Hi moderator
You say that I spin things very fancifully and apologetically. It may just be that we think in different ways. Your thinking comes across as very black and white, whereas I see it all as shades of grey.
So I recognise that some people may have left Lifewave feeling deeply hurt, but others were greatly helped by their time in Lifewave, despite the problems of the group. It wasn't all bad.
And I am well aware of the history of Rajneesh, but I would not call him a horrible person, but then I wouldn't call him an enlightened teacher either. As always, some people had horrible experiences as sannyasins while others' lives were greatly enriched.The whole story is rather more complex than simply saying he was a bad man.
Peace
