Per Sahara71 reminding us that there is a connection between Rajneesh/OSHO followers and Mooji, here is some other food for thought: Rajnessh/OSHO followers (aka 'sanyassins') brought MDMA to Ibiza, the Spanish Balearic party island. Ibiza is an important node in the global nomad travel network, along with Goa, India, Bali, Thailand and other points.

Agreed, it becomes one game among many. Back in the 80s I had friends who were Rajneeshees, I saw how fast MDMA use spread through communities. I did not stay in touch with these friends, they were active in the Rajneesh / Osho international scene, I was not. One past friend recently killed himself. He had been a sannyasion for close to 30 years, often in Goa, and my guess is that he never

It may be no coincidence that Osho is being quoted here. The Osho/Rajneesh sanyassins are a very important part of the rave/club scene in Ibiza, Goa and South America.

Of course here is a previous post in this thread about this subject, hard to keep track of everything. Desteni farm, ecstasy, drugs, MDMA But if there are links and evidence of illegal drug use...one would assume the authorities would be interested in that information.
Forum: "Cults," Sects, and "New Religious Movements"

Its probably only a matter of time, until some journalist goes "undercover" and joins Desteni on the farm, and then writes an article about it. And if a sect is dealing with the group use, distribution, or manufacture of an illegal drug like MDMA, then the police may even send an undercover in to investigate.

the scammers running Desteni have taken their Forum offline from the general public. Desteni is getting more paranoid, more ruthless, more desperate, more coercive. Of course, any authority could monitor the Desteni forums very easily, even send an undercover into the Desteni farm if they believed there was reason for it.

Lastly, if some sect is using illegal drugs like Ecstasy-MDMA with minors, or with anyone, one assumes that would be investigated. Or if the sect has some registered, unregistered or illegal guns, certainly the local police would like to be aware of that. OSHO-Rajneesh was the cult leader who really promoted the use of MDMA, and would slip it to groups of people without their knowledge.
