as he had often claimed. The human brain is a biologically created thinking machine that has evolved for both personal self-preservation and survival of the species. The ego, which is a selfish motivating force, is needed to protect our colony of living cells (the physical body) from danger and to keep our cells replenished with food and water. If you did not have an ego, you would not be able to think, speak, or find food, shelter, and clothing.
Functional magnetic resonance imaging scans (fMRI scans) of Tibetan monks and Hindu yogis have shown that during deep meditation the parts of the brain that gives us a sense of location in time and space are less active. If you slow down the thought process, and at the same time reduce the brain's sense of location, consciousness loses both its content and its boundaries. You feel infinite, timeless, and empty. This feeling of an infinite Void gives the false impression that ego no longer exists. Egolessness is an illusion because the ego function is a fundamental part of the basic physical structure of the brain itself. Ego cannot be lost unless your brain dies, which will cause your entire body to die.
Many enlightened humans have become fooled by the reduction of the space localization function of the brain and believed they no longer had personal selfishness that could cause trouble. Meher Baba spent much of his life bragging about how great he was, yet in his boundaryless consciousness he felt no personal ego. [see picture of Meher Baba] Meher Baba even proclaimed to the world that “No one loves me as much as I deserve to be loved.” In truth, Meher Baba was very egocentric and he should have realized that even the brain phenomena we call “enlightenment” is no excuse for bragging. The same fundamental misjudgment plagued Rajneesh. He became fooled into thinking that he was above arrogance and greed, but that was simply not the case. The ego is hard wired into our neural pathways and cannot be destroyed unless the physical body dies. [see the scientific study of 'self'']
Even enlightened humans have to mind their manners and realize that the Atman is the wondrous phenomena they should promote, not their own temporary personalities. Ramana Maharshi had the right approach in this regard, and that is one reason he is still beloved by all. Ramana Maharshi promoted the Atman, the universal cosmic consciousness, but never his own mortal body and mind. [see photo of Ramana Maharshi]
Rajneesh's spectacular energy was proof that he was enlightened in the Eastern, esoteric sense of the word. The Eastern, esoteric definition of 'enlightenment' is an energy phenomena, gained
Great insights so far Urban and loved the Kissinger /fields quotes…
so what did you do on day 1 then?
how is the friendly smiling faces of indoctrination doing?
will they discuss the use of bio weapons in the states?
will they talk about their gods drug abuse?
what was the hiv test in aid of?
what was the rest of the medical for?
please tell us
No mention of any of that Urban….
Maybe in one of the seminars
컨트 -
only by those who are totally open to the infinite power of the universe. The Western definition is simply to be a very wise man, which Rajneesh, in my opinion, was not.
Even after returning to Poona, Rajneesh continued his Valium and nitrous oxide use and seemed unable to learn from his own mistakes. Rajneesh had often branded his critics as “idiots,” yet in his final years Rajneesh had no sane voice inside himself to say No! Enough is enough! Like a deranged alcoholic, Rajneesh could not stop his own self-destructive behavior, and the quality of his judgment dropped to below that of even the most ordinary unenlightened human being. Rajneesh had used the myth of Tantra to rationalize his dishonesty and selfishness, and now he could not stop. Earlier in life, Rajneesh had skipped out of paying a hotel bill, cheated a real estate agent out of a commission, and obtained millions of dollars from his own disciples through lies and fraud. In the end, Rajneesh had become a hopeless drug addict as well, and no amount of spiritual rationalizations could alter that fact.
Rajneesh's lifelong teaching had been that enlightenment is a state of perfect egolessness which brought about wisdom, compassion, and in his unique case, total infallibility. In the last months of his life, Rajneesh, now renamed “Osho,” finally admitted that the ego could not be destroyed, only “observed.” The very basis of his demand for total surrender of his disciples was that the ego contaminated followers had to submit their will to the perfect Master, because only the perfect Master had no ego and thus could do no wrong. If this were not true then why should anyone surrender to another fallible and corruptible human ego?
Rajneesh even finally admitted that there is no reincarnation, and that the very concept of reincarnation was just a “misinterpretation” of other phenomena. This shocking admission meant that his previous frequent claims of being a famous guru in past lives were pure fiction, designed to impress, manipulate, and control his disciples. Rajneesh's main teaching was based on souls, reincarnation, and achieving freedom from rebirth (moksha) through spiritual practice. His massive drug intake seemed to act as a truth serum at times, allowing admissions of truths that he had previously kept secret in order to remain in control of his cult empire. The course of Rajneesh's life and his drug induced admissions proved to me that his most basic teachings were wrong and a lie. [see Do you have a soul?]
In his last days, Osho argued with his doctors to ignore their medical ethics and give him even more nitrous oxide. Osho rationalized his drug addiction just as a teenage boy might if caught smoking marijuana by his mother. The God “Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh” had fallen down to the stumble-drunk Osho, and a substantial number of his disciples were so addicted to his artfully seductive words and false image that they could not see what was happening right in front of their own eyes. In late 1989, in a final bizarre act, Osho ordered his dentists to remove most of his teeth for no legitimate medical reason. If Osho had suspected that the mercury fillings in his teeth were causing him health problems, he could have easily had the old fillings replaced with modern white plastic dental fillings. Why Osho wanted to have so many teeth removed is a mystery to this day. Needless to say, their removal did nothing to improve his health.
In the years after Osho's death, the Poona ashram has been turned into a “cashram” and is run for profit. Color Puncture, Tantric Tarot, encounter groups, and every crackpot scam in the book is being peddled by Osho disciples for large sums of money. I think back to the day when the just turned 40 year old Acharya Rajneesh instructed a Japanese woman that “Meditation must not be made into a business.” The corrupt means have gotten so far out of hand that the original intent of the ends has long been forgotten. It would be wonderful to believe that enlightened men were perfect in every way. That would make life simpler and sweeter, but it would be fiction, not fac
This account is very weird, on one hand the author acknowledges him as extremely sick physically and on the other hand berates him for the side effects of the medication.
Osho was definitely enlightened and exceptionally articulate. Buddha, Edward Bach, Mohammed and others who were enlightened were nowhere as articulate as him and one is unable to grasp the essence of life from their writings. Infact some of these enlightened messiahs being uneducated left behind religions with unscaleable practices and these have gone on to become the bane of life in today's world.
Osho's message on the other hand was extremely well delivered and contemporary. He repeatedly emphasised that he is not creating any “ism” and warned people about “isms”.
I suppose in the end, no one is perfect, even if they are enlightened, but to write him off and not experience his message is to deny yourself of a tremendous wealth of understanding.
the wealth of understanding being
'how to self appoint yourelf as a guru, break the law, build up massive personal wealth and get laid while masquerading as a 'guru'
RYK
are you denying he was a crook?
are you denying he was off his head on drugs?
do you not think is retreat is a scam to seperate people from their money in the name of mysticism?
crook and drugs is not relevant. The message exists and can easily be distilled from the clutter by someone even with half a brain.
I disagree RYK
Why would anyone want to take any moral guidance from a man who refuses to respect any moral code at all. What 'authority' does he have other than self promoted?
drugs are definitely relevant.
would you take a spiritual message off someone high on angel dust or crack?
neither would I
ironic that the phrase half a brain is used. the amount of nitrous oxide and valium he took that is all he had left
he wasn't issuing moral guidance, but was triggering self realization. Infact he does not issue any guidance at all in any of his teachings. He tries to point out that this is a dream and that the meaning of life is meaningless.
so this is a dream eh?
nonsense.
