About the Book

Inhaltsangabe: Einleitung: Im Juli 1981 wurde auf einem großen und kargen Wüstengelände (der ehemaligen „Big Muddy Ranch") im US-Bundesstaat Oregon eine Stadt mit dem Namen „Rajneeshpuram" gegründet. Aufgebaut wurde sie von den Anhängern des umstrittenen indischen Gurus Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh. Ma Anand Sheela, die Sekretärin Bhagwans und mächtigste Frau des Ashrams, organisierte den Kauf des großen Wüstengeländes. Die Kommune bot alles was zum Leben benötigt wurde. So verfügte sie z.B. über einen eigenen Flugplatz, ein öffentliches Nahverkehrsystem mit 90 Großraumbussen und einen künstlich angelegten Stausee. Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh fand nach seinen eigenen Angaben im Alter von 21 Jahren am 21.03.1953 zur Erleuchtung. Eine Erleuchtung versteht er als Zustand der absoluten Wachheit, mit einer umfassenden Wahrnehmung zur Verschmelzung mit der Natur bzw. mit dem Kosmos. Hunderttausende amerikanische und europäische Menschen zog Bhagwan in seinen Bann und etliche Tausende in seinen Ashram. Ihr gesamtes Vermögen, welches sie im bürgerlichen Leben erworben bzw. geerbt hatten, brachten sie in das Weltzentrum der Sannyas-Bewegung (als Sannyas bezeichnen sich die Anhänger Bhagwans) nach Oregon. Mit Rajneeshpuram entstand eine Kommune, die das Lebenswerk des Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh darstellte. In der Kommune lebten 5.000 Sannyasins, die von der Außenwelt nicht gestört werden sollten. Zu Beginn der Errichtung des Lebenswerkes von Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh gab es große Anerkennung von der Außenwelt für die in der Kommune lebenden Sannyasins. So hatte die Kommune beispielsweise einen ganzen Wirtschaftszweig nach Oregon gebracht. Ferner hatte sie es geschafft, das karge Wüstenland in fruchtbares Ackerland umzuwandeln. Ein Jahr nach der Gründung wurden der Stadt die Stadtrechte verliehen; doch bereits zu diesem Zeitpunkt wendete sich die öffentliche Meinung gegen die Kommune. Die Außenwelt brachte nun der Sannyas-Kommune keine Anerkennung mehr entgegen, weil die Kommune sehr mächtig
