Rajneesh movement

[ionelv]

Last night, I watched the first episode of Wild Wild Country, a Netflix documentary on Rajneesh (Osho). His commandments (as expected) look good on paper and very progressive/positive (except maybe for 3, 5 and 10, the first and last one being emphasized by him):

   1   Never obey anyone's command unless it is coming from within you also.
   2   There is no God other than life itself.
   3   Truth is within you, do not search for it elsewhere.
   4   Love is prayer.
   5   To become a nothingness is the door to truth. Nothingness itself is the means, the goal and attainment.
   6   Life is now and here.
   7   Live wakefully.
   8   Do not swim – float.
   9   Die each moment so that you can be new each moment.
  10   Do not search. That which is, is. Stop and see.

Sadly, things went sideways rather quick at the Oregon commune, but the movement lives on after his death.
