Meditation: The Osho Way

MEDITATION- THE OSHO WAY

If you want to live a more fulfilled life, first you will want to know your potential, who you really are.

Meditation is the route to that knowing. It is the methodology of the science of awareness.

The beauty of the inner science is that it enables whoever wants to explore and to experiment within, to do so alone. This eliminates dependence on an outer authority, the need to be affiliated with any organization and the obligation to accept a certain ideology. Once you understand the steps, you walk the walk in your own, individual way.
Many meditative techniques require one to sit still and silent. But for most of us accumulated stress in our bodymind makes that difficult. Before we can hope to access our inner powerhouse of consciousness, we need to let go of our tensions.
Osho Active Meditations have been scientifically designed by Osho over a period of time to enable us to consciously express and experience repressed feelings and emotions, and learn the knack of watching our habitual patterns in a new way.

DYNAMIC MEDITATION

Recommended to be done in the morning, this hour-long method is a powerful way to kick-start your day. It provides an outlet for tension and withheld emotions as well as being a great energy-booster!

KUNDALINI MEDITATION
Known as the “sister meditation” to Dynamic, with four stages of fifteen minutes each this method is a gentle yet effective way to release all the accumulated stress of your day.

NATARAJ MEDITATION
Dance, giving it all you have got, is an easy and natural way to turn in. This method has three stages, and lasts a total of sixty-five minutes.

NADABRAHMA MEDITATION
A sitting method, that is one-hour long, in which humming and hand movements create an inner balance and stillness.

GOURISHANKAR MEDITATION
A one-hour nighttime meditation, which includes a breathing technique, gazing softly at a light and gentle body movements.

MANDALA MEDITATION
Mandala means circle. Every circle contains a center. The aim of this technique is to create a circle of energy so that centering results naturally. At the end, one is left in absolute stillness, absolute silence.

WHIRLING MEDITATION
"Sufi whirling is one of the most ancient techniques, one of the most forceful. It is so deep that even a single experience can make you totally different. Whirl with open eyes, just like small children go on twirling, as if your inner being has become a center and your whole body has become a wheel, moving, a potter’s wheel, moving. You are in the center, but the whole body is moving."

THE ART OF LISTENING
The Osho audio talks are keys to understanding silence. For the first time in history, talking is used to provide an experience of listening, not to gain knowledge but to directly experience one’s own center of stillness, silence and relaxed awareness.

GIBBERISH and LET-GO
A method of release using sound and body movement, Gibberish has been described by Osho as “one of the most scientific ways to clean your mind.”
It is followed by a guided relaxation into a state of complete let-go.