RYK you appear to not need the services of a nurse- do you really believe life is a dream? if so I challenge you to give me any material goods you have collected in your dream and I will then propel you to the next level of consciousness.
deal??
sorry, late reply:
yes, this is a dream, my dream. I have dreamt that I am alive and my world is filled with all kinds of people and things.
This logical answer can be reached by thinking about what happens upon death, what happens upon non-existence? If my senses do not exist then the universe does not exist either.
Or does one believe in the Super-Mario-Bothers/Religious concept of death: going to live at the next level? So my frail sick body at the age of 85, will become a fit new body at a level called heaven or hell, where I will be surrounded by former relatives, magical beings and virgins to whom my wife will have no objection ?
Urban does your offer of
'taking any material goods RYK has collected in his dream and I will then propel you to the next level of consciousness.'
Is that like a Tony Soprano type role of steal and destroy ?
cue tony soprano style speech
'it means my people will reach out to him and liberate him of his goods. he is after all a friend of ours'
Yes, life actually IS a dream !

Christopher Calder, Krishna Christ, and his Lying or Misinformed “Lost Truth”.
A response to Mr. Calder´s “Osho, Bhagwan Rajneesh and the Lost Truth”
By Anthony Thompson Ph. D.
English is not my first language, so forgive my misspellings and grammatical mistakes.
Mr calder, according to his own information, became a disciple of Osho back in 1970`s during the time that Osho resided in Woodlands apartments in Mumbai, then Bombay. He came to India in November 19 1970. Osho gave him the name of Sw. Krishna Christ.
“I was Rajneesh's second Western sannyasin just behind Ma Yoga Prem. Check out a first addition copy of 'The Silent Explosion.' I came up with the title and wrote the introduction. My sannyasin name was Swami Krishna Christ.”( Calder 2006).
He did not particularly appreciate the name and he complained to Osho about it. Here is an excerpt from a letter from Osho to Sw Krishna Christ, in answer to his complaint about the name, reproduced from “A Cup of Tea” (letter 327):
The ego is the seriousness, the disease,
and the tao, the egoless existence,
is the bliss, the ecstasy.
That is why I have given you a name so absurd!
But I have given it to you knowingly.
I have given it to you so that you may
never be identified with it.
The name is so absurd
that you will have to remain
nameless and nobody behind it,
and the name is such that
not only others but you yourself
will be able to laugh at it.
Swami Krishna Christ!
His name then was Walter Pfuetze. In 1971 his adopted father took a group of students to Woodlands Building in Bombay and met Achayra Rajneesh face to face. That is why his name was listed in early books as Swami Krishna Christ, aka “Walter Pfuetze.” He changed his name in 1976 to Christopher Calder because he did not like German names. Besides he was British and was interested in the artist Alexander Calder.
Somewhere along the way he got disillusioned and disappointed with Osho and wrote a fiery article against him.
Mr. Calder is entitled to have and state his own personal opinions or beliefs regarding Osho, his teachings and vision. As far as I know, Mr. Calder is a “simple student of meditation”, as he likes to call himself, and has no formal training in neuropsychology or neurophysiology. Therefore, his knowledge on the neurological functions of meditation, whether it's biologically or spiritually based, he got from books, magazines, or in the worst case, internet. I do not have information of his being part not any neurological research team or his having taken part of any field study about this subject. Personally I do not have more scientific knowledge of his affirmations than any normal “student of meditation”, however, some ideas fit with my personal experience. And I consider some ideas expressed by Mr. Calder to be brilliant. As I am not a neurologist either, I will not discuss such matters. And I will not discuss this because disagreeing or not on these points is not the matter of this article, but the misinformation and lies that he states in his article “Osho, Bhagwan Rajneesh, and the Lost Truth”, which are indeed matter of further consideration on my part.
Mr. Calder gives the idea of his being an intimate disciple. However, No inner circle disciple from 1975 on had heard his name or remembers him from that time. This gives me the idea that he might have seen Osho personally during the time in the woodlands apartments, as many people did, but not after that, which is when the issues he discuss in his article supposedly happened. Therefore he is not an eyewitness to such events.
I do not agree or like everything that Osho said or did in his life. I am aware that the man did not compromise in any point and he did what he considered appropriate for him to do, and did not care about what people thought of him. I also know that most of the time it was “his way or the highway” with the people around him and his ideas of how things had to be done. However, as a researcher of his work, I feel compelled to clarify and refute the points and arguments used in Mr. Calder's article that I think are simply not true or highly misinformed.
I am not a disciple and I do not consider Osho my master, but I can not hide my admiration for the old man. I think his contribution to expanding human awareness has no parallel in human history. There have been other masters, but no one has been so effective in reaching so many people during his lifetime as Osho did. Also, his insistence on laughter, enjoying life and humor as religious qualities makes him stand alone in the world of mystics. Finally, he helped to liberate, sexually and from social conditioning vast quantities of spiritual seekers that would have, otherwise, ended up ranking with some ascetic, repressive guru, and thus contributing with more repression and self-torture to this world.
I have researched on this subject for over 22 years now and I have interviewed a lot of current and former disciples, visitors and friends on this subject. I have been 8 times in his commune in India, now called Osho meditation resort. So, I consider myself an expert on this theme: Osho´s life and work.

Thanks for sharing Satrakshita and welcome to GO! 꽃 냄새 ....
Well Jim, if I was there in Pune what I would do is pass on the retreat, check into the afore mentioned Blue Diamond Hotel, then arrange to meet my old buddies Macarand Balkundi and Shirish Shewalkar and get on the sauce while talking about old times in India and China (they both worked with me in China as well as Pune and Chennai), I think I'd be much more uplifted and refreshed after that and then up to the vineyards in the hills where there are a few nice resorts with swimming pools and great food. Sorry mate, retreats and robes are not my thing.
If you need all that to 'sort you head' out then you should be thinking about a real bonna fide funny farm.
We're right behind the Blue Diamond Hotel and I'll check it our for sure Gareth, no worries.
They don't lock the gates here…
WIBBLE.
Jim, also get down to ABC Farms, nice place round the corner from the Ashram
Ok will do – I'll check that out as well.
hmmmmmm typical cultist apologist behaviour
discredit the person writing rather than all his claims
ie- the bloke against us is not creditable
but lets skirt over durg abuse, bioterror attacks, fraud, drug smuggling, using gullible people to amass a fortune
A nice article on the weirdo Mr. Calder – a former follower of Osho. Too funny – Calder always sounds like the scorned lover.

Osha IS sayings
Mr. Calder quotes Osho on several occasions. The way he does this is malicious and clearly his intention is not that of an expert detached observer, but that of a resentful lover. His intention is to create an image of Osho that becomes a pass way for his own feelings of anger and hurt.
To be hurt or angry is Mr. Calder's prerogative. However, to twist facts, quotes and ideas to spread the understanding that we are facing an evil character is just a manipulative and indirect way of giving an outlet to his own personal vendetta.
In my understanding it is utterly nonsense to pick up a few statements from Osho's more than 8500 hours of talks and evaluate him based on that. I can't believe that a person like him, who claims to know him since ages, can do it. And a funny thing is, Osho himself never denied being contradictory, on a contrary he glorified it. So, to this day to take a quote from osho means nothing in itself. You can get the man to advice you on gardening, wall papers or sex. Out of a whole chapter reference a quote means nothing.
