OSHO MISUNDERSTOOD
Comment from a reader: Osho was no doubt a great person. However, his greatest flaw was that he could not run even his own commune properly. So we have to bear in mind that he is not necessarily the last word in everything).
Why make such premature judgements ? Are you able to run your own family properly ? Only the neurotics may like such views on big people. And there are many around trying to laugh at people. Please do not give them fodder.
Osho is to be read for understanding a peculiar unique way of fearless bold thinking. Normal humans do not think that way. In that vision, many things get exposed in the correct perspective. Osho is to be read for knowing that line of thinking. Not to swallow what he said blindly.
(However, Osho's greatest flaw was that he could not run even his own commune properly).
I give a standing ovation if that satisfies you. But please do not make such judgmental views about even a normal human next door. Because each man is unique. What he does cannot be replicated. And it is not required that someone is successful in all respects to get your applause. Even without your rating, what Osho did remains what he did.
Osho's contribution to spirituality, to me, are two. One is he exposed all fake or incomplete seers of the past irrespective of their standings. Those who criticize Osho still will bow to Mohammed and Jesus or Buddha, who were spiritual babies before Osho. Unbelievable ? Read h\osho books and compare his statements.
Religions know very well that if osho vision is adopted, no religion will survive. People will opt to become as big as prophets, no any less. That potential was unleashed by Osho. I do not know what you mean by "he could not run his own commune properly". Miscreants may be everywhere. Normal males cannot even run their homes properly ! But still criticize Osho commune of 3000 people who lived like free mature people. Osho only tried out a working model of living together as a responsible society. Humanity will take thousands of years even to think of such societies.
Those who find fault with Osho are jealous possessive males who are comfortable with celibate Gurus. The older the Guru, the better the follower feels LOL ! If the Guru cannot stand up, the follower is blindly in belief. Takes his wife to such old Gurus. But not to someone like Krishna or Mohammed or Osho ! Reason ? You know the reason. It is fear. Sexual jealousy. Males slander other males who are sexually active to make himself desirable ! This is the simple psychological reason why Osho is slandered. The egoistic males felt insecure with Osho. That their females may be attracted by Osho. The jealous insecure possessive males cannot stand it. That is all.
Osho's commune became a threat to the church and believers. Jesus was exposed by Osho. The blind faith was gone. But there was more damage coming. One was the God concept of Jesus got a knock. The third was Osho denied existence of any such God. Instead he advocated a state of Godliness, something like Sat chit Aanandam state experienced by the rishis. This was the last straw.
The church was exposed standing in the air on a pack of lies and miracle stories. Therefore the church had to regain its feet. This they did the same way Socrates was poisoned or Jesus was crucified or Suleiman was stoned to death.
Osho was stoned by the church through slandering. Jealosu males joined them. Soon it was the same crowd who crucified poor Jesus.
See the irony. The church which stands for the crucified Jesus ended up crucifying Osho for plain speaking.
Try to understand the true facts. Else you will inadvertently end up with those who crucified Jesus when when you know Jesus was right.
(Comment from reader: Its normal human tendency to follow something blindly once they are comfortable with it. So, many did and still do follow Jesus, etc. blindly. The same is happening with the case of Osho's followers, who did the so called exposure of Jesus, Buddha, Mohammad)
There is a difference between Osho followers and other followers. First of all none follows Osho blindly. It is not possible. He called everyone who were attracted by him as potential spiritual giants and not sheep or disciples.The followers of Oho were told they were potential Oshos themselves.Not slaves seeking blessings. Compare this with the blind followers of the others thinking that Jesus will save if believed in etc. None will say Osho will save if believed in, In fact it is the same 'beliefs' that Osho targeted to remove from human minds. Faiths that make people fearful and submissive.
Buddha, Jesus and Mohammed become babies before Osho because of their inherent weaknesses. Read osho for clarity. Osho did not say they were babies before him. But I did that statement to see things in perspective. Mahavira was the most childish of the lot. Mohammed was whimsical, driven by desires and emotions, not really a mystic at all, Jesus was better off these two. Buddha was the best among the lot. Because religions are founded after these earlier Gurus, they appear as super humans. Osho cut them to size.
Read Osho. Books available for free download at www.osho.com. Even if you do not read any other prophet or founder or Guru. Missing Osho is the biggest blunder one will commit in life, by listening to the priests with vested interests. Because the priests and religions will disperse if people read Osho.
Let me rephrase it. I dare you to read Osho and speak the same way you did before and after reading him. LOL ! :D

I agree with you except one point. It wasn't that Osho wasn't able to run his own commune properly but the fact is the world in which his commune existed didn't want it to run at all.
ReplyDeletePerhaps he was the only one enlightened being
On the earth that whole world stood against him simply because people didn't want to listen what he was saying as they were comfortable with thier old structure.
