Summary/Abstract: The main aim of the text is to analyse some aspects of Nietzsche’s philosophy that are inappropriately referred to by Shree Rajneesh (Osho) and omitted by Michael Skowron in his research, and to interpret them critically, taking into account the context in which they function in the whole reflection of this guru. The research methodology used in the article is based on the analysis, reconstruction and synthesis of Osho’s texts. The research conducted indicates that Osho perceives Nietzsche’s views in a non-scientific way, subjectively fitting them to the assumptions of his own concept of freedom and human self-development.