He quotes (without a direct book or chapter reference) that Osho loved Hitler. I have searched the entire library of his talks and that quote is nowhere to be found. Supposedly he took this quote from the discourses “I am the gate”. And certainly Mr. Calder appears as one of the editors of the first edition. No where he said “I loved Hitler”. What he says is something that is of public domain, and that is that Hitler had an alliance with Tibetan esoteric groups. In fact the Tibetans supported the third Reich. Where do we think “the swastika” came from? It is an old esoteric symbol used both by Jains and Tibetans. The Nazis just turned it around.
The only thing that I have found is an interview in Der Spiegel. I have seen the video (The lasUestament july 19, 1985), and Osho says to both journalists, Erick Widdeman and Reiner Weber, when he is asked about Hitler “I love the Man. He was Crazy”, jokingly to see their reactions. To what both German journalist look shocked. Later he adds that “he considers the man to be completely immoral and a murderer”, and he compares him with mahatma Gandhi. Not to speak positive about Hitler, but to show how immoral mahatma Gandhi was, in his view, for being against technology in a poor country like India and preaching celibacy and self-torture. Now, the article in Der Spiegel, edited of course, show Osho comparing Hitler and Gandhi as saying both were great men. “Hitler was like Gandhi” can be read as the article heading. This is the way how things are distorted by the yellow press.
I have found some other quotes about Hitler and Gandhi and his arguments about it
“Just think: if Adolph Hitler had been a cripple or had amoebas or was continuously getting heJ2.Qti…tis, the world would have been saved. In fact, Adolph Hitler was against smoking, against alcohol. He was a pure vegetarian like Mahatma Gandhi. In fact, both men have many things in common. Both believed in going early to bed and both believed in getting up early in the morning. Both believed that vegetarian food is great. Both believed that smoking is bad, alcohol is bad. Both were great saints! Both were equally dangerous and psychopathic. The only difference was that Mahatma Gandhi had the Jaina characteristic very much developed in him — he was only ten percent Hindu, ninety percent Jaina — so he tortured himself. Adolph Hitler had the Mohammedan characteristic developed in him:
he tortured others, he didn't torture himself. But both tortured. Whom they tortured is not of that much significance. They both were enjoying torture …. “(1980, Zen: Zest, Zip, Zap and Zing)
To torture oneself or to torture others, both are diseases — the very idea to torture. Somebody is an Adolph Hitler, he tortures others; somebody is a Mahatma Gandhi, he tortures himself. Both are in the same boat — maybe standing back to back, but standing in the same boat. Adolph Hitler's joy is in torturing others, Mahatma Gandhi's joy is in torturing himself, but both are violent. The logic is the same — their joy depends on torture. Their direction is different, but the direction is not the question, their mind has the same attitude: torture. You respect a person who tortures himself because you don't understand the logic of it. Adolph Hitler is condemned allover the world and Gandhi is worshipped allover the world, and I am simply puzzled. How is it possible? — because the logic is the same. (1977, Tao: The Pathless Path)
In addition, there are of course innumerable times where Osho describes Hitler as a pygmy, as occupying the lowest rank a human being can sink to, etc.
Misquoting Osho, or quoting him out of context, is one of the favorite and most despicable pastimes of Mr. Calder.
A quote of two lines means nothing out of a context nowadays. As an example: Osho said “esoteric means bullshit” from the talks “From Bondage to freedom” in 1985. And “everything that is valuable is esoteric” from the talks “Beyond jJ~b..Q1Qgy” in 1986.
Osho himself once said “You need not agree with what I say; you can only agree with me directly. There is no need to come through what I say. I say a thousand and one things and I contradict myself everyday. If you start agreeing with me you will go mad! You cant agree; nobody cant agree with a what I say. You can only agree with a few points but those will not be all that I say. Contradiction is my method. I go on shattering. I go on shocking, offending people; that is may method, to shatter people's beliefsH(Osho, 1980, The Open Secret).
Therefore, I think Osho's words need to be taken not as a comprehensive philosophy, but rather as a seductive invitation to self-explore and understand the nature of mind, body, emotions, and the role of meditation in this search.
Besides, the discourses were given many times as responses to individuals, and in several occasions he was answering not only the question but the questioner himself/herself. I can remember his speaking against the women's lib movement to a radical feminist and then saying the exact opposite to male chauvinist south American. Or talking about god to an atheist and then saying it was a lie to a catholic priest. (liThe ultimate risk”, 1980 by Satya Bharti)
The “Cult” Story
Also, Mr. Calder speaks of the sannyas movement referring to it as a “cult”. I do not agree with his statements of Osho' s movement being a cult. This is why: Some of the pre¬requisites to have a cult is to have systematic body or set of beliefs. A complete belief system that explains everything in terms of itself. As Mr. Calder's knows, and has consistently argued so, Osho contradicted himself a lot. It is practically impossible to create a cult out of his words. The only consistent idea in his talks is that of awareness and meditation. The rest is simply not systematic enough to do anything with it. If you are going tojoin a sect, you need to have something to believe … some promise of paradise or
future enlightenment. You don't join a sect that tells you that “you are already a Buddha, enlightened” (from “The heart sutra”) and that you just “need to come back home. However you are, you are beautiful the way your are” (from “The Goose is Out”).
My understanding is that Osho' s work was mainly deprogramming people against their self constructed ideas about love, soiritualitv, growth, relationships, etc. In fact if you want you can find statements where he speaks of karma and reincarnation and then another statement where he says there is no soul, no reincarnation (see “Reincarnation a Misconception” discourse given in 1989) , and that karma is just a way of social control.
He speaks of god and then says there is no such a thing and it is just a” teddy bear” for fearful people.
Second, you need rituals that people, old and new, can join to. And nowadays there is nothing like that. Even the celebration of his death and birthday, and his pictures, or the “sannyas giving” have been removed as official celebrations in the Osho resort in India. Anyone can go there and verify and see if there is any “blind cult” happening.
Third, a cult does not admit dissent, and Mr. Calder and I have been writing and discussing in a sannyas owned website and the quotes he took from Parmartha' s article are also discussions criticizing Osho in sannyas websites.
Sannyasins tend to be free, open minded, closed, fanatics, or careless … as any human being can be. But there is no official enforced dogma on believing or agreeing on anything. The proof of this is that sannyasins are the single group of spiritual seekers that you can find practically at the feet of any master, or new therapy or mind expanding method. You can see them in _shamanism, ayurveda, Kalindi 'Sf Diamond logos, work, etc, etc, in addition to their ranking with different therapeutic schools.
Fourth, you need someone to believe in, some savior, and Osho himself advised his disciples not to believe in him unless it was their direct experience (Golden nuggets). And repeatedly he told his disciples he was “no savior or prophet or only begotten son of god, just an ordinary human being, like you” (Osho 1985, Interviews with the Press). Or I/a master is not someone who has archive anything. a master is someone who has discovered that there is nothing to Achievel/(Dying for enlightenment, 1979, By Bernard Gunther)
My research shows that Osho was no ” Deepak Chopra”. The man was a rebellious iconoclast who did and said what he thought was his truth. He demolished the ~ churc-.b, The Islam and any form of organized religion; he spoke against mother Theresa, Gandhi (precisely for being against technology, which Osho strongly advocated, not as Mr. Calder's affirmation in his article).
