Marijuana *AND* weed? This dude is hardcore.

I feel for this guy's neighbors

When you hear the sound of 30 people screaming next-door in the basement..

I watched the documentary and thought it was great. Funny thing is that I had been to the exact spot where they all were in Antelope because of a camp. Now it's "Washington Family Ranch", I didn't even realize it until a few months later when I watched the doc. I asked my parents about it since they lived in Portland during the 80s and they said they bought tents that the followers had used once they disbanded. I also go to the Burgerville that was poisoned every time I drive along the Columbia gorge, which is many times a year.

Honestly I just think these meditations just come down to adults needing a safe space to access parts of them they gave up or stifled after childhood. It feels good and freeing to scream, cry, laugh, flail around, jump up and down - but these expressions are seen as childlike and will have other adults looking at you like you're crazy. So in a sense, all spirituality aside, these meditations totally make sense.

After 9:20 I still don't know what happened to rajnesh after wild wild Country

This fool is trying to capitalise on the wild wild country Netflix series.

Never born Never died Osho ♡♡♡

This story is so fascinating. The doc was one of the best I have ever seen around a community i had never heard of.

Marijuana AND weed?! How is this man still alive?!?!?

Any worshipping of any human being is really something we need evolve out of. This has gotten into every sect of our society such as politics. Group worshipping has always ended poorly.

My friend in 2020: "How are you doing?" Me: "Fine." How I actually feel: "3:00".

0:13 I just fucking love how that dude in the back is dancing

When u stand for nothing, you fall into everything

Osho's jokes were The Best!!!!! I go thought hours of his videos just looking for the jokes! I can't believe this guy wrote the jokes!!!!! So excited!

Observing the comments section, I can confidently say that the "Rajneeshpuram experiment" was successful. Osho showed the mirror to , society (how easily malleable they are under influence of a religion, and how they can be made to function beyond any reasoning) Democracy (how easily corruptible and full of plot holes it is, and can be bent to a ridiculous degree) Politicians (how they visciously target whom they deem a threat all while abandoning reasoning) And finally, the immense power a single person with determination holds.

That was one epic documentary... and Osho was undoubtedly a Man to be reckoned with. What he started.. was extremely important for lots of people.

I lived at the Osho commune in India for 2 years in 1995, 5 years after Osho died. It's the most beautiful place I've ever been to, and I had the time of my life.

you may hate him .. you may love him but most importantly you cannot ignore him

Osho was much much ahead of present time - our society couldn't handle the energy

