Hi Warwick

[Guest guest]

Back from our weekend and read the mails.

 

So Warwick, please refresh my aging memory, when and where do you think we lived together?

 

Warwick, it bothers me that after all the years in Poona etc., you

call yourself a Rajneeshee, a name invented by the American press to

belittle Osho's sannyasins who were for the most part, just as you,

sincere spiritual seekers.

 

Your principal argument against Osho seems to be that as far as you

know no one became enlightened by him and therefore he could not

have been enlightened himself.

 

But Warwick, he never promised us that we would become enlightened. In

fact he kept trying to remind us of the fact that we already were, and

that no one can either give or take away from us what we already are.

 

'Trying to get it' made me plenty unhappy also. I guess we have

different sorts of characters, I mostly blame myself for that and you

seem to be blaming Osho, Cohen and others.

 

Nevertheless, now you are experiencing moments of peace after the

years of trying.It is possible that this might not be happening to

you without the years that you spent in Poona.

 

First the effort and then the relaxation, and where else on earth were

efforts such as those made possible for us by Osho's vision available?

Nowhere I think.

 

I consider myself blessed for the opportunity to have been there.

 

Don't forget that Osho was working for the long vision.

 

How many followers of Buddha, or Christ, or Ramana, have become enlightened over the centuries?

 

Yet, part of the glimpse is the certain knowledge that Grace is the

destiny of each and every sentient being.

 

In accordance with the suggestions of others maybe you should change your name to

Peacenick. Remember that one?

 

namaste (and a hug), Sam/Sadhananda

 

btw, what was your sannyas name?
