Radical Methods for a World Gone Mad

Osho,
I have come across a statement by R. D. Laing that madness is not breakdown, it is breakthrough. Our meditations are seen as a breakdown, even by psychiatrists. Is it justified and ethical for patients with depression to be given OSHO Dynamic Meditation? Please advise. I am merely a surgeon.

“R.D. Laing is bringing a radical change into the world of therapy. He is not an ordinary psychiatrist, he is a revolutionary psychiatrist. He understands me and what I am doing here. He goes on sending his books to me. He reads what is happening here, what I am saying, what I am teaching. He has been meeting with sannyasins in London, he is immensely interested. But he is a revolutionary and his insight is great, and I agree with him in toto. He is right: madness is not a breakdown, it is a breakthrough.

“But one thing I would like to say: not all madnesses are breakthroughs. There are madnesses which are breakdowns and there are madnesses which are breakthroughs.

“But every madness can be transformed into a breakthrough — and that should be the work of the therapist.

“Even if the madness is a breakdown, the function of the therapist is to help the breakdown to be transformed into a breakthrough. Otherwise, what is your purpose? What are you doing?
