 Indian Skeptic Vol 3 No 10/6
We note pitifully little of such despair in Bhagwan's case; the weal and woe of his fellow men is, at the very core of his person, a matter of indifference to him, as is correspondingly, how they act, insofar as it does not have a bearing on him.
Bhagwan's claim to be god comes across quite refreshingly in a world in which others assert with an equal right that they are his repesentatives, and infallible to boot, or are said to have asserted that they are his son.
Bhagwan has called fundamentally into question this secular hope of the established world religions by taking seriously their ideology, which was propagated for other purposes, and by setting a new irrationality over against the old ones.

Hinduism is not by nature a proselytizing religion, however, in part because of its inextricable roots in the social system and the land of India.

 ARTICLE BY : Dr. Dev Singh "Assur" (D.Phill), Valmiki Khoj Kendra, Sangrur (Pb.) India
Bhagwan Valmiki Ji have given in the Holy Ramayana such 'adoptable rules' for the common man in the shape of inspiring gospels and the religious persons after pondering over them have written The First Poet Valmiki Ji as Bhagwan because Bhagwan Valmiki Ji had attained the 'bhag' in the shape of religion.
Bhagwan Valmiki Ji remained aloof from the worldly entanglements as a lily flower remains aloof from the mud from which grows.
As Bhagwan Valmiki Ji had attained all the six "bhags" in the shape of bliss, religion, glory, knowledge, fame and asceticism has was enlightened with his renown, therefore in the ancient Indian literature Bhagwan Valmiki Ji has been addressed as "Bhagwan" innumerous times.

 Granta: 'Orange People' by Tim Guest
She dyed all her clothes in the bath, then hung them by the fire to dry—to my delight, they left permanent orange stains on the fireguards—and she and her new friends began to hold meetings in our living room, from some of which I was carefully excluded.
Bhagwan, who was never there but always there: in his books and tapes; in the songs we sang—'Disappearing into you, oh Bhagwan, the sun and the moon...'—wrought in miniature round all our necks; writ large, too, on the walls above our heads, in the laminate photos that were sometimes six feet wide.
Bhagwan always said his adult sannyasins were beyond help: they were too far gone to understand what he had to say.

 Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh
The early years interest me because this was the period when Bhagwan was just beginning to issue his invitation to meditation, while he was "going to the people" -- before he went the route of sannyas and ashram, with all of their attendant difficulties.
Certainly "the movement", and Bhagwan himself, must of necessity been somewhat different during this period than the later period of developing commune and centrally-located seat of discipleship with which he became identified by press and public.
The later books by Bhagwan date from the sannyas/ahsram period and thus are not relevant to my search for early non-commune material.

 Osho, Bhagwan Rajneesh, and the Lost Truth
Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh never apologized to any of the people who were poisoned by his own trusted disciples.
Rajneesh never understood this truth of history and referred to democracy scornfully as "mobocracy." Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh was an imperial aristocrat, never a generous and open minded democrat, and he put his contempt for the democratic process into highly visible action in Oregon.
The God "Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh" had fallen down to the stumble-drunk Osho, and a substantial number of his disciples were so addicted to his artfully seductive words and false image that they could not see what was happening right in front of their own eyes.
