Why the Osho Sannyas world is so much divided and against each other. There are so many factions each claiming to do Bhagwan's work. Is this the outcome of effort put by Osho for so many years? I often wonder where things has gone wrong.
Where we have gone wrong and why we have lost touch with the mainstream message of Osho. Every one has understood Osho in his own way and every one will interpret Osho's message in their own way. According to my understanding Osho's message is to realize oneself. It is to meditate so deeply that meditation becomes a part of our every breath, every deed and every word. Meditation becomes so spontaneous that one flowers into a lotus.
Instead of putting emphasis on meditation and buddhahood many of us have picked up the idea of celebration. These people themselves don't meditate but they do preach on meditation as they have become good intelluctals after reading so many of Osho Books and thus unknowingly or knowingly they misguide innocent young people who look up to them for guidance. I am not against celebration. But in my understanding celebration is more of an inner quality rather than having the need of partying, clubbing, use of alcohol, sex, to create a celebrative environment.
Osho has given us total freedom to do any thing but with one golden rule that is "If your Meditation allows then do it" and in many places Osho has also said that If you really meditate then you cannot do anything wrong. But many of us have ignored meditation totally and not at all given importance to meditation in our life. Instead of meditation, so called celebration, sex, money, relationships all have taken the center stage. e.g. Bhagwan has clearly said if you want to move into sex then it has to be spontaneous and very meditative phenomena. But how many of us actually meditate in real life. The essence of Bhagwan's message that is meditation is totally missing at some places or undermined at others.
I am not questioning any one. Every one has the right to live their life in their way. If some one is going downhill then its his freedom. But at the same time they don't have the right to misguide anyone. My only purpose of writing this post is for newcomers who look upto others for guidance.
Real guidance can either come from one source or from Osho books or by connecting oneself with Osho. In case if some one reads Osho Books then don't make any opinion. It's always recommended to read as many Bhagwan Books to have a complete picture, because in different books Bhagwan has spoken differently on a given topic and each time you read a new book you will get a new insight.

Dear Master,
Though they are form, some words do have the ability to touch the inner core. These words "It is to meditate so deeply that meditation becomes a part of our every breath, every deed and every word. Meditation becomes so spontaneous that one flowers into a lotus" do touch me.
Please keep posting your ideas and the teachings of Bhagawan Osho so that they become inspiration to us.
Best Regards
Seshu
Dear Seshu
you can call me amitabh or just friend.
reading the word 'master' always scares me.
I can post much more on Bhagwan teachings but i want to avoid it. As I am a very personal person and dont want unneccessary controversy but that state of things are so messy that i have to pen down some pointers to the current situation in a polite way.
love
amitabh
