I've spent the last 10 years maintaining an online directory of the so called ''Friends of Osho'' which was originally hosted on ''www.sannyas.net'' and moved to ''www.sannyas.org'' in 2002.
This wiki had its beginnings when [[Sw Anand Rudra|Rudra]] launched an online directory of the so called ''Friends of Osho'' in 1998 and which was originally hosted on ''[https://web.archive.org/web/19991110055146/http://sannyas.net/ www.sannyas.net]'' and moved to ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20020803030725/http://www.sannyas.org/ www.sannyas.org]'' in 2002.


Following that I've added the ''Osho Bibliography''.
Once on ''sannyas.org'', the ''Osho Bibliography'' was added.


The website has now grown so much that it has become impossible for one person to look after it and it now needs the support of everyone who has made use of this website in the past.
In 2013, the website, which was driven by a Visual Foxpro database, was ported to MySQL with a MediaWiki front end. This finally opened the doors to new editors and much more content.


A Wiki is the perfect vehicle for that. I'm now in the process of converting the ''sannyas.org'' databases into the wiki format. After that, the seed will hopefully grow into an amazing tree.

This wiki had its beginnings when Rudra launched an online directory of the so called Friends of Osho in 1998 and which was originally hosted on www.sannyas.net and moved to www.sannyas.org in 2002.

Once on sannyas.org, the Osho Bibliography was added.

In 2013, the website, which was driven by a Visual Foxpro database, was ported to MySQL with a MediaWiki front end. This finally opened the doors to new editors and much more content.

It should be noted that we are in no way affiliated with the Wikimedia Foundation or its Wikipedia. Although we link to the Wikipedia on many of our pages, we do not endorse the Wikimedia Foundation or any content in the Wikipedia including the Wikipedia pages we link to.