Osho, was a man who saw no use for rituals, discipline and all the self-torture that is going on in the name of renunciation or spirituality. The development of self-awareness was his flag. More over, he spoke against Indian traditions. Reason enough for the attempted murder against him in early eighties in Poona, by a fanatic Hindu during a public talk.
He thought of the meeting of east and west, of materialism and spirituality. “Zorba the Buddha”, he called his “new man”. And certainly he did not live the life of an ascetic. But beyond all, he helped his disciples and friends to be independent and rebellious individuals.
Calder's suppositions
Calder states “Rajneesh's poor health and strange symptoms were a product of real neurological and i..m..m..!.!.rre-.S_¥.S..tem dysfunction, not some esoteric super sensitivity caused by his enlightenment. Rajneesh also had Type II diabetes, asthma, and severe back pain.” According to him and his conclusions Osho had “Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS)”. Now this is simply his own idea, not based in any medical diagnosis made by any certified doctor.
He also states: “Rajneesh used prescription drugs, mainly Valium (diazeoam), as an analgesic for his aches and pains and to counter the symptoms of dysautonomia (dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system). He took the maximum recommended dose of 60 milligrams per day. Rajneesh also inhaled nitrous oxide (N20) mixed with pure oxygen, which he claimed increased his creativity. The nitrous oxide probably did relieve the sensation of severe exhaustion and suffocation patients with Cb.ronlc~ ~ome often feel, but it did nothing for the quality of his judgment. Naive about the power of drugs, and overconfident of his ability to fight off their negative effects, Rajneesh succumbed to addiction.”
Now this information that is stated as a “fact” comes, in fact, from second hand sources which are Hugh Milne's book “The god that failed” and an Interview that Sheela, former Osho secretary, denounced by the master, gave to Stern magazine in Germany and 60 minutes in CBS in USA. Sheela was angry at Osho. She was actually enraged with the man, after all it was his accusations that threw her into jail. And also it was a way to undermine Amrito' s (Osho' s doctor) work. We should not forget that she tried to kill him at the ranch. And this has been documented. Now, a simple reflection would be to try to drive a car each day in the awful ranch roads with 60 milligrams of valium in the body and not to crash into the hundreds of sannyasins standing by the side of the road to greet him. Consulted eye witnesses to these two accusations refuted Milne's and Sheela's accusations, and of course, Calder's statements:
Devageet, Osho personal dentist from Poona one, to the end of Osho' s life stated: “Osho never used nitrous oxide, I used it, as his dentist, during his dental treatment sessions. Osho, as other masters have demonstrated (see Baba Neem karolie taking a massive dose of LSD on his first meeting with Guru Ram Dass, and showing no effects whatsoever J showed that the effects of Nitrous Oxide during his dental treatment had no effects of diminishing his clarity and awareness. He repeatedly showed that he could easily use the physiological effects of relaxation for a creative purpose, hence the three books dictated while in the deJltaLcbaj[: “Notes of a Madman”, “Books I have loved”, and “Glimpses of a Golden Childhood”. Having said that I can speak about aspects which do not betray that trust. Nitrous Oxide is a valid and valued analgesic and anesthetic agent, as you know,
and it still provides the basis of anesthetic techniques because of its proven track record of safety and efficacy. It is a fact too that people have used it for leisure purposes. Osho was given nitrous oxide in a purely cieatal. context /I
Also, Sw. Jalal the dental equipment technician stated the following: “during the Ranch and in Poona 2 I was the dental room technician, responsible for looking after the equipment. Unless Osho was having surreptitious sessions without my knowledge, he wasn't using gas on a daily, or even weekly basis.” This is to the claim that Mr. Calder made to me that Devageet had told that Osho used “N02 for months on end”. Which is just a lie or a misinformation.
In his article he claims to know that Osho took LSD and was drugged with N02 and Valium all the time, in his ranch house in USA. He had no access to any eyewitness of such
accounts. The only people who had personal access to Osho in those days were Devaraj, Devageet, ashu, Nityamo, Vivek, Sheela, Hasya, Shunyo, nirupa and later anando, neelam and jayesh. None of these people have ever stated anything remotly like this … and in fact have refuted Mr. Calder's accusations as fictions and fabrications on his part.
Also. To my reply that the N02 was used in dental sessions only he replied “No one dictates books while having dentat surge!:y, and no dental surgery lasts for months.” First, the books were dictated in “the context” of dental sessions. It does not mean that he was speaking with the drill in his mouth … which is quite difficult indeed. We do not know how long the team of Devaraj, Devageet and their assistant Ashu stayed together listening to Osho. Second, two of the so called Books “Notes of a mad man” and “Books I have loved” are actually small pamphlets. Consisting of 13 sessions the first and 16 sessions the second. Both are small books, although they have been printed to look like glossy hard bounds in recent editions, the original ones were paperbacks with colorful pictures in them with a size not exceeding a pocked book. If you read out loud what is said in each session it would not take you more than 8 minutes and in some cases no more than 2. The other book “Glimpses of a golden childhood” is actually a thick lengthy book that was spoken at the beginning of Osho' s residence in Rajneeshpuram , Oregon. Although it is considerable bigger than the other two books. If you read any chapter out loud it will not take you more than 15 minutes. Those are the lengths he spoke for each session. So we can guess and speculate that in the first years of the ranch, lets say, 1982, 1983, and the beginning of 1984 ( the books were published in late '84, early '85) theses books were taken from the “context” of dental sessions were the anesthetic used by Osho' s dentist was N02. None of this is a proof “of dental sessions lasting for months” or “Osho, N02 addiction.”
And a final point I would like to make, why should the master, with his own commune, go to all the trouble of setting up dental sessions and having his teeth removed just because he enjoys having laughing gas? I certainly wouldn't go to all that trouble, I'd just set up a bottle next to my armchair and get blasted in peace and quiet. So, why did he call any dental sesions? He could not open the faucet?
Mr. Calder uses in his article a text From Jim Weaver where this congressman states that he saw nitrous oxide spigots by the side of the bed of Rajneesh' s room in Rajneeshpuram in USA. This Weaver text that Christopher keeps referring to and which is available at http://home.att.net/ ””medi tationjWeaver.html is obviously not reliable. Just one paragraph above the famous spigots, Weaver writes, with seemingly remarkable clarity of memory:
“Two days later, the Bhagwan and Ma Anand Sheela absconded from the Big Muddy, attempting to flee the country, and leaving their acolytes high and dry. On the same day, the two Prineville BLM chiefs announced their resignations. H
There is just a little problem … nothing like this happened. Sheela left on her own for Germany, Osho stayed in Oregon and denounced her to the press. Now I am supposed to believe this kind of witness?
That's before we come to telling apart, say, an oxygen spigot for a known asthma sufferer from a nitrous oxide spigot … if indeed there were any spigots at all.
I exchanged some posts in a website with Mr. Calder and when I produced the evidence and arguments of true eyewitnesses to the events he was reporting in relation to Osho' s drua addicJLoD he wrote to me: “When I visited the Oregon ranch in the 1980s I could tell he was on drugs just by looking at him. No one even had to tell me.” (Calder, 2007). 이
was his final eyewitness proof. He saw him with 15.000 thousand people, perhaps no less than 40 meters away, I do not think he got front seat at the ranch. And he “could tell” he was on drugs. 와우! Even I can not tell all the time when my friends are on drugs in parties at my own house. But, again, perhaps I am just not so perceptive.
