OSHO®? --$tConclusion --$tNotes --$tSelected Bibliography --$tIndex 330 $aZorba the Buddha is the first comprehensive study of the life, teachings, and following of the controversial Indian guru known in his youth as Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh and in his later years as Osho (1931-1990). Most Americans today remember him only as the "sex guru" and the "Rolls Royce guru," who built a hugely successful but scandal-ridden utopian community in central Oregon during the 1980's. Yet Osho was arguably the first truly global guru of the twentieth century, creating a large transnational movement that traced a complex global circuit from post-Independence India of the 1960's to Reagan's America of the 1980's and back to a developing new India in the 1990's. The Osho movement embodies some of the most important economic and spiritual currents of the past forty years, emerging and adapting within an increasingly interconnected and conflicted late-capitalist world order. Based on extensive ethnographic and archival research, Hugh Urban has created a rich and powerful narrative that is a must-read for anyone interested in religion and globalization. 606 $aGurus$vBiography 606 $aNew Age movement$zOregon$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aNew Age movement$zIndia$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aGurus 615 0$aNew Age movement$xHistory 615 0$aNew Age movement$xHistory. 676 $a299/.93 700 $aUrban$b Hugh B.$01041527 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910460541703321 996 $aZorba the Buddha$92465119 997 $aUNINA
