PEOPLE, Page 78Butt Out, Buddha!By Howard G. Chua-Eoan
Evicted from his hedonistic Oregon ashram three years ago, the
BHAGWAN SHREE RAJNEESH has settled down in Pune, near Bombay, where
he recently told his 10,000 disciples that he no longer wanted to
be called Bhagwan (God). His body, he proclaimed, was host to the
ascetic soul of GAUTAMA BUDDHA. Days later Rajneesh kicked out
Gautama, who he said disapproved of his Jacuzzi. "Four days are
enough," said Rajneesh. "I say goodbye to you." His newest
identity: "Zorba the Buddha," a pleasure-loving divinity who
travels the 1,200 ft. between home and work in a Rolls-Royce
equipped with TV, fridge and bar. Some guys never change.