When I discussed this point with Mr. Calder he called me “dishonest, crazy, fanatic and neurotic .. and in denial”. Then he proceeded to call me “Insane” and that I have to go “back to my straight jacket”, to finally add that Osho “would have not liked me”. All through out our discussion, in different forums, he consistently insulted me and pushed aside my arguments saying I was an “insane cult follower”. All this, Simply because of my disagreeing with his second-hand information.
So, his ultimate proof is his perception of Osho. If he felt it…then, it must be true.
Mr. Calder sources
Most of his sources, as I said before, were the books written by two angry ex-disciples Sw. Shivamurti (Hugh Milne) and ma Satya Bharti. I have personally interviewed some people mentioned in Milne's Book and they have reassured me that many stories of his book are complete fabrications, like the story of the mango uses in tantra groups and the fact that he was Osho' s personal bodyguard. Milne was not Osho' s personal Bodyguard. He was Laxmi's. (Osho' s secretary at the time). Osho' s bodyguard was Sw. Vimalkirti. Milne was just guarding the Darshan sessions when Osho spoke to his disciples. He was the ahsram .QSt.eQp~, and had somehow a special position in Poona one, which was not where he found himself later in The Ranch in Oregon. He had to drive a bulldozer and obey the orders of Ma Anand Sheela, Osho's new secretary. He was the one who reported to have seen Osho inhaling Nitous Oxide in his house. He failed to see that that was the anesthetic being used in a dental session and not the recreational endeavor of the master. Actually, Hugh Milne's book should have been called “The Secretary who failed”, because all the problems reported in the book were with Sheela not Osho.
It is interesting to note that Hugh Milne (sw. Shivamurti) had m.llhiatric problems. He was admitted to a psychiatric hospital, and ended up consulting witches and trying to kill himself. (Milne 1986)
This is Mr. Calder's source, and key witness, together with the introduction to one of the books that Osho dictated from the dental sessions and under the effect of this anesthetic.
When I confronted Mr Calder with the quotes from Devageet, he just wrote that “Devageet was a crazy man” and so was I. Therefore my disagreeing with his second-hand information made me into a “fanatic cult follower”.
The other source of information is the Book “The Promise of Paradise” by Satya Bharti Franklin. She was an early disciple who wrote two previous celebratory books about the life in the ashram and his experiences with Osho. In her book, she speaks about the rumors of Osho touching, or having sex with his disciples early in Bombay. That is where Mr. Calder, together with Milne's stories constructed the idea that” ( He ) stated that he made love to his young female disciples because it would ensure their enlightenment in a future life” (Calder 2007).
This is sheer invention. Mr. Calder is not a witness to this account. Unless, of course, he was holding the camera while the master spoke this words and had sex in the privacy of his bedroom. I strongly doubt Mr. Calder was invited as a voyeur to such sessions.
I do not think that Osho was celibate, more over he overtly admitted not to be so, but still I have not find one single disciple to testify to have had sex with the man. I have however found accounts of people who heard other people saying they had sex with him and I have
no reason to doubt that.
Again, He did not preach celibacy. In fact he considered it a disease.
A quote of Osho himself speaking about his sex-life. It is in The Last Testament, Vol. 1, 22 July 1985 pm in Jesus Grove, and goes like this:
Q: HAVE YOU EVER BEEN CEUBATE'
A: Right now I am celibate, but if my health gets better I am not going to be celibate. I have never been celibate. I do not do anything against nature. Right now I am celibate not because celibacy has any value, but just because I am sick. I don't have any energy to make love to a woman and do all the gymnastics, no. I have enough energy to talk to my people, to talk to you. If I get healthy again, I promise you, I will not be celibate.
The Sheela Story
Both Milne and Bharti had serious conflicts with Sheela's fascist style in the Commune in USA. They both assumed that Osho was behind her actions. In fact she usually said that the “order comes from the chief” to convince someone to do something they felt their consciousness would not allow. So people thought it was a “devise” from the master. Now, Osho and his personal staff have clarified that many “orders” did not only not come from Him, but were deliberate moves on Sheela's part to expand her power to areas where it was weak, such as the inner circle of the personal staff around Osho.
This area that was not under her command in the commune. In fact the attempted murder of Osho' s doctor was a move in this direction.
Many people were expelled from the commune in Oregon and big international and prosperus communes like Medina in England and Sushila' s in Autralia, were closed down because they were too successful and independent from Sheela's regime. Osho knew nothing about it (we must remember he was not speaking in public or having personal contact with his disciples) and to all of them it was said that it was Osho' s order. Sheela's fascist style developed over time as a response to the intense antagonism that the commune created around them. There were 17 state agencies trying to get them out of there; the sign announcing the nearby commune was used as shooting target by the local resident of the area; the hotel they bought in Portland was bombed, and even there is convincing evidence that the CIA hired someone to kill Osho. All this has been documented in the books “Passage to America” by Max Brecher and, “The way of the heart” By Judith Thompson, and “rajneesh garden”, by Dell Murphy. Also, it can be checked Juliette Forman's accout of the time and Ms appletton 's Book. I do not justify Sheela's behaviour and I think she was criminally minded. But it certainly creates a context to view what these guys were facing. For further details see: { Or for a complete story of Osho' s commune see: http://www.ashe-prem.org/two/davisson.shtml
Also, in his article, Mr. Calder joins, or at least holds morally responsible, Osho' s arrest and deportation from USA with Sheela's crimes. What he fails to see is that all those crimes, the salmonella poisoning, the intent of murder of Osho' s doctor, DevaraL and the plot against the attorney general, the bugging of the commune, including Osho' sown room, were crimes committed by Sheela and her associates. These crimes were exposed by Osho and it was him who invited the FBI to investigate them in his own commune. Which ultimately lead to the capture of Sheela and her friends in Germany. If he had kept silent, no one would have ever guessed or known about them. We should know that the salmonella poisoning in The Dalles was attributed to “improper food handling” by the authorities. Now this is referred to by the media as “The only American case of Bio¬terrorism “.
We could argue that Osho had a poor eye for choosing his secretary or that she changed over time, or that he should have been more involved in controlling what she did in his name, but we can not accuse him of crimes that include him as a victim, such as the wire¬tapping of his own room. To think of Osho as omniscient or infallible is nothing but a god¬like father projection. He was a human being. Wise, awake, but a human being. He himself said when a journalist asked him “if he was enlightened how he did not know about theses crimes?”. His answer was “enlightenment means I know myself. It does not mean that I know that my room is being bugged” (Osho, Interviews with the press, 1985)
Osho IS factual “criminal” records
As far as criminal records is concerned, Osho' s criminal records (as Mr. Calder mentioned it to me) and reasons for his deportation are just two charges of immigration fraud. He was accused, First, of arranging sham marriages. And second, of lying on the tourist visa application, in the sense that he stated he did not intend to stay in the states and later he tried to stay.
It is just not possible for Osho to have arranged any marriage due to the fact that he did not see any disciples in private. Marriages were certainly arranged to allow foreign sannyasisn to live in the commune. But these are the sole responsibility of the people involved. To hold osho responsible for this is just stupid. it is as charging the Pope for any catholic staying ilelgally in Rome.
In relation to the second charge,according to his attorney, Niren, and the research he did, no one in the whole history of the United states has been even prosecuted by such “offense” and, what to say about the half a million dollar fine that he was forced to pay for his release.
To come to the US in a tuirist visa with the “hidden intention” of eventually applying for a permanent one is not a ” crime” that anyone, ever, has been chaged for.
