Firm in their belief that Osho was no ordinary “guru� but a rare, enlightened, self-realised soul, a number of Osho sanyasins want this hall to be preserved as a memorial. This was where Osho gave discourses and initiated disciples into meditation for three years till his death on January 19, 1990.
It was in this large, circular hall with a canvas dome, marble flooring and seating capacity for over 1,000 people that many visitors had their first glimpse of Osho.
Constructed in 1975 at the Koregaon Park Commune, thousands of Osho sanyasins have strong emotional attachment with the Buddha Hall. While the nine-storey black Pyramid is described by the Commune authorities and rebel sanyasins as the realisation of Osho’s last wish, there are sharp differences between the two over the dismantling of the Buddha Hall.
PUNE: Big changes are silently taking place at the Osho Commune in Pune where the Commune authorities have begun dismantling the much-revered Buddha Hall and opened new facilities such as a pyramidshaped auditorium and a hotellike ‘Guesthouse’.
