Besides being a kooky dude, was Osha actually an Actualist? Maye even one of the founders?!
I founded this on his website, lots of crazy wisdom from that crazy guy, reminds me of someone...

Disclaimer: I don't really believe Osho (or Richard or...) was really the first to discover our natural state, or bare awareness, or Pure Conscious Experience, or..., because it defies common sense and logic. Just throwing this out there to beat that already well bludgeoned horse a bit more
BTW, the Pure Conscious Experience is AKA PCEs, don't acronyms make things sounds so new and shiny? Many believe they, acronyms that is, began in the mid-60's when widespread literary use showed up, attributed to a US military origin, but they really go back to BCE at least. Probably even before that. Go figure (LOL)

My way has been described as that of the heart, but it is not true. The heart will give you all kinds of imaginings, hallucinations, illusions, sweet dreams ― but it cannot give you the truth. The truth is behind both; it is in your consciousness, which is neither head nor heart. Just because the consciousness is separate from both, it can use both in harmony. The head is dangerous in certain fields, because it has eyes but it has no legs ― it is crippled.

The heart can function in certain dimensions. It has no eyes but it has legs; it is blind but it can move tremendously, with great speed ― of course, not knowing where it is going. It is not just a coincidence that in all the languages of the world love is called blind. It is not love that is blind, it is the heart that has no eyes.

As your meditation becomes deeper, as your identification with the head and the heart starts falling, you find yourself becoming a triangle. And your reality is in the third force in you: the consciousness. Consciousness can manage very easily, because the heart and the head both belong to it.

Osho's quote reminds me of Claudiu saying Actualism was a third path, distinct from spiritualism and materialism
Osho refer's to Consciousness as a third way as well, as opposed to the head (materialism) and the heart (spiritualism)
Threads being tied together? Or not this not this?