I have been into Yoga for over 35 years, but when I was in my early twenties and still searching, I remember looking into Rajneesh's organization and did not feel it was spiritual. When I saw the documentary, Wild, Wild Country, I understood why. For one thing, their practices of intense hyperventilation, indulging in one's emotions, and the allowance of alcohol ie two beers a day explains why some of these people became hyper-sexual and violent. In short, their lifestyle was too self-indulgent and had no restrictions on the senses. Ramana Maharshi said it is impossible to gain Self Realization without controlling the senses because they are like wild horses pulling us back into worldly life and further away from the spiritual life. If we look at the system of Chakras, they are a ladder to higher consciousness, and the lowest, the Muladhara Chakra located at the base of the spine happens to be the primary consciousness of this world, which also explains why sex colours everything in this world and is one of the biggest commodities. However, we are meant to transcend these lower forms of energy expression and not indulge in them if we wish to transcend human consciousness and become more divine. In other words, it is almost impossible to reach higher ground if the senses are not kept under control and this explains why Rajneesh's community lost control and everything got out of hand. Jesus said, "No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money" (Matthew 6:24). Even though Osho was not directly responsible for Sheela's behaviour, he made her his secretary, so my question is this. As a man claiming to be realized, why didn't Osho SEE what kind of a person she was? Why did he leave all of his followers in her hands? Is that the behaviour of Guru? Osho also had a drug addiction to laughing gas and may have also taken his own life with the help of his doctor, further abandoning his followers. Osho is not the only Guru who has fallen taking some of his followers with him, almost ALL the big Gurus that come to the West are accused of sexual misconduct. Why do they come to the West? In my opinion, some of them come here for fame and fortune. North American people are very vulnerable and gullible, especially the rich. They have all the material things they want but have not found happiness and peace and this is where these Gurus come in and claim they can fill that void. The only TRUE Guru is within you and no words or teachings will connect you to that Source, but practice stilling the mind to listen to that Guru will. This is the essence of Yoga: Chitta Vritti Nirodha. There are many methods mentioned in The Sutras of Patanjali, but the point is to STILL and PURIFY the mind and then we experience our own true Divine Nature. Hell is whenever our minds are not clean, so with a pure mind we experience heaven. "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God" (Matthew 5:8). Yoga, especially Pranayama, purifies the mind as does meditation and a life of selfless service. However, I never saw any methods to purify the mind being done in the Rajneesh community, just indulging in one's feelings and emotions, which in reality, just keeps you in those emotions because the more we give energy to these thoughts, the more they become entrenched in our mind and cause hell for us. Osho's notion of Sannyasin was also troubling since a true Sannyasin is someone who RENOUNCES worldly life. A true Sannyasin "has turned away from all material possessions and emotional ties. They now live only to perfect their understanding of the spiritual world. This is seen as a state of sacrifice that leads to final liberation from the cycle of death and rebirth, or moksha. For many advanced yogis, becoming a Sannyasin is the final stage of yoga practice. They can devote themselves wholly to the pursuit of the spiritual understanding that comes from yoga." Yet, the Rajneesh's Sannyasins were just the opposite, indulging in sense gratification, while the Guru looked on and said nothing. In my opinion, his huge following was the result of very few restrictions to their lifestyles. We all want freedom, but our freedom cannot be taken at the expense of others. It was clear that Rajneesh's followers did not set a very good spiritual example, carrying weapons and indulging in sex out in the open for the towns' people to see. If our spiritual practices do not create peace for not only ourselves, but for all those who are around us and in our community, then it is clear we may not be following the correct method to enlightenment and we may end up doing more harm than good ~ Namaste

Not easy to understand Osho🧐

Osho is wild guru… I loved his book The Secret of Secrets.

I used to like Vice a lot in high school and college and now as an adult realize how off they are and how hard they try

What's the criteria to become a vice host? I'm intrigued.

I'm feeling bad for his neighbours

I think the original Osho group could stand for much applause and criticism; applause for doubling down on what you believe in and initially minding your own business (the embodiment of American ideals), but when the movement was questioned and challenged, I think the community's response escalated things in a way completely dissonant with the ideals of control and acknowledgment and conversation. That being said, the contemporary movement (like in this video) is a beautiful thing. I think reasonably summarized as exercising a political neutrality while reflecting, meditating, and manifesting primal impulses. All extremely beneficial for mental health, longevity, and personal development, not just in my opinion, but also in many, MANY bodies of research. Cheers and well done.

Read and explore the Osho’s message by yourself only! Never listen to anyone’s enterpetations

I know a bunch of the people that built that place and in the movie. Solid good people.

growing up in india i have heard of osho..but never understood what he did.....after watching wild wild country only did i get fascinated by all this

This meditation i dought if i try my parents will send me to mental hospital first ahaha

no other spiritual teacher can be in the hight of osho.He is master of the master.His books are great to read and fell bless listing to his discourse .

Sometimes it's okay to be miserable. Suffering makes you stronger. Don't go looking for ecstasy everywhere.

Why people don't get it i will never know, bow down to no man. He is just a man, same as any other spiritual saint, savior, etc. Of mankind..

I found it funny how Americans were fighting against Indian colonizers.

The one and only Osho..who remains undiscovered 🙏 Osho was more than, this crazy meditation. Everyone pls listen to his speeches to understand him better

I want a wild wild west 2.0 Feat. Will Smith This is my 35th petition

Guy told people to get rid of everything they own and he owned one of the largest rolls royce cpllections.

