To Whom It May Concern:

In line with my professional work, I have read extensively in psychology and related fields. Included in my reading were many books by Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh.

My understanding of human behavior and its possible modification was greatly enhanced by the writings of Rajneesh. My professional practice improved markedly as a result of my study of his works.

He is a person of exceptional ability and a great asset to all who have the. good fortune to know him and his works.

Sincerely,
[signed]
