The Ultimate Iconoclast

The Ultimate IconoclastThe 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.