Osho sanyassins are as diverse as any other group of people. Some practice this type of meditation which was designed by Osho to allow the busy western mind to find quietness. Many practice more "normal" meditations like Vipassana or (in my case) Shikantaza/Zazen. Many older sanyassins no longer meditate at all. (Many still do). The only thing we all have in common is a love and respect for Osho. BTW, there are still many sanyassins living in communal situations all over the world. Rajneeshpuram failed (IMO) because far too many of Americas highly educated youth were attracted, so it had to be destroyed. Remember also that it was Reagan who was president at the time and Osho was VERY rude about him. And of course Sheela who was in charge was an awful human being.

Anybody who is speaking without knowing osho must listen to him. Many of his videos are available on KZfaq.

I think Osho himself had great philosophical insight, in spite of his blatant materialism. His followers, however, went off the deep end and they formed a community that not only were outsiders not prepared for, but the followers themselves were not prepared for. I have a collection of Osho's writings and lectures. Osho was ahead of his time. Maybe in 100 years, people will be ready for his ideas. But not in the 1980s, and still not even today. Our planetary consciousness needs to evolve to even consider what he said.

what the heck is this, -- some high class weed :)

Even US government was afraid of him and worried that he might effect elections.

It’s quite pleasant to know that things are getting better . Osho my beloved . 😘😘😘😘

He was popular in the 70s though because I worked with some people who were into him.

The editing of Dynamic Meditation in this video is a misrepresentation of the entire process. Yes, it looks crazy and is a crazy experience, but it really helps to release all the tension held in the body accumulated over years of repressed emotions. I have practiced this every day for a month with great results. Osho realized that modern and Western people needed something different than the traditional seated meditation. I’ve heard his personal Dr. say that he would prescribe Dynamic Meditation for only certain amount of time. Watching it on video is hilarious. If you get the chance to do this with a group, do it. You won’t regret it.

I did this for 3 days, and got the cathrasis I wanted. Dynamic meditation really helped

I've done the dynamic meditation and man is it powerful. I recommend it 10/10

This is totally beautiful! I was so happy being near Osho and the happy, happy energy of everyone around Him. I am so lucky that I had the chance to visit Him and His commune in Oregon. Thank you!

Never idiolize anyone. Figure it out on your own

Osho my beloved Master ❤️🌹💓

3:00 when you realize you have a test that you didn’t study for

Osho was never a cult He was a man who had understood living in the present and joy in a new dimension of life

0:44 Woman wear your seatbelt godammit!

Pfft, if I were in that meditation, that wouldn't have been enough time to "let it all go". I'd still be screaming as the rest of the room fell silent.

5:45 the sex swing just chillin in the back ground LOL 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂😎

You didn't mention whether or not these people paid to attend this session or how much the organisers are making from their activities. I would've thought that's important but hey I'm not a journalist so what do I know.

As an ex Christian of 30 years, Just a few of oshos sentences made more sense to me than the whole bible. I'm a new person because of osho. Once you understand human nature, religion just becomes ridiculous and uneccesery.

Meditation save my life ❤ Love you Hindu religion 💝🕊

They're like the underground people in the movie Us

Osho was woke af. I have listened to him for years and read many of his books. His message is timeless.

Imagine living next door too all that going on

5:40 owned the moment! Amazing and I have heard Osho a lot. Damnn he changed my way of thinking forever /\

" A man who stands for nothing will fall for anything " - Malcolm X

I dont understand how people can be so weak minded to allow others to essentially have ultimate control over others.

0:19 there's a dude just doing the two step . Great moves

"We're the sex cult allegations real? " Camera points at sex swing in the corner over the guru's shoulder

I scream till I can’t breathe and then I feel the wait life up off from me

I'm sure their neighbors love them 😂

Osho is NOT a religion. This is NOT a documentary.

i love osho. im a follower

World needs India's ancient teaching s more than anything else .

