who is osho?

Question

the enlightened guru, the buddha, the love and the light of many lives.

Answer 1

I just answered to another question with his quote (and sent ot to a friend before that). Something in his letter reminded me of it. So here it is:

When you are alone you are not alone, you are simply lonely - and there is a tremendous difference between loneliness and aloneness. When you are lonely you are thinking of the other, you are missing the other.

Loneliness is a negative state. You are feeling that it would have been better if the other were there - your friend, your wife, your mother, your beloved, your husband. It would have been good if the other were there, but the other is not. Loneliness is absence of the other.

Aloneness is the presence of oneself. Aloneness is very positive. It is a presence, overflowing presence. You are so full of presence that you can fill the whole universe with your presence and there is no need for anybody.

Rajneesh Chandra Mohan Jain (December 11, 1931 – January 19, 1990), better known during the 1960s as Acharya Rajneesh, then during the 1970s and 1980s as Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh and later taking the name Osho, was an Indian spiritual teacher. He lived in India and in other countries including, for a period, the United States, and inspired the Osho movement, a controversial spiritual and philosophical movement.

He was often called the "sex guru" after some speeches in the late 1960s on sexuality. These were later compiled under the title From Sex to Superconsciousness. According to him, "For Tantra everything is holy, nothing is unholy",and all repressive sexual morality was self-defeating, since one could not transcend sex without experiencing it thoroughly and consciously.

Osho said he loved to disturb people – only by disturbing them could he make them think. Accordingly, his discourses were peppered with offensive jokes and outrageous statements lampooning key figures of established religions such as Hinduism, Jainism or Christianity. Concerning the virgin birth, for example, he said that Jesus was clearly a bastard, since he was not Joseph's biological son. An attempt on his life was made by a Hindu fundamentalist in 1980. Osho, however, said that the only thing he was serious about in his discourses were the jokes – they were the main thing, and everything else was spiritual gossip.

Osho had a penchant for courting controversy.

His liberal views on sex and emotional expression, and the resulting unrestrained behaviour of sannyasins in his Pune Ashram,at times caused considerable consternation, dismay and panic among people holding different views on these matters, both in India and the U.S A number of Western daily papers routinely, and falsely claimed that Bhagwan, a traditional title for spiritual teachers in India, meant "Master of the Vagina", and focused their reporting on sexual topics.

Osho said that he was "the rich man's guru and that material poverty was not a spiritual value. He was photographed wearing sumptuous clothing and hand-made watches.He drove a different Rolls-Royce each day – his followers wanted to buy him 365 of them, one for each day of the year.Publicity shots of the Rolls-Royces (more than 90 in the end) appeared in the press.
In his discourses, Osho consistently attacked organisational principles embraced by societies around the world – the family, nationhood, religion. He condemned priests and politicians with equal venom and was in turn condemned by them.

Osho dictated three books while undergoing dental treatment under the influence of nitrous oxide (laughing gas): Glimpses of a Golden Childhood, Notes of a Madman, and Books I Have Loved. This led to allegations that Osho was addicted to nitrous oxide gas. In 1985, on the American CBS television show 60 Minutes, his former secretary, Ma Anand Sheela, claimed that Osho took sixty milligrams of Valium every day.

When questioned by journalists about the allegations of daily Valium and nitrous oxide use, Osho categorically denied both, describing the allegations as "absolute lies".
