Consciencia Femenina, Experiencia Femenina

El hombre es como una roca y la mujer es como el agua. Cuando el agua cae sobre las rocas, la roca desaparece, antes o después se convierte en arena. Es ólo una cuestión de tiempo. En el primer contacto del agua con la roca, la roca es tan fuerte y el agua tan suave, que lógicamente nunca puedes imaginar que un día el agua

Rajneesh (born Chandra Mohan Jain, 11 December 1931 – 19 January 1990) and latter rebranded as Osho was leader of the Rajneesh movement. During his lifetime he was viewed as a controversial new religious movement leader and mystic.

In the 1960s he traveled throughout India as a public speaker and was a vocal critic of socialism, Mahatma Gandhi, and Hindu religious orthodoxy.

Rajneesh emphasized the importance of meditation, mindfulness, love, celebration, courage, creativity and humor—qualities that he viewed as being suppressed by adherence to static belief systems, religious tradition and socialization.

In advocating a more open attitude to human sexuality he caused controversy in India during the late 1960s and became known as "the sex guru".

In 1970, Rajneesh spent time in Mumbai initiating followers known as "neo-sannyasins". During this period he expanded his spiritual teachings and commented extensively in discourses on the writings of religious traditions, mystics, and philosophers from around the world. In 1974 Rajneesh relocated to Pune, where an ashram was established and a variety of therapies, incorporating methods first developed by the Human Potential Movement, were offered to a growing Western following. By the late 1970s, the tension between the ruling Janata Party government of Morarji Desai and the movement led to a curbing of the ashram's development and a back taxes claim estimated at $5 million.

In 1981, the Rajneesh movement's efforts refocused on activities in the United States and Rajneesh relocated to a facility known as Rajneeshpuram in Wasco County, Oregon. Almost immediately the movement ran into conflict with county residents and the state government, and a succession of legal battles concerning the ashram's construction and continued development curtailed its success.

In 1985, in the wake of a series of serious crimes by his followers, including a mass food poisoning attack with Salmonella bacteria and an aborted assassination plot to murder U.S. Attorney Charles H. Turner, Rajneesh alleged that his personal secretary Ma Anand Sheela and her close supporters had been responsible. He was later deported from the United States in accordance with an Alford plea bargain.[

After his deportation, 21 countries denied him entry. He ultimately returned to India and a revived Pune ashram, where he died in 1990. Rajneesh's ashram, now known as OSHO International Meditation Resort and all associated intellectual property, is managed by the Zurich registered Osho International Foundation (formerly Rajneesh International Foundation). Rajneesh's teachings have had a notable impact on Western New Age thought, and their popularity has increased markedly since his death.

Tengo entendido que OSHO, fue una persona muy controversial. Pero este libro llego a mí por cosas del destino y resonó en mí, así que me dio igual y seguí mi intuición. Es curioso ver que todo personaje icónico en la historia de la humanidad, siempre llega a ser polémico en algún sentido, Michael Jackson, David Bowie, Jesús, etc.

Hay muchas cosas que rescatar del libro. Me tome la libertad de leerlo, dos veces. La primera vez fui leyendo páginas al azar, ya que se divide en diferentes características femeninas tales como: la intuición, la belleza, la compasión, gratitud, reverencia hacia la vida, paciencia, etc. La segunda lo leí en orden. Me gustaron mucho las anécdotas del Gautama Bhudda, me recordaron a Jesús. Hace analogías muy bellas entre la naturaleza y el ser humano. Mucho de lo que comenta acerca de la consciencia femenina, tiene sentido para mí. Hay un conocimiento esotérico y simbólico. Sol como el hombre, Luna como la mujer.

Sin embargo, hubieron fragmentos que me sonaron muy idealistas, critica mucho a Marx, Nietzsche, Lenin, Mao. De una manera muy tajante, sin espacio al dialogo. Entiendo su crítica y hacia donde va, pero creo que esta muy sesgado por la era en la que escribió esto, ósea los 60s, 70s.
Por lo tanto me parece que tiene muy romantizado la energía femenina. En lo que a mi respecta, tiene que haber un equilibrio, pero entiendo que la gran mayor parte de la historia, el hombre ha estado en la cúspide del poder y por eso estamos donde estamos hoy en día. Entiendo plenamente porque toma esta posición reaccionaria.

Lo volvería a leer. Es corto y calma mi ansiedad de respuestas, que había olvidado.

Me ha gustado adentrarme en este libro y he de decir que para nada es feminista, aunque pueda parecerlo.
Te hace ver cómo lo femenino y masculino se complementan, aunque aún así, es necesaria más consciencia femenina para cambiar las perspectivas de muchas cosas.

Frase: "La conciencia no es masculina ni femenina, porque no le pertenece al cuerpo"