The attorney general said when he was asked why Osho was not accused of the same crimes as Sheela that “I did not have any proof whatsoever linking Rajneesh to Sheela's crimes.” And “all we wanted was to dismantle the commune”. And he forgot to add that the complaint that lead to Sheela's arrest was filed by Osho himself.
In his article Mr. Calder says a that Osho lied about not knowing about the wire tapping. do not think he sent his room to be bugged. Also he did not denounce Sheela, as he states, when he suspected she was stealing money from him, but when she left the commune and people started coming up with the stories of her crimes … including the money stealing.
All through out his article Mr. Calder confuses facts with his personal opinion based on second hand information, and assumptions, such as when he quotes Sheela's statement on Osho using 60 milligrams of valium a day. Suddenly the cheat, liar criminal becomes a reliable source of information. How convenient.
The growth groups
In the beginning of his article he questions the development of growth groups in the ashram, saying that they have nothing to do with enlightenment or meditation or the search of truth and that the only reason for their inclusion in the activities was to bust the ashram's economy. What mr. Calder ignores is that these experiments, blending western humanistic psychotherapies with eastern mysticism became the base for further
developments in humanistic-transpersonal psychologies. This became the most important psycho-spiritual experiment in counter cultural psychology since the establishment of Esalen Institute in California, as it has been documented in the Spanish book De Esalen Poona. Osho y el camino de la psicologfa humanista-transpersonal. (”From Esalen to Poona. Osho and the development of humanistic- transpersonal psychology”) By JC Saez Editor, Santiago, Chile, by Vikrant A. Sentis. As a proof of this we had the pilgrimage to the ashram in Poona of hundreds of the most well known western humanistic psychotherapists and group leaders such as: Will Schutz, the creator of Encounter Groups; Bernard Gunther, bestselling author and creator of Esalen Massage and developer of Sensory Awareness; Richard price, disciple of Fritz Perls, co-founder of Esalen Institute; Leonard Zunnin and Andy Farber from the Neurological and Psychiatric American Board; David Boadella, developer of biosfntesis; John Bell, inventor of Unitive Psychology; Gerda Boyesen, inventor of Biodynamic Psychology; Dr, Yusson, creator of Humaniversity psychology; Thomas Thorbe, developer of the co-dependency work; Dr. Robert Birnbaum, disciple of Perls, Bernie and Carl Rogers, director of Odissey Center; Paul Lowe, founder of the British Association for Humanistic Psychology, Michael Barnett, renowned author and founder of PNP and Community Growth Center; Alexander Everent, developer of the Alfa Training and his disciple Werner Erhard, founder of Est Training; among hundreds of others. The complete list and their perils in Poona can be found in Mr. Sentis book. Some of theses people studied under Osho for a while and then went on their way, some others stayed up to this day.
The Rolls royce story
The main issue of controversy while Osho lived in the US was the ownership of 93 Rolls Royces. Everybody was shocked. But noone bothered to consider that there was something strange about the whole thing. Isn't strange that someone who supossedly would like to be considered a spiritual teacher, and gather follower as Mr. Calder believes, dares to have 93 rolls royces and be open and public about that? The normal thing would have been to try to pretend to be humble and ascetic. After all, that is our cultural conditioning around spirituallity, isn' it?
Well, I think OSHa HAD SOMETHING ELSE IN MIND: To make a joke out of amerian consumerism. Tom Robbins (The famous American novelist), check his interview in http://wwwyoutube.com/watch?v=Gg7IUM4ICrs . called this affair “the greatest spoof on american consumerism ever made”.
I think he was right. He was just calling the attention: he himself said “no one was listening to me in USA before the Rolls Royces came along. While their mouths are dropping open perhaps I can pour some truth in.”
Also, I think he was challenging our conditioning about spirituallity and materialism.
I do not think any spiritual master who would have liked to be appreciated would have made such a show … because it was a show with a fleet of cars. His intention was to say something else. The same about the watches, which by the way were made of quartz not diamonds … but the idea was that they would look like diamonds.
Calder 's death theory
Mr. calder argues that he thinks that Osho died of “the addiction effects” of N02. He said to me in our discussion “Rajneesh was destroyed by illness and by his own drug use … the official cause of his death was listed as heart failure, but there was much speculation he committed suicide. If he did commit suicide, I am sure they used morphine or barbiturates”. Now, these exceptional ideas come from Mr. Calder's talent to “feel” or
“tell” how people die. Because actually nobody knows for sure what killed the man. The doctors consulted thought that the case looked like heavy metal poisoning. As they could not trace anything in the blood, they thought of Thalium, as it can not be traced in the bloodstream after a while. This was told to Osho and then he and his personal staff concluded that the only place where this could have happened was while held in custody in USA for his immigration trial. It is a proven fact that he was held in a jail in Oklahoma under the false name of David Washington. It is assumed throughout Mr. Calder's article that Osho 'regularly used nitrous oxide' in the dental chair, without any clarification of what 'regularly' means. It could mean once or twice a year. But the assumption, or rather, the implication here is that it was on a daily basis. One does not get nitrous poisoning just by using it a few times a year. And yet there is absolutely no evidence that Osho used laughing gas more than that. Nor that he had nitrous poisoning. We are just asked to accept this as “fact”.
Mr. Calder says that the poisoning does not equate with thalium poisoning symptoms. Now, as far as I know, Mr. Calder is not a doctor and at the worst he could have got the information from internet. Now, in the webpage for thalium poisoning says “Note that Thallium poisoning symptoms usually refers to various symptoms known to a patient, but the phrase Thallium poisoning signs may refer to those signs only noticeable by a doctor.” Mr. Calder argument is that the main symptom for Thalium poisoning is hair loss. Well, Osho did loose his hair in huge quantities, as it was reported by Anando, his persobnal secretary. Usually the hair is not lost in the beard, but in the head, where Osho was certainly bald … and had been for some time. Here is a quote from Osho on the subject:
“Dr. Dhyan Yogi, immediately took my blood samples, urine samples, samples of my hair, and went to England, to Germany, to the best experts. The European experts suggest that after two years there is no poison, which can be detected in the body, but all the symptoms show that a certain poison has been given. No resistance against disease, falling weight without any reason, hair falling out without any reason, tingling sensations in the extremities, loss of appetite, tastelessness, nausea, the bone pain in my right
hand … One of the experts, a doctor from Germany had come twice to check my bone; he could not figure out what kind of disease it is – because there is no disease. The expert here – Dr. Hardikar, a man who loves me – has been here continuously watching for three months and has not been able to figure out why this pain should be there. The European experts in England and Germany have suggested a name of a certain poison, thalium. It is a poison of a family of poisons of heavy metals. It disappears from the body in eight weeks' time, but leaves its effects and destroys the body's resistance against diseases. And all the symptoms that I have told you are part of thalium poisoning. The American experts have suggested a different poison, which they think has been used by governments against rebellious individuals. The name of the poison is synthetic heroin. It is one thousand times more dangerous than ordinary heroin. All the symptoms are the same as with thalium, but the poison is more dangerous and after two years there is no possibility to find any trace of it in the body. The Japanese experts, who have been working in Hiroshima and Nagasaki on atomic radioactivity, have suggested that these symptoms can also be created in a more sophisticated way by radioactive exposure ¬either while I was asleep, or food can be exposed to radioactivity and there is no way to find any trace of it. One of the scientists who is immensely interested in me is coming within a week or two. He has been working for twenty years only on radioactivity. His suggestion is that the Americans, the bureaucracy in America, must have used the most sophisticated poisoning which leaves no trace. TOsho, November 6, 1987)
However. the doctors might have been wrong and the toxin used was not Thalium … or there was no toxin. 누가 알겠어. Diagnosis is not as infallible as the Pope. But the fact is that Osho died at 59 years of age and his health was certainly deteriorating since the US deportation. Now, Mr. Calder argument is that his death is the result of N02 addiction. Well, it has been already proved that the people who used this gas on him, used it only during dental sessions as anaesthtic. Therefore the possibility of being poisoned by N02 is out of question. We could argue that those people (His dentist and technician, and caretakers) are lying to protect Osho' s vice. But then, if we begin with that argument, then everybody could be lying, including myself, Mr. Calder, Osho, his personal stuff .. Then we have nothing to hold on to and all this discussion is irrelevant. What I have done is taking eyewitnesses account as facts, for the argument sake, and then contrast it with second-hand information. Not only that, second-hand emotionally motivated information. It is clear from Mr. Calder letters, articles, and responses, that he is emotionally driven, as myself, to discuss what we think is the truth.
