The introduction of this book is in two parts. This is not the normal practice, but with Rajneesh Osho nothing can be normal.
The first part gives a broad overview of Rajneesh’s ideas and methods . it tries to put his thought in perspective, so it becomes slightly easy to understand him.
The second part deals specially with the contradictory nature of his ideas.A few years ago, a friend of mine called on me after a long time and asked me what I was working on. I told him that I was writing a book on Rajneesh. ' Oh! One fraud writing on another fraud!' said he, in his usual tongue in cheek manner.
' It takes a fraud to understand another fraud' I replied.
Mention the name Rajneesh or Osho, and you always get an amusing, and often extreme response. People either idolise him or demonise him. When I was considering the subject of my Ph. D. thesis; among many options I also considered his philosophy as a topic. Some laughed at the idea, while others cautioned me that it would be academic suicide.
