The photographic record of the Dialog Centre Aarhus Denmark

Anders Blichfeldt was a co-worker at the Dialog Centret from the end of the seventies. He had an amazing gift to have a camera always available so we have an interesting record of a developing movement and network which involved people all over ther world and especially the emerging Dialog Center International, (DCI.)

Bhagwan Rajneesh though dead has come back to life through Netflix movie Wild Wild Country

 

In light of the series on Rajneesh on the Netflix movie ‘Wild Wild Country,’ we are providing some background on this controversial figure.

Since the late seventies, I had become familiar with Rajneesh through the research of Dr. Johannes Aagaard a Profesor at the University at the Dialogue Centre in Aarhus Denmark. He and some members visited Pune, India and made some recordings there. I always remember they reported that over the door of the Ashram was the sign, “Leave your mind at the door.” Over the years we had a number of requests for help as the new spirituality seemed to be a total break with the members background. My last memory is of a call from the Department of Foreign Affairs concerning Bhagavan’s request for asylum in Ireland. It is clear that everyone would like to regard Rajneesh as the holy innocent and blame Sheela for all the criminal activity. It is clear that this group descended into criminality and that Rajneesh himself wanted to be at the heart of the personality cult along with all his Rolls Royces.

Make sure you read this very slick programme in great detail. It tries to use Steve Jobs to get you to think you are on the right road. Putting St. Francis and Sai Baba in the same document makes me want to puke.

“Through 40 years of experience I have understood that we are all puppets on a stage and God Almighty is the great director.”

Note how Shashi views God and  humankind?

A Visit To The Shree Rajneesh Ashram, Jan 1979

By Mikkel Pade

Without any doubt, 17, Koregaon Park is the most well-known address in Poona, India, a town of some hundred thousands of inhabitants, about 250 km from Bombay. To the hotel-owners, taxi-drivers, and the tailors of the town, the owner of this place could be the fulfillment of prayers to Laxmi, Hindu-goddess of wealth and fortune. In just a few years they have become quite rich because of a “pilgrimage” of thousands of young Americans and West Europeans, and others, to this address: The Shree Rajneesh Ashram, 17, Koregaon Park, Poona 41101.
