I've read a few osho books and his meditation techniques seem really great and novel, his voice sounds blissful and full of presence, and he revolutionaised zen meditation techniques. But people say as he got to the end of his life he went crazy,
Is it true he recomennded ecstacy and that he stacked up on gold limos in his old age, because he thought it was 'irrelevant' ?
My teacher said he was one of the peole he was most honoured to work with, but in the next breath he said... 'he went totally crazy though, lost the plot' in a downhearted kind of tone, like it was a shame or a loss, or something.
What does this mean?.
I'm really struggling.
does it mean that osho went mad, or that he thought he was teaching people something about creating their own morals?
I don't understand but there must be a bit of specualtion already on the subject of osho's madness?
It's just that my teachers response was so weird. It might just be that he allways speaks a certain way that doesn't allow me to fix an idea or conception about something.
I think if thats what it is, I can accpet that becasue its like having a friend that you really love who goes mad and does something you personally don't endorse......agrrh i don't know iguess if you love someone you don't have an opinion on anything they do.
