I understand your rational reflection Nikki. But I DO NOT advocate any spiritual leader who talks in the spirit of 'truth" but walks in the spirit of darkness, whilst blinding people on his way. It's disrespect to your soul if you choose the path of delusion, but don't convert 1000s on your way to destruction.
It is imperative to judge, because without scrutiny of what's satya and asatya, we'll nod our heads every time a charming articulate guru tries to advocate nirvana whilst asphyxiating us in maya.
Truth is ageless and a guru's goal is to dispel darkness. Like Osho himself said, the companionship of fool is not good. Buddha and Osho both scrutinised a fool's behaviour, so who are we to disagree with Bhagwan Rajeesh?
This is coming from a man who sexually exploited devotees' young children and enjoyed a free sex and drugs philosophy. And yes, you come here alone and you will die alone - as he did when he was substance-abused and gravely ill. You die with your karma here and carry on leaden burdened baggaeg if not solved.
"Remember the companions of fools is not good"
Just because he's well articulated, doesn't mean he's wise - Osho just recyled Hindu and Buddhist wisdom using it to manipulate his own self interests, like attempting to own his city.
The great Buddha said this 1000s of years ago way before this fool came along

Ripa, I really admire your writing and the depth you've taken to really dissect the essence of the article.
Your way of writing is so lucid and thoughtful. I agree with most of it
