Osho: Never Born Never Died. Only visited this Planet Earth between December 11, 1931-Janurary 19, 1990. As this final inscription suggests, Osho Rajneesh was a paradox: an individual with no claims to being an individual a Master with thousands of disciples who refused to be a Master. He has variously been seen as "the god that failed", the most dangerous man since Jesus Christ" and "the Buddha for the future". This book brings together some of the best short writings in English on Osho and neo-Sannyasa. Some of the pieces are celebratory, some inquisitive but uncommitted, some scholarly and some frankly sceptical. The book is divided into four parts, dealing with Osho himself, his community, meditation and therapy and the decline and renewal of his movement, with a postscript on the present commune. Together the papers provide a full picture of a complex man and a vibrant, if turbulent, religious movement.

Harry Aveling

Harry Aveling (born 1942 in Sydney) is an Australian scholar, translator and teacher. He specialises in Indonesian and Malaysian literature, and Translation Studies.[1][2] He received the degrees of Doctor of Philosophy in Malay Studies from the National University of Singapore and Doctor of Creative Arts (DCA) from the University of Technology, Sydney. Besides his academic writing, he has translated extensively from Indonesian and Malay, from Vietnamese Francophone literature, and also co-translated from Hindi.[1][2] He has been awarded the Anugerah Pengembangan Sastra (Literature Development Award) for his translation work.[3] Aveling has two sons, a daughter and three granddaughters. In the early 1960s Aveling began studying Indonesian and Malay. He lived in Malaysia for three years of "total immersion" during the 1970s. He later described this as a time when the Malaysian government was in desperate need for foreign professors to teach in their newly revitalised education system; Malay teachers during the period were earning doctorates abroad. By this time he had already translated several volumes.[4] Aveling has held the rank of Adjunct Professor of Southeast Asian Literature at Ohio University since 2002. In 2001 Ohio University Press published his study of Indonesian poetry during the New Order under President Suharto, which outlined the development of the medium in its socio-historical context. Writing for The Jakarta Post, Lie Hua noted that it was perhaps the first such study but that it had several mistranslations.[5] By this time he had translated more than 50 volumes of Indonesian and Malay literature.[3] In 2006 he served as Visiting Professor of Translation Studies at the Faculty of Humanities, University of Indonesia.[6] Aveling was a Member of the Doctoral Studies Committee for the Faculty of English Linguistics and Literature, University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and taught there in 2008 and 2009. In late 2010, he taught in the Graduate School of Gadjah Mada University, Yogyakarta, Indonesia.[7] He is a Fellow of the Stockholm Collegium for World Literary History, Stockholm University, representing island Southeast Asia. He was President of the Australian Association for Literary Translation, 2005–2008, and is currently Immediate Past President of the Malaysia and Singapore Society, a regional subgroup of the Asian Studies Association of Australia. He currently holds Adjunct Full Professorships in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, La Trobe University[2] and the School of Literatures, Languages, Cultures and Linguistics, Monash University,[8] both in Melbourne, Australia. In Fall 2014 he was Visiting Professor of English in Creative Writing at the University of Maryland, College Park. In Nov, 2015, Dr Aveling returned to the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam as a visiting professor to teach the course "Translation Studies" for Vietnamese MA students by the invitation of the Faculty of English Linguistics and Literature. In 2019 Dr Aveling was shortlisted for the NSW Premier's Literary Awards Translation Prize
