Osho's Sannyas Mafia - Killing Off the Competition

Osho Rajneesh's neo-sannyas movement grew enormously rich; rich enough for The Bhagwan to be "donated" 100 Rolls Royces, unused status symbols which simply rusted. There were plenty of rich sannyasins around to splash the cash and keep Osho financially secure for several lifetimes (reported earnings are $15-$45 million annually in the U.S. alone). Osho had little personal use for money beyond building a private library. When he was not giving his daily discourses he stayed alone in a simply furnished room. Osho's only vice (other than voyeurism) was laughing gas (nitrous oxide). Someone else had to be responsible for the ashram, the unpaid sannyas work force, the sale of over 600 books and tapes by Osho, the 200,000 tourist visitors a year - and a huge stash of cash big enough to kill for.

And killing did happen. Murder attempts too: US Attorney Charles Turner, citizens of The Dalles, Osho's personal physician (Swami Devaraj) and personal assistant/consort, Vivek. Eventually, they got to Vivek. Vivek’s untimely death was hushed up and made to look like suicide - just 6 weeks later Osho died after complaining that someone was trying to kill him. Poison had been used in all cases and poison was known to have been widely employed by some sannyasins.

Osho's personal secretary, Ma Anand Sheela has been blamed for nearly everything. She is accused of ordering the botched murder attempt on Vivek. Sheela, Osho was told, had stolen $50,000,000 and put it in a Swiss bank account before escaping. However the aging Sheela today works in a Swiss retirement home to pay her rent, not exactly the lifestyle of a rich millionaire. Sheela was the patsy, the fall guy. Who really profited from these actions? Where did the money go? Whoever they are, they are clever enough to have avoided detection. Certain sannyasins have conspired to create a cover-up.

Swami Deva Sarlo, former ashram security guard and leader of Samaroha Meditation Center in Vancouver, does not want you to know. Sarlo has some friends who also do not want you to know. Try raising the subject on Sarlo's Guru Rating or LivingOsho list (Yahoo Groups).

The Hidden Agenda of Sarlo's Guru Rating Service

Sarlo would be little known if it were not for a website which he created to stop members of his cult center leaving to follow other gurus after the suspicious death of internationally outlawed cult leader Osho (Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh, Chandra Mohan Jain). Sarlo, who refuses to reveal his legal name, hides behind the cult name given to him by the Bhagwan in 1974, Swami Deva Sarlo. Sarlo runs the Osho Samaroha Meditation Center in Vancouver with his mistress of 27 years, Ma Dhyan Amiyo.

Perversely, Sarlo, on his guru rating site, gives the highest ranking to Osho even though Osho ran a manipulative cult whose members have been provenly engaged in an orgy of horrendous criminal acts including the mass poisoning of a whole town, attempted murder of sannyas cult members, wire tapping, gun and drug running, prostitution and voter corruption. Consequently, in 1985 Osho was extradited from USA, put on a plane and refused stay in 21 countries. Eventually, Osho returned to India where the local authorities in Pune tried to ban him in 1986.

Osho repeatedly claimed that someone in his Koregaon Park Pune ashram was trying to kill him. By 1990 Osho and his consort, Vivek, were dead, 6 weeks apart in suspicious circumstances. What followed was a vicious internecine war between different sannyas factions which sought to profit from the Osho name, as well as thwart investigations into suspicious ashram deaths including that of the cult leader himself, Osho.

From this violent background, Sarlo, who admits being a Pune ashram "security guard", has emerged as a controller in the old sannyas network, runs an official Osho center and manages several sannyas discussion lists. Astute readers of Sarlo's lists, which include Sarlo's Guru Rating Forum (hosted by Yahoo Groups) will instantly notice that Sarlo, runs his lists with the iron fist of a cruel dictator. Sarlo bans members who seek to explore the possible causes of Osho’s and Vivek's closely timed deaths. Also banned by Sarlo is any real criticism of Sarlo, his associates and supporters. Unfortunately, Sarlo has stifled an open and honest discussion which some sannyasins actually want to have. Sarlo has incited mob attacks on women in particular and ignored complaints of criminal activities against women by male members of his forum. Sarlo has gone as far to create unfair and untrue accusations against those who do not follow his directives. Such exploitative and abuse behavior towards women is common at many sannyas centers; Sarlo has never grown out of his misogyny.

One thing should be absolutely clear to the aware reader by now: Sarlo’s Guru Rating Service has an unstated and hidden agenda to subvert public and sannyas perceptions about the mafia-like war that has been waged inside Osho's movement for the past 40 years. Clearly, Sarlo’s pronouncements have to be seen for what they are: vicious attacks on anything which destabilizes the Osho neo-sannyasin movement including gurus and former sannyasins who have freed themselves from the tyranny of the sannyas mafia.
