Statement From the Founders

We, the founding trustees, are aware of the inevitability that different people or groups have arisen, and will arise in the future, presenting their own interpretation of Osho's vision…

We want to be clear that we are giving no interpretation of his vision, and making no evaluation of his body of work differentiation between different periods of his work.

We also want to make clear that we are not forming any religious or spiritual entity. Our sole aim is to preserve and make Osho's work available.

To that end, we are neither for nor against any Osho group.

In our understanding, Osho spoke in a contradictory way specifically to avoid any of his words becoming the basis of a fixed truth or belief. For that reason we will never use our own minds to select any specific quotations from Osho to support or deny any viewpoint.

It is up to every individual to find his or her own truth through their own direct experience arising from their own connection to Osho and his vision.

In addition to preserving the body of work which enshrines Osho's vision, we are also honored to preserve the material things connected to his physical presence, as a reminder of the grace and elegance of his unique embodiment of enlightenment which can serve as an inspiration to us all.

We are not, however, creating a museum or any holy shrine. We are well aware that Osho wanted neither.

We are also not declaring a full stop to Osho's work. Osho is timeless and his work continues as an ongoing movement of energy, touching and provoking people in many different ways.

It is not limited to his physical body.

Osho's work is a continuous change and renewal - and such change has always been an intrinsic part of the movement/ physical entities he created around him. We acknowledge that ongoing evolvement, and want to provide the space for it to continue.
