I had here in Amsterdam the "official" audio tapes (Köln remastering, "Osho Master Tapes Amsterdam"), which I take as my master data. Comparing that with the CD-Rom and listening to the tapes gave this table:

Osho Master Tapes  |  CD-ROM     | 
ArchiveCode NUM    |  NUM        | 
-------------------|-------------|-
86-08-11-0  11 *      missing 
86-08-11-5  12        12 
86-08-12-0  13        ** 
86-08-12-5    **      12 (sic) 
86-08-13-5  14        14  
86-08-14-5  15        missing 
89-07-21-0  16        16  

               * Audio announced, but not received at OMT and not avaible for sale in Pune.
              ** 1986, August 12: OMT tapes says AM, CD-ROM says PM. No idea what's right. Anyhow, the number 12 on the CD-ROM is probabably in error, should be 13. 
                 Content of the tape/OW-mp3 has been checked against the CD-ROM, this conforms to the table.

I saw the same four archive codes in the CD-ROM as you note but numbered differently as chapters, respectively 12, 12, 14 and 16. In that scenario, # 11 and 15 are the missing ones and 13 is mis-numbered but present. 13 mis-numbered as 12 occurs in both toggles of the contents button, ie it is consistent. -- doofus-9 19:32, 13 November 2015 (UTC)

I updated the table, because the original CD-Rom version 1.01 (which is probably also Doofus' version) turns out to be different from the version that I normally use. --Sugit (talk) 12:27, 14 November 2015 (UTC)


I renewed the table, as some new facts and especially new video material has shown up. --Sugit (talk) 14:01, 18 February 2017 (UTC)

(1) As written on the tape and spoken in the announcement.
(2) As written on the tape.
(3) As shown in the title-credits.
(4) In an earlier edition of the audiotapes the title was The Rajneesh Upanishad. 
(5) No video, audio or text is known to exist. The CD-ROM omits this chapter-number.
  • I propose to call "86-08-11-5" number #12, as both CD-ROM and audio agree there. (Video says #11 though.)
  • This means following the designations of the 1990's audio tapes. C.f. the CD-ROM: only the second #12 is changed to #13. Chapter #11 (date unknown) would then be missing, maybe an interview that was not recorded or missing media.
  • Forget about my earlier remark ** that "1986, August 12: OMT tapes says AM". That may have been written on the mastertape, but the original intro said PM.

NOTE : Sugit has transcribed Ch 15 from tape and it is now available in the sourceDB !! --Rudra 20:16, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
