Indian mystic guru and spiritual teacher Osho has garnered a lot of international following because of his life and teachings. He was born as Chandra Mohan Jain but is also known as Acharya Rajneesh and Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh.

Osho was a professor of philosophy and travelled throughout India as a public speaker. His outspoken criticism of socialism, Mahatma Gandhi and institutionalised religions made him controversial. He had an open attitude towards sexuality: a stance that earned him the sobriquet 'sex guru'.
