KeepRedirect Our article on it is very poor, but there are nearly a couple of hundred matches in google books: Even discounting the primary sources, there's still a few dozen solid scholarly sources left. A few dozen matches in google scholar: Google generally: about 20,000 matches. Jayen466 05:39, 19 January 2009 (UTC)- As for the trademark, they seem to have lost it, according to this press report just a couple of days ago: Jayen466 05:48, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
- Redirect to Osho (aka, Bhagwan Sree Rajneesh). Nothing about this product/brand name for meditation establishes any notability apart from the Rajneesh movement, so any mention of it belongs there and not in a separate article. KleenupKrew (talk) 06:01, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
- Given the present state of the article, I don't think I would quibble with a redirect decision. However, Süss (1996, ISBN 3532640104, p. 123), a Christian scholar, asserts the technique is done in various generic workshops, as well as some schools and universities; Stephen Murgatroyd, Senior Counsellor at The Open University in Wales, mentions using it in a book on Counselling published by Routledge Taylor & Francis Group (an academic publisher); it pops up in a book on Stress Management; a book on Transpersonal Psychology again by Routledge Taylor & Francis Group, and going from the sublime to the ridiculous, it's also got a mention in The Complete Idiot's Guide to Tantric Sex (Penguin Books). The work presently cited in the article actually devotes five pages to a description of it. I'm only saying, if someone were to find himself at a loose end on a rainy afternoon, it would be possible to write a well-sourced article about it ... Cheers, Jayen466 07:11, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
- Heh. I'm from Oregon and remember hearing about this cult. My cousin actually joined it. Anyway, redirect to Osho. As KleenupKrew said, there's nothing about this article that establishes notability outside the Rajneesh. Graymornings(talk) 06:30, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
- Redirect for now. there could be a valid detailed article--there's no shortage of sources. But at the moment, all the content is included in the main article. DGG (talk) 00:59, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
- The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
