team immensely”

– Tom Cruise, actor

– and even the political and the literary, the wanton and the spiritual.
His was a holistic understanding. An understanding that went beyond

believe that Osho was well ahead of his time in terms of his teachings,
his thinking and as a practical man. This is very clear that the

to any individual. In fact each one of the 6 Billion of us that
inherit the earth today have a right to the words of Osho.”

Property Organization (WIPO)

new man is both spiritual and scientific, simultaneously; he is
not repressive and aggressive as in the past but tender and loving
to embrace the joyful future. Let us rejoice and welcome the new
man of Osho who is open and transparent, honest and truthful, authentic
and self-disclosing. Osho’s new man is not fragmented but integral,
wholistic in the image of his creator. And, this new man is not
going to fall from some alien space but he is arriving through each
one of us as we start dropping the gross sheath of our existence
and start reaching the essential nature of ourselves, which is pure
existence, pure consciousness and pure bliss.”

essence, enjoy it and live it. Thank you for letting me touch the
tip of this vast treasure.”

Main
be-qaid, main be-quaid
Na rogi, na vaid!
“Loosely translated, this line by the 18th century Sufi poet
Bulle Shah, would go somewhat like this – I am unfettered, unfettered
am I. Neither the sick nor the savior am I. The line for me is a
source of boundless creative energy and celebration. This is the
irresistible feeling in the presence of Osho’s aura. I can say no
more.”

– Madangopal Singh, University professor and Sufi Scholar
