I would like more and more writers, poets, film makers to steal as much as they can, because truth is not my property, I am not its owner. let it reach in any way, in anybody's name, in any form, but let it reach. Beyond Psychology#3 Q#2 : Osho

If you really want to know who I am, you have to be as absolutely empty as I am. Then two mirrors will be facing each other, and only emptiness will be mirrored: two mirrors facing each other. But if you have some idea, then you will see your own idea in me."

"Only that which cannot be taken away by death is real. Everything else is unreal, it is made of the same stuff dreams are made of." ~OSHO♥

24 घंटा ध्यान में कैसे रहना (अोशो)



यह प्रवचन किसी अोैर ने background music डाल कर YouTube मे अपलोड की थी । मैने वह वीडियो download कर के, जितनी हो सके वह background music हटाने की कोशिश की है।

This video was already uploaded by somebody else but with background music, which was very irritating. I downloaded that video and tried to remove that background music, as much as it was possible. Hope this helps.

OSHO on Nadabrahma Meditation


It is a mantra meditation, and mantra is one of the most potential ways. It is very simple yet tremendously effective, because when you chant a mantra or you chant a sound your body starts vibrating; your brain cells particularly start vibrating.
If rightly done your whole brain becomes tremendously vibrant, and the whole body also. Once the body starts vibrating and your mind is already chanting, they both fall in a tune. A harmony – which is ordinarily never there – between the two. Your mind goes on its way, your body continues on its own. The body goes on eating, the mind goes on thinking.’ the body goes on walking on the road the mind is moving far away in the stars. They never meet – they both go on separate pathways, and that creates a split.

The basic schizophrenia is created because the body goes in one direction, the mind goes in another direction. And you are the third element – you are neither the body nor the mind, so you are pulled apart by these two. Half of your being is pulled by the body and half of your being is pulled by your mind. So there is great anguish – one feels torn apart.


In a mantra meditation – Nadabrahma or any chanting – this is how the mechanism works: when you start chanting a sound – and any sound will do; even abracadabra – if you start resounding inside, the body starts responding. Sooner or later a moment comes when the body and the mind are both together in one direction for the first time. When body and mind are both together, you are free from the body and the mind – you are not tom apart. Then the third element which you are in reality – call it soul, spirit,’ atma’, anything – that third element is at ease because it is not being pulled in different directions.

The body and the mind are so much engrossed in chanting that the soul can slip out of them very easily, unobserved, and can become a witness – can stand out and look at the whole game that is going on between the mind and the body. It is such a beautiful rhythm that the mind and body never become aware that the soul has slipped out… because they don’t allow so easily, mm? they keep their possession. Nobody wants to lose his possession. The body wants to dominate the soul, the mind wants to dominate the soul.


This is a very sly way to get out of their hold. They become drunk with the chanting, and you slip out.
 So in Nadabrahma, remember this: let the body and mind be totally together, but remember that you have to become a witness. Get out of them, easily, slowly, from the back door, with no fight, with no struggle. Mm? they are drinking – you get out, and watch from the outside….
This is the meaning of the English word ‘ecstasy’ – to stand out. Stand out and watch from there… and it is tremendously peaceful. It is silence, it is bliss, it is benediction.
This is the whole secret of chanting – that’s why chanting has prevailed down the centuries. There has never been a religion that has not used chanting and mantra. But there is a danger also! If you don’t get out, if you don’t become a witness, there is a danger – then you have missed the whole point. If you become drunk with the body and the mind and your soul also becomes drunk, then chanting is an intoxicant. Then it is like a tranquiliser – it will give you a good sleep, that’s all. It is a lullaby. Good – nothing wrong in it – but not of any real value either.


