Osho: "Life needs a balance between the depth and the height"

8/25/2012

3 Comments

 
"I want people to be so awake that their whole consciousness goes to the deepest part of their being, and also to the highest peak. A vertical growth, just like a tree grows. Its roots go down into the earth, and its branches spread towards the stars. Its blossoms flower into the sky, its nourishment comes from the deepest part of the earth. It is always balanced; higher the tree goes, the deeper it’s roots.

You cannot have a Cedar of Lebanon, a 400- or 500-year old tree, rising so high in the sky, with small roots—it will fall down immediately. Life needs a balance between the depth and the height; I teach you both simultaneously.

In your entering to the Center in meditation, you are growing your roots deeper into the Cosmos. And bringing the Buddha out from the hidden center is bringing your fragrance, bringing your grace, bringing your ecstasy, higher, where it can blossom into the sky.

Your ecstasy is a movement toward the height, and your meditation is a movement towards the depth, and once you have both, your life becomes a celebration.

THAT IS MY WORK: TO TRANSFORM YOUR LIFE FROM A SAD AFFAIR INTO A CELEBRATION!"

From: Zen Fire, Zen Wind, Chapter 5

Try this - Humming Meditation from "The Orange Book"

12/6/2011

2 Comments

 
Humming is an old Tibetan technique which I learned from Osho, particularly through his Nadabrahma meditation, and I sometimes like to do 10-15 minutes of Humming in groups in the evening as a way of harmonizing the body energies which need relaxation after a “hard days’ work” on the muscular armoring.

HUMMING—excerpted from “The Orange Book”, pp 151-154, 1980

"Humming can be a tremendous help and you can do it whenever…At least once a day, if you can do it twice it will be good. It is such a great inner music that it brings peace to your whole being; then your conflicting parts start falling in tune and by and by a subtle music which you can hear arises in your body.

After three or four months you will just be sitting silently and you can hear a subtle music, a harmony inside, a kind of humming.

Sit in a relaxed position with eyes closed and lips together. Start humming, loudly enough to be heard by others and create a vibration throughout your body. You can visualize a hollow tube or an empty vessel, filled only with the vibrations of the humming. A point will come when the humming continues by itself and you become the listener. There is no special breathing and you can alter the pitch or move your body smoothly and slowly if you feel like it."


For this meditation I usually use the first stage of Osho’s Nadabrahma Meditation (click here to order a copy) as background music. After 10-15 minutes of humming in a circle together with the group, I ring a bell and we simply sit silently for another 5 minutes; then I ring a bell at the end to bring everyone back.

Osho on Cathartic Methods

Osho on Cathartic Methods

    “Cathartic methods are modern inventions. In Buddha’s time they were not needed because people were not so repressed. People were natural, people lived primitive lives—uncivilised, spontaneous lives. So Vipassana---vipassana means insight—was given by Buddha directly to people.    
    But now you cannot go into Vipassana directly. And the teachers who go on teaching Vipassana directly don’t belong to this century; they are two thousand years backward. Yes, sometimes they may help one or two persons out of one hundred persons, but that can’t do much.    
    I am introducing cathartic methods, so that first what the civilization has done to you can be undone, so you can become primitive again. From that primitiveness, from primal innocence, insight becomes easily available.”

From: The Orange Book, p. 28

Try this - Osho Dynamic Meditation

3/8/2011

Recently I found my moldy old copy of “The Orange Book: The Meditation Techniques of Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh”, first published in 1980. It is packed with all kinds of wonderful techniques, with beautiful explanations and commentaries. I would like to share some of these meditations here, and include Osho’s words about the meditations he created, from this jewel of a book.
 
So let’s come back to ‘square one’ in this issue of the Pulsation Newsletter and feature the Dynamic Meditation.
Dynamic Meditaion is a very powerful tool that we can use at any point in our journey. The benefits of doing Dynamic regularily are many. It loosens the blocks in the body and helps the life energy to flow more fully again. It gives space to unload old emotional baggage and it opens the door to deep insights and understandings.

Let’s not forget the huge benefits that lie hidden in the depths of this revolutionary meditation! Yes, it takes a special effort to get to, and go through, the Dynamic in the early morning. But its deep-cleaning effects on the body/energy systems and the mind, can change the colors of our days!

Here is an article I wrote about how Dynamic meditation and Pulsation complement and support each other:

Since most of you have done the Dynamic Meditation before, and many of you have practiced it for many years, I won't give detailed instructions here, instead follow the links below.

Dynamic Meditation - very detailed, with lots of additional info (On Activemeditation.com) >
 
And now, have fun with this life-transforming meditation!

Osho: "Is it possible to celebrate misery?"

12/16/2010

1 Comment

 
 Answering the question, “Is it possible to celebrate misery?”
“This is a wrong attitude that has been given to you—that sadness is wrong. Nothing is wrong with it. It is another polarity of life.
Happiness is one pole, sadness is another. Blissfulness is one pole, misery is another. Life consists of both, and life is richer because of both.
A life only of blissfulness will have extension, but will not have depth. A life of only sadness, will have depth, but will not have extension. A life of both sadness and blissfulness is multi-dimensional; it moves in all dimensions together.
To me, life in its totality is good. And when you understand life in its totality, only then can you celebrate; otherwise not. Celebration means: whatsoever happens is irrelevant—I will celebrate. Celebration is not conditional on certain things: “When I am happy then I will celebrate”, or “When I am unhappy I will not celebrate”.
Celebration is unconditional; I celebrate life. It brings unhappiness—good, I celebrate it. It brings happiness—good, I celebrate it. Celebration is my attitude, unconditional to what life brings.”

Osho: "Begin With the Body"

10/4/2010

     “The first thing is to learn respect for the body, to unlearn all the nonsense that has been taught to you about the body. Otherwise, you will never turn on, and you will never turn in, and you will never turn beyond. Start from the beginning. The body is your beginning.
    The body has to be purified of many repressions. A great catharsis is needed for the body, a great rechana. The body has become poisoned because you have been against it, you have repressed it in many ways. Your body is existing at the minimum, that’s why you are miserable. Tantra says: Bliss is possible only when you exist at the optimum--never before it. Bliss is possible only when you live intensely. How can you live intensely if you are against the body?
    You are always luke-warm. The fire has cooled down. Down the centuries the fire has been destroyed. The fire has to be rekindled.
    Tantra says: First purify the body—purify it of all repressions. Allow the body energy to flow, remove the blocks. It is very difficult to come across a person who has no blocks, it is very difficult to come across a person whose body is not tight. Loosen this tightness—this tension is blocking your energy; the flow cannot be possible with this tension.”

Osho: "So start this breathing"

"So start this breathing. And enjoy it. Just by sheer breathing you can come to a subtle orgasm in the whole body. The whole body can be infused with new energy. You can vibrate all over and you can see many parts of your body that you have denied. becoming alive again."

From: Darshan Diaries, The Cypress in the Courtyard, Chapter 8
