I did a glance at the article and observed the title, the authors, and other descriptive information that was supplied. Five authors were had taken part in this article, and it was published about ten years after the situation at occurred. Jotting down a few ponits, and underlining key terms, I went through the material content and was able to relate to the actual world interrelatedness of the ancient occurrence that almost paralyzed communities in proximity to where I stayed in the 1980's.

In summarizing this writing, I saw it to be enlightening as the authors explained in details the outcome of their study. They at first described what initially happend in Oregon when they Rajneeshees inhabited the region and dealt more on specific occurrence that was seen at that period. This information is likey the most useful of this writeup. However, they looked at 231 previous occupants of Rajneeshpuramabout 16-24 months when they have departed from Rancho Rajneesh. Those who answered to two different survey stated their persistent distress with the development, their behaviours, ideas or feelings in the direction of their experience while occupying Rajneeshpuram, their interaction with the Bhagwan, and other things that led to the tumble of the commune. In general, the survey findings showed that the precious occupants and followers of the Bhagwan, were always optimistic about their encounter at the period they inhabited the ranch. The best clarification of life at Rajneeshpuram coupled with the Rajneeshees' behaviours of life situations, the method by which they went away from the community, and the persistent aid and participation with the society as a reference set. The survey studies really gave information that upheld the reasons for the tumble of the compound.
