Sarlo Protected Convicted Rapist Mohan (Michael Lyons)

Fake guru Michael Lyons (Mohan Singh) protected and shielded from public attention by Guru Ratings owner "Sarlo", former leader of Vancouver Osho centre, has been jailed for sex attacks and rape.

Sarlo who previously had refused to allow reports of Michael Lyons sex attacks to be posted on his YahooGroup GuruRatings finally had to accept the conviction and in order to limit the damage to his own reputation. Sarlo eventually was forced to allow a small mention of the rapist Mohan which he had previously denied and harassed posters on his list.

The late Tim Guest who exposed his unhappy life as a Rajneeshi child reported in his book acclaimed book "Second Life" that sannyas culture promoted the idea of sexual initiation of underage girls by visiting Osho sannyas leaders. Old sannyasins like Sarlo who was himself such a leader seek to distance themselves from the historical tragedy which they were part of. Tim Guest died of an overdose. Several critics with the sannyas community have been poisoned or died of an overdose. Bhagwan Rajneesh, Osho, himself claimed to have been poisoned. Several sannyasins have been jailed for using poison.

Sarlo while appearing critical of guru corruption appears to overlook sannyas criminals.

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).
