Why did he try to kill people? I think it's because he was as psychotic as Charles Manson.
Besides when it comes to zen, there is no finding or seeking; only being.

I don’t understand how he tried to kill people ? Kindly elaborate, I’m curious
In the 80's his intentional community had a biolab which was used to poison food at restaurants, and eventually they tried to poison the water supply of Madras, OR.
After that, he fled back to India to avoid any of the legal hassles associated with attempted mass murder.
Additionally, my father was stopped on a public highway by his followers with UZIs.
There have been two documentaries made about his stay in Oregon. Poisoning people wasn't the only horrible part of that story, but it shows the slime under the robe.
