About Osho

Indian

Chandra Mohan Jain, later known as Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh and ultimately Osho, was an Indian spiritual teacher and philosopher. Born in Kuchwada, Madhya Pradesh, British India, he studied philosophy and worked as a university lecturer before beginning his public career as a spiritual guide in the 1960s. He traveled across India, giving lectures and leading meditation camps, advocating for a spiritual path that emphasized individual experience over traditional religious dogma. His teachings covered a wide range of topics, including meditation, love, awareness, courage, and creativity, often drawing from various spiritual traditions such as Zen, Taoism, Tantra, and Sufism. He established an ashram in Pune, India, which attracted a large international following. In the 1980s, he moved to the United States and founded an intentional community in Oregon. After facing legal issues, he returned to India and continued his work until his death in 1990. His discourses were transcribed and published in hundreds of books.