5:44 this guy looks like a white Bill Cosby 😂

I love his quotes!!!

8:39 was the best part of video

How are you? I was there too. I always hoped to hear his gifts again🥰

they have mistaken osho. the message gone through enlightened soul to these stupid people have not caught well to them, it's not what they are continuing to do

He failed in building a city. But his teachings and techniques of calming and taming the mind were absolutely a work of genius. Amazing man. Osho. The master of masters.

I found it interesting that the film Wild wild country is actually about a billionaire (Nike corporation) who is only mentioned once in the film for a few minutes, using those miserable pensioners to bully those who were happily enjoying their life in privacy, at their own place in the desert. Just another example of who is REALLY controlling the WORLD. They don't need truly happy people, they need those who are afraid of their own life and existence- easy to be controlled. So sad!

Ever noticed that all the female journalists at vice have a boy cut, Does that ring a bell?

Osho was waay ahead of his time. A genius will always be misunderstood from the dumb masses. The Comment section proves this... The truth is osho was one of the most intelligent, most beautiful, most integer human beings this earth has ever faced.

It's the bagwan!! I went to the auction after they got run out of Wasco county. I couldn't begin to afford anything they had. First time I ever actually saw a Rolls-Royce though.

1:57 "marijuana AND weed" huh? How did this little hipster boy get a nose piercing at such a young age??

This reminds me of “Documentary Now - Batshit Valley - Season 3 Part 2.”

Man, I was just a gradeschool kid when this shit was going down around me, and we forget that ex Rajneeshis are still living all around us. But Wild Wild Country really brought it all back. For what it's worth, the salad bar at Spooky's Pizza was probably going to give everyone a disease anyways.

Vice tries so hard to have these hip and "cool" hosts lol

I spent three months in the Ashram in Puna, in 1975, and visited the Ranch a few times, while working in Portland, Oregon. In 200 years that will be the major religion, I hope. It's all common sense! It didn't fail, it was before it's time.

After watching wild wild country I am even more convinced of the human mind bending tactics that have corroded our beings for many centuries . To be referred to as an occult and weird because they were wanting to build a city where they could live without the oppression of some religious belief system. Every one was welcome to join together and release the teachings of such beliefs. It was a great sharing of human love. The rigidity of the local Christian ranchers and citizens of antelope was a knot tied life that need not exist. They blamed everything on people who wanted to be free in what they feel. It is not the first time this has happened. The ranch and city the newcomers wanted to build was not that of antelope but on a large property purchased. The townspeople turned it into a fight. I do not feel as though anyone needs to follow another. I would hope there was much felt in the beauty of our universe and the energy we all share.

His house is in my neighbourhood. I think they offer free meditation during the weekend.

"As their mouths were open, he would put other things in there too." 😒

3:04 when the Acid Hits

I gotta make an explanation about sex cult, My observation - Here is the thing a common human often wonders or thinks in an unhealthy marriage or relationship about other men or women. The reason why all the cheating and madness happen. With this experiment i truly believe by letting all of it out you get to the true calmness within yourself. Even physically you can truly fall in love with a person and you indulge in it. This leads to a road of honesty and trust. Also instead of hooking up slowly through all many years , you get done with it once n for all. After that there is space for love and only love.

Although very controversial I find Osho’s books very insightful

When I clang this sauce pan lid, you'll all magically be hungry infants in a crib. 2:57

So many close minded people in the comments, clearly most of them never even listened to a single Osho talk, they just listen to the media without doing any research and they are the ones calling his followers gullible.

Fascinating documentary...

> Host is Indian-American... Can't even pronounce Bhagwan correctly.

Dynamic meditation.. loved it ❤

I've met drunks down the pub who offer more intellect then Bhagwan and they don't want all my money

I am not a follower but I've read a number of books by Osho/Rajneesh and can safely say, based on my extensive research into religion and spirituality, that his was one of the greatest spiritual minds that ever existed. Besides, he made people, often deeply broken people, feel good about themselves. What else does one need from a "cult"?