So this is the pitfall to be remembered: chanting is so beautiful that one wants to get lost. If you are lost, then good, you enjoyed a rhythm, an inner rhythm, and it was beautiful and you liked it, but it was like a drug – it is an acid trip. By chanting, by the sound, you created certain drugs in your body.
 Chanting creates chemical changes in the body, and those changes are no different than marijuana or LSD. Some day, when research goes deeper into meditation, they are going to find that chanting creates chemical changes – just as fasting also creates chemical changes. 
After the seventh or eighth day of fasting, one feels tremendously jubilant, weightless, very glad for no reason, delighted – as if all burden has disappeared. Your body is creating a certain chemical change.
I am as much against LSD as I am against fasting. And if chanting is used as a drug, I am against it. So the point to be remembered is that you have to use the sound, the chanting, the mantra, not as an intoxicant for your being. Let it be an intoxicant for the body and the mind but you slip out of it before you become intoxicated; you stand out and you watch. You see the body swaying and you see the mind feeling very very peaceful and calm and quiet. Watch from the outside and be alert like a flame.


If this is not done you will have a good sleep but nothing more. Then it is a good thing for health but nothing for the ultimate growth.
 Good – pay attention to Nadabrahma, mm? And sometimes sitting silently, start chanting anything, ‘aum’, will do, or choose anything, any word, and get in tune with it. Meaning is not important: it can be meaningless – it can be meaningful. ‘Aum’ has no meaning. Or you can create your own mantra and chant it. But remember to slip out of it.
Let the body get drunk, let the mind get drunk, let them fall into a deep love-affair with each other, and you slip out of it. Don’t stay there longer – otherwise you will fall asleep. And if one falls asleep, it is not meditation. Meditation means awareness. So remember it!

Do Not Imagine; Wait, And Let Things Take Their Own Course


 People go on coming to me and they say, ”We have seen this and we have seen that.” But they have imagined it – because if really they had seen, they would be transformed. But they are not transformed. They are the same persons, only now a spiritual pride is added. They have some dreams – beautiful, spiritual dreams: someone is seeing Krishna playing on his flute, someone is seeing light, someone is seeing kundalini rising. They go on seeing things, and they remain the same – mediocre, stupid, dull. Nothing has happened to them; they go on relating that this is happening, that is happening, but they remain the same – angry, sad, childish, stupid. Nothing has changed.

If you really see the light which is there waiting for you, to be seen through the third eye, you will be a different person. And then you need not tell anyone. People will come to know you are a different person. You cannot even hide it; it will be felt. Wherever you will move, others will feel hat ”Something has happened to this man.”

So do not imagine; wait, and let things take their own course. You do the technique, and then wait. Do not jump ahead…

Put Your Awareness on the Spine - An OSHO Meditation Technique



Close your eyes and visualize your backbone. Let the backbone be straight, erect. Visualize it, see it, and just in the middle of it visualize a nerve, delicate as the lotus thread, running in the center of your spinal column.

In the spine, just in the center, there is a silver cord – a very delicate nerve. It is not really a nerve in the physiological sense. If you operate to find it; it will not be there. But in deep meditation it is seen. Through that thread you are related to the body, and through that thread also you are related to your soul.

First, visualize the spine. At first you will feel very strange, you will be able to visualize it, but as an imagination. And if you go on endeavoring, then it will not be just your imagination. You will become capable of seeing your spinal column.

Man can see his own body structure from within. We have not tried it because it is very, very fearful, loathsome: because when you see your bones, blood, veins, you become afraid. So really, we have completely blocked our minds from seeing within. We see the body from without, as if someone else is looking at the body. It is just as if you go outside this room and look at it – then you know the outer walls. Come in and look at the house – then you can look at the inner walls. You see your body from outside as if you are somebody else seeing your body. You have not seen your body from inside. We are capable of it, but because of this fear it has become a strange thing.

Indian yoga books say many things about the body, which have been found to be exactly right by new scientific research, and science is unable to explain this. How could they know? Surgery and knowledge of the inside of the human body are very recent developments. How could they know of all the nerves, of all the centers, of all the inner structures? They knew even about the latest findings; they have talked about them, they have worked upon them. Yoga has always been aware about all the basic, significant things in the body. But they were not dissecting bodies, so how could they know? Really, there is another way of looking at your own body – from within. If you can concentrate within, suddenly you begin to see your body – the inner lining of the body.

