In the last week of September 1985, after Sheela had fled in disgrace, Rajneesh declared that the religion of "Rajneeshism" and "Rajneeshees" no longer existed, and that anything bearing the name would be dismantled. [46] His disciples set fire to 5,000 copies of the Book of Rajneeshism, a 78-page compilation of his teachings that had defined Rajneeshism as "a religionless religion".[46][47] Rajneesh said he ordered the book-burning to rid the sect of the last traces of the influence of Sheela,[47] whose robes were added to the bonfire.[47]