I can only suppose or guess what is Mr. Calder motivation. But from his writing I feel that he is basically hurt. Perhaps he felt cheated by Osho, perhaps he felt stupid believing in what he said, perhaps as he states it, he felt Acharya Rajneesh lost the way, or perhaps, honestly, he felt that the man was wrong and he felt compelled to lead a crusade against this “criminal demential, liar”. I do not know. But what I do know is that as far as second hand information I have closer and more reliable ones: The actual people involved in the stories he tells. And, of course, bibliographical references for the quotes I use. Not just words I assume I heard, or heard someone else saying them. I insist: A quote without a reference is a lie. And Mr Calder lies a lot.

와우. It needs courage to face point by point all the things that Calder stated in his article. This surely looks like a very well informed report. Thank you for the perspective

Are you serious? Calder is what you could term a hostile witness. If you know his background you can't really take what he says at face value. What an idiot.
Well as I understand it the only thing Osho was ever charged with was arranging marriages? Can you imagine Osho arranging marriages in a place with 5000 residents. It's the only thing they could come up with to get rid of him. And check out the Tom Robbins interview on youtube. Great insights on that whole mess.
so 'zen 99′ was osho's group responsible for thge only bioterror attack on the us?
was he indicted on numerous breaches of immigration law?
was he whacked out on drugs?
did he admire hitler?
the answer to all is YES
how 'zen' is it to have 90 rolls royce?
he was a fraud in life and that hasn't changed in death.
all you can do is criticise calder as an individual but neglect to deal with these facts.
interesting- are you still in his cult then? are you another brainwashed follower?
more 'yes' answers I feel
the rolls royce's were so that the media would notice him, who notices people giving discourses on enlightenment ?
And atleast he didn't use the Rolls' as a garbage truck unlike an Indian Maharaja (whom Jim is scheduled to meet)
Thanks for the insight RYK – so I'll have to REFUSE a ride from the Maharaja then?
Sorry, that was shocking, REFUSE….lol.
gotcha!
although I don't recall the dalai lama needing 90 (why 90) rolls royce paid for my other peoples money to get his point across?
or gandhi?
Or Mother Teresa?
Or the Pope?
Surely if his message was strong and real it would have got through without sponging cars off muggy western tourists?
And if as he claimed he was 'god' surely he could have sorted a better way to spread his word.
Oh hold on he admitted the god thing 'was a joke'. just before his death.
He then said he was actually the reincarnation of buddha.
So essentially he made it up as he went along.
I am rolling round giggling here. And unlike the 'guru' its not because I am ripped to the t**s on nitrous oxide.
아! So you're the brainwashed American. I bet you wear a flag!
erm not american. so you got it wrong. ooooooooh your so enlightened aren't you?
and you calling me brainwashed is the pot calling the kettle.
notice you haven't actually responded to any of my points have you. typical cultist behaviour. do you want to address the points about your great leader- who was just an ugly indian fraudster and drug addict who set up a cult to get his ugly ass laid. I'm guessing whenever you are ready. or rather whenever your cult has told you you are ready.
Hi Urban Slander, sorry to have painted you as a brainwashed American if your not. Now all the slander is impossible to respond to. Very difficult to respond to a negative. Like trying to prove that you didn't have sex with your mom. Once it's out there you can deny it all you want but try to prove that you didn't have sex with your mom.
is that the best you can come back with?? laughable. run along little boy big man talk here.
you still avoided every point I made. again. either answer- or rather ask the people who control you what you should answer and then maybe then you can come back with something. as for the 'mom' comments. are you 12? if not- have a good look at yourself.
Hi, I am god , all my actions are reactions and vice versa.
so i 'll be always.
All contributions welcomed folks….
I'll be posting about this for the next 7 days (staying 8 days in total) so plenty of opportunity to constructively get all points across without taking it to a personal level,
건배.
no problem
I am just waiting to see if Zen responds- I won't hold my breath though
They tell us that at the retreat
OHM.
To hold your breath? Do they also tell you to exhale?
There's this dynamic meditation thats on the agenda – exhaling through the nose, full on for 10 minutes….part of a 1 hour session – I'll check it out.
Wow!!! I'm feeling dizzy!
All of those activities sound beneficial. Laughing is great for health – shouldn't be dismissed. Laughter Yoga is a legitimate means of lowering blood pressure – no joke – the studies have been done.
Personally, Yoga has become addictive for me. It's like giving yourself a massage – Chi Gung too as well as Tai Chi – all gentle and healthy. (Except Tai Chi – I think it's a bit hard on the knees). They all make you become present in the moment. Those and the natural garden and swimming would be my personal choices, since you've asked.
Jim, since you say you are unfocused, I'm envisioning two minutes of Tai Chi, followed by Laughter, then on to Yoga and a jump in the pool – I'll look forward to reading what activities you did choose.
I can't believe that sannyasins have not realized the obvious truth surrounding Osho's heavy metal poisoning. No, it was NOT thallium administered by the CIA
That's the computer playing up again…
If you want to know who was responsible for poisoning Osho with heavy metal you should go find the dentists who packed his teeth with MERCURY (ie one of the most dangerous heavy metals out there!). It's only because governments are keeping dental mercury poisoning completely covered up that the truth of Osho's poisoning never came to light. If you want to read the REAL truth surrounding Osho's premature death and how his own dentists were directly responsible then you're welcome to contact me by e-mail. I've written a series of letters describing in detail how this most obvious of truths has been completely overlooked because of the mass-conditioning imposed by governments regarding the highly toxic poison they've had packed into everyone's teeth.
I would like to see the truth surrounding Osho's heavy metal poisoning available for everyone interested. What I've written can be sent via e-mail through attachments, or alternatively, I could send the entire article to an e-mail address that can be read by anyone.
감사합니다
Sambhava.
Hiya Sambhava and welcome to GSTF!
How about I write a follow up post with your information on the poisoning?
I'll post it under 'health' of course!
so mercury in fillings caused his death.
so why aren't we all dying from our fillings?
there is nothing quite like a conspiracy to get the juices flowing
Hi Urban Pagan,
Are you ASKING me if what I'm writing is the truth, or are you TELLING me that it's NOT..?
If you want an answer to your (predictable) reply then please send an e-mail address and you'll have your answer whether you want to read it or not.
Regards, Sambhava.
PS. Would it affect your ego if I informed you that you don't have a clue..?
