Description
Various allegations are made in autobiographical reports by authors who spent their childhood in the Osho movement. Psychotropic drugs are added to the food,[119] children are separated from their parents,[119][120] everyone has to wear a picture of Osho[119][120] in psycho-seminars participants beat each other up and seriously injured[120] and 13-year-old girls would be abused by adult men.[119][120] The members, including children, would have had to work until they dropped without adequate pay.[119][120]

Osho was criticized for controversial statements in which he advocated the killing of disabled children, genetic improvements in humans and the exclusion of homosexuals from society, or indirectly blamed Jews for the rise of Adolf Hitler. Among other things, he is said to have said:

“A child should be recognized as a human being when he is born – and then, too, I have some reservations.

If a child is born blind or crippled, if a child is born deaf, dumb, and we cannot do anything... Just because life should not be destroyed, this child will have to suffer - because of your stupid idea - for seventy years, eighty years. Why create unnecessary suffering? If the parents are willing, the child should be put to eternal sleep. And there is no problem in it. Only the body goes back into its basic elements; the soul will fly into another womb. Nothing is destroyed.

If you really love the child, you will not want him to live a seventy-year-long life in misery, suffering, sickness, old age. So even if a child is born, if he is not medically capable of enjoying life fully with all the senses, healthy, then it is better that he goes to eternal sleep and is born somewhere else with a better body."

“homosexuals should be given different localities. They can live in their own world, in their own way, and be happy, but they should not be allowed to move in the wider society, spreading all kinds of dangerous viruses.”

“As a homosexual, you are not even a human being [...]. You have fallen from dignity.”
