ANSWER:-


Connect is -- Osho --"Rajneesh" Chandra Mohan Jain

first pic -- spirit of ecstasy -- Rolls Royce -- He had 93 Rolls Royce --He drove a different Rolls royce each day – his followers reportedly wanted to buy him 365 of them, one for each day of the year.

Second Pic --Vinod Khanna --worked as Osho's gardener in Rajneeshpuram

Third Pic -- The University of Sagar also known as Dr. Hari Singh Gour University --Osho is an alumni of this university -- Done BA and MA

Fourth Pic – William James-Osho explains that His name is derived from William James' word 'oceanic' which means dissolving into the ocean. Oceanic describes the experience, He says, but what about the experiencer? For that we use the word 'Osho.' At the same time, He came to find out that 'Osho' has also been used historically in the Far East, meaning "The Blessed One, on whom the Sky Showers Flowers."



The epitaph reads, "OSHO. Never Born, Never Died. Only Visited this Planet Earth between Dec 11 1931 – Jan 19 1990."
