Guest dam10n Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 Anyone know anything about sanjasin in the trance scene? I picked up a few bits... like Osho set up this retreat on ibiza island years ago and everyone went for the enlightenment thing by taking loads of e (this was before acid house etc.) and he had a sort of cult going... then in a book about acid house I read that Riktam and Bansi are Sanjasin; but that raja isn't... Anyone know any more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest me Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 maybe you know aLREAdy but sanyasin are indian holy men...so i have trouble believing that riktam or bansi or anyone who makes trance falls into that category...furthermore i think sanyasin may be fully enlightened holy men and to attach that accolade to any of the afore mentioned seems a bit over the top...what is the book?

Guest dam10n Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 It's called Once In A Lifetime and pp 134-5 is about psy (well, goa really:) and i quote ------ FREE LOVE: THE ORIGINAL TRANCE DANCERS? When the average house fan was still a Chianti-sodden glance across a crowded social club, one group of people had already discovered the startling power of the trance dance. Since the sixties the Sanjasin, followers of Osho, the Bhagwan Rajneesh, have been dancing their way to an expanded-consciousness from their bases in California, Ibiza and India. The Sanjasin still have strong links with the trance scene. "Sanjasin? I'm not Sanjasin. Sanjasin men are a pain in the arse and you can quote me. Mind you, Sanjasin women are the loveliest people in the world" - Raja Ram DJ Riktam is the eldest of the psychedelic techno dynasty. His brother Shanti is just sixteen years old and also DJing. They are both Sanjasin. ------ (my mistake about Bansi. It's evidently Shanti.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dam10n Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 either way, there's evidently an evil and satanic religious cult at the heart of our scene gentlemen, and it's our job to put an end to this abhorrent evil madness. or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
