The decision is the result of an opposition lodged by Osho Friends International against Osho International Foundation in a case registerd in 1999.
In response, the Osho International Meditation Resort, Pune in a press release has clarified that this ruling is applicable only in the US and not in any other country, including India. Amrit Sadhana, part of the management team at the meditation resort, said that this decision will have no effect on Osho’s copyright which is protected by international treaties around the world. She said that they intend to appeal against the ruling at the earliest. For more than 40 years the Osho Foundations have always acted on Osho’s request to protect his name, his copyright and his work and will continue to do so, she said. Taking exception to the ruling, the release states that it means that “Osho is now in the same category as computers and tissues.”