Hi Jim,
I sent off a reply to the address on your mail, but I don't know if you'll read this first. We can sure do an article about what I've written.
But the only way you'll ever get over to anyone exactly what I've written is by including everything I've covered. It's no use writing anything about mercury on its own because everyone is has been mass-conditioned into not being able to percieve even the simplest fact that what they've got packed inside their mouths is a HIGHLY TOXIC POISON! They're all running around thinking it's harmless “dental amalgam”. So you can take it from me that the article, if we're gonna attempt it at all, will have to include ALL the facts I've mentioned in my letters.
감사합니다
Sambhava.
PS. A very brief answer to Urban Pagan's comment: Smoking kills you. There are people smoking all over the world. They're not ALL dead. WAKE UP!
Ok thanks Sambhava – I'll have a good look through & will reply back to you in due course…
Glad you're smelling the flowers with us!
Incidentally, I had all my old fillings out and replaced with Porcelain – my teeth now have the life expectancy of a toilet
just as well with the amount of crap that comes out of your mouth eh!!
ker tish!!
boom boom!!
Hi Urban Pagan,
What's that for a reply..??!! Actually nothing is coming out of my mouth. I'm TYPING it!
감사합니다
Sambhava.
짐
Thank you so much for opening up that debate about Osho. I'm not going to defend Osho but it must have been hard to resist the ego trip. My theory is that he had convinced himself he had already reached mastery and was no longer susceptible to such things as drugs (or spiralling, out-of-control ego trips!!)- he must have thought having reached mastery he was in a position to use drugs NOT drugs use him. In one of his books he actually warns against the danger of drugs affecting self-mastery – but of course he was addressing mere mortals like myself.
And unlike most of us in our teens, he probably had little exposure to the effect of drugs and it must have blown his mind when he finally got to experience it (what a mind to blow!). Calder is obviously bitter but correct in saying that ultimately Osho was human. Perhaps 'mastery' is an ongoing phenomena and not a closed concept.
But here comes the 'however'; if you didn't know who Osho was and was totally unaware of any of this sordid background information and you picked up one of his books and read it – you would be surprised just how life-changing that can be. I think that's what some of the bloggers were trying to put across – only to be rudely dismissed by the unhappy person behind 'Urban Pagan'.
About 10 years ago, I was drawn to a book in a 2nd hand store entitled, The Psychology of the Esoteric. There was this old guy with a beard on the front but I had no idea who he was. It was really interesting and much of what was written resonated with me. I've never been much of a fan or follower (I actually don't subscribe to any form of organised religion – spiritual development should be a personal thing) so it didn't really occur to me to find out more about him. When I saw a book by him I would buy it, read it and found myself really getting excited about becoming more 'aware' and 'conscious' – not because the books told me to be – but because curiosity about the stuff beyond words was always there.
Years followed and my partner at the time decided to start teasing me about the Osho books in the bookcase eg: 'You're an orange person!!!' 'Are you into partner swapping?'
What?!!! I couldn't believe what he was saying and insisted he had got it wrong – in the back of my mind I remembered hearing about this cult of orange people and thought it must be that Maher baba whatever – he's got it wrong. A quick internet search and I was eating humble pie.
So all this time (15 books later) I had been reading the words of the orange people guru. Being a lawyer, I admit a touch of intellectual snobbery crept in and I felt somewhat embarrassed – however I was determined to remain impartial. If I had ever read something dodgey like 'Hitler is cool' – I would have arranged an immediate book burning. The content of Osho's books are brilliant (if, of course, you have a leaning to such things – not recommended for the Urban Pagan types).
In the past 6 months I have also started reading/listening to Eckhart Tolle – strangely enough the content is undeniably similar albeit expressed differently. Nevertheless, the core content is the same. Now I don't mention this to imply that dear Eckhart could end up the same way as Osho (if you're familiar with Eckhart you will know he is a very unassuming, humble man) or that he has plagarised Osho's works – rather that it is obvious they are both speaking from the one source.
I submit that this is most important. As fellow human beings – we understand the propensity for corruption all too well – it's really not that fascinating. I forgive the crazy Indian and for those who feel duped – why not take on some accountability? One should never give over their power to a cult or religion – why not read widely and experience all and then take away the very best from everything?
There is no one way. The answer is not in organised religion/cults – that's where history tells us things go a little perverse…
But don't completely write-off Osho – although he probably wouldn't give a shit if you do!
There are 5 houses in five different colors
In each house lives a different nationality.
These 5 owners drink a certain beverage, smoke a certain brand of cigar and keep a certain pet.
No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar, or drink the same beverage.
The CLUES:
The Brit lives in the Red house.
The Swede keeps dogs as pets.
The Dane Drinks tea.
The Green House is on the left of the White House.
The Green House's owner drinks coffee.
The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds.
The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill.
The man in the center house drinks milk.
The Norwegian lives in the first house.
The man who smokes Blends lives next to the one who keeps cats
The man who keeps horses lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill.
The man who smokes Blue Master drinks beer.
The German smokes Prince.
The Norwegian lives next to the Blue House.
The man who smokes Blends has a neighbor who drinks water.
The QUESTION:
Who owns the fish?
A one day committment to enlighenment?
Sounds minimal to me.
To all the others – if you can find a clearer master than Osho go for it.
'When the student is ready, the Master appear.'
Please and Love to all.

Osho 'em the money. People never learn when it comes to gurus and cults do they? Osho was a quack, a charlatan, a pimp, a crook, a fake and many other last names – and of course, he said he didn't know that his closest disciples, who had learned the right way to live from him, were running around trying to poison people but hey, he dictated some good books. Keep buying 'em if you want – a secret dossier is about to be published soon that will provide details of where all the money is going. Yes, that's right – they're building a rocket that will fly the Oshoists in to a black hole.
A pal encoraged me to check out this site, great post, fanstatic read… keep up the good work!
I've seen Rajneesh enjoying with 2 blonds at the same time – Eh! sex Guru
I've always believed, people who don't have any moral conscience, need to show they are following someone, in order to prove they are right. All Rajneesh followers are those who stand out / apart from a crowd. They want to be different. So, If a 100 people say yes, they will say no. Just to get noticed. If you tell them computers are the way to go, they will say no typewriters were better, and you won't be surprised if they siblings would still be using a typewriter at home.
They just want attention. Give them that, and they are on top of the world. These people find it hard to blend with the current times. You'll always notice they are a few decades back in the way they speak, and show they have a good knowledge of old times and are well read. Actually they are just real time life failures.
On any point of view they opinion differs. It's just that they cant move on and adapt to current times and cannot even comprehend doing that.
These are all psychologically demented people who need help.

I have recently come across OSHO on youtube and after watching all of the videos I could find I think the whole point is this. When I listen to what he says, I feel… wow! What a wise and very compassionate person to deliver such messages. I don't care what he did, or what someone else says he did, if he was insane, a drug addict, or whatever. I only hear the message and then it either resonates within me or it doesn't. The source of the message is irrelevant. I find almost all of OSHO's messages resonate clearly within my own being.

nice article 
A rare 1970s-era Mercedes-Benz C111 show car has gone on display at the company's museum at Brooklands, but it almost didn't make it. According to reports from across The Pond, the truck transporting the vintage concept car from Germany to the UK was hijacked by criminals looking to make off with the C111. The attempt was thwarted, but though now repaired, significant damage was reportedly incurred to one of the showcar's gullwing doors and to the front fender.
