Shivapuri Baba Says…
Relatively speaking everybody is right. Absolutely speaking everybody is wrong.
Orthodox people cannot like me because I live like an up-to-date person. Up-to-date people cannot like me because I talk like an orthodox person. Only those who want to see the beyond can like me.
Do necessary duties for maintaining life and think maximum of God.

OSHO ABOUT SHIVAPURI
“Shivapuri Baba is an absolutely unknown mystic. He is one of the rarest flowering particularly in India where so many idiots are pretending to be Mahatmas. To find a man like Shivapuri Baba is really either luck or else a tremendous work of research. To find a real man like him among the crowd is almost impossible.”
