The Buddhafield Paradox: Letter from Shantam Prem
Beloved Friends,
I am sure anyone who has read and listened Osho, has felt a thrill of some new opening in the heart and being. There must be still around half million people alive, who just read His books and felt to book the flight, whereever he was residing… There must be thousands and thousands who got the taste of Osho´s Commune for years, or for weeks as per our individual circumstances and choices.
We all know that during the last few years the concept of “A Commune” has been buried and in it’s place there is the concept of a “Resort”. In my opinion the distance between these two, is as thin as between loving and liking or between a one night stand and love affair.
But it is my personal opinion, who knows, the wise people running the show may have implemented the collective will of fellow sannyasins, or maybe Osho mentioned it explicitly in some discourse I have not read.
My simple question is that howsoever small or big evolution has taken place in our hearts and being - is it just because of His discourses and meditation techniques - or also and perhaps more importantly the collective atmosphere of a Buddhafield playing this role?
As I understand Osho designed and modified His commune in such a way that it would go on enriching generations to come, therefore I feel that without any affiliation to any group or tribes, changes for the sake of changing were not required.
My humble request is that if you feel Resort is serving the purpose of fiery growth in us, please visit the place as regularly as you used to visit during the early years and if you feel that team of Jayesh and Amrito have made a foul, please don´t hesitate to show them a card. Appreciate it or condemn it, but please don´t ignore the show happening at 17; koregaon Park, Pune.
with love
Shantam Prem