Close your eyes and feel your body. Relax. Concentrate on the spinal column. And this sutra says very simply, in such be transformed. And you will be transformed through it.

Breathe Watching Meditation

  1. Watching the Breath

Breath-watching is a method that can be done anywhere, at any time, even if you have only a few minutes available. You can simply watch the rise and fall of your chest or belly as the breath comes in and goes out, or try this version….

Step 1: Watch the In Breath

Close your eyes and start watching your breath. First, the inhalation, from where it enters your nostrils, right down into your lungs.

Step 2: Watch the Gap That Follows

At the end of the inhalation there is gap, before the exhalation starts. It is of immense value. Watch that gap.

Step 3: Watch the Out Breath

Now watch the exhalation.

Step 4: Watch the Gap That Follows

At the end of the exhalation there is a second gap: watch that gap. Do these four steps for two to three times – just watching the breathing cycle, not changing it in anyway, just watching the natural rhythm.

Step 5: Counting In Breaths

Now start counting: Inhalation – count 1 (don’t count the exhalation), inhalation – 2, and so on, up to 10. Then count from 10 back to 1. Sometimes you may forget to watch the breath or you may count beyond 10. Then start again, at 1.

“These two things have to be remembered: watching, and particularly the gaps at the top and the bottom. The experience of that gap is you, your innermost core, your being. And second: go on counting, but not more than up to 10; and come back again to 1; and only count the inhalation.

These things help awareness. You have to be aware, otherwise you will start counting the exhalation, or you will go over 10.

If you enjoy this meditation, continue it. It is of immense value.”

ध्यान के लिए सातत्य अनिवार्य है - ओशो



जितना गहरा सातत्य होगा, उतने ही अनुभव की प्रगाढ़ता होगी। अक्सर ऐसा हो जाता है कि दो दिन किया, एक दिन नहीं किया, तो आप फिर उसी जगह खड़े हो जाते हैं, जहां आप दो दिन करने के पहले थे। कम से कम तीन महीने के लिए तो एकदम सातत्य चाहिए। जैसे हम कुआं खोदते हैं, एक ही जगह खोदते चले जाते हैं। आज एक जगह खोदें, फिर दो दिन बंद रखें, फिर दूसरे दिन दूसरी जगह खोदें, फिर चार दिन बंद रखें, फिर कहीं खोदें। वह कुआं कभी बनेगा नहीं। वह बनेगा नहीं। जलालुद्दीन रूमी एक दिन अपने विद्यार्थियों को लेकर जो ध्यान सीख रहे थे, सूफी फकीर था, एक खेत में गया। और उन विद्यार्थियों से कहा, जरा खेत को गौर से देखो! वहां आठ बड़े-बड़े गड्ढे थे। उन विद्यार्थियों ने कहा, पूरा खेत खराब हो गया। यह मामला क्या है? रूमी ने कहा, खेत के मालिक से पूछो। उस मालिक ने कहा कि मैं कुआं खोद रहा हूं। पर उन्होंने कहा कि तुमने आठ गड्ढे खोदे, अगर तुम एक ही जगह इतनी ताकत लगा देते आठ गड्ढों की, तो न मालूम कितने गहरे कुएं में पहुंच जाते। तुम यह कर क्या रहे हो?

उसने कहा कि कभी काम पिछड़ जाता है, बंद हो जाता है। फिर मैं सोचता हूं, पता नहीं उस जगह पानी हो या न। फिर दूसरी जगह शुरू करता हूं। वहां भी नहीं मिलता, फिर तीसरी जगह शुरू करता हूं, फिर चौथी जगह। आठ गड्ढे तो खोद चुका, लेकिन कुआं अब तक नहीं खुदा है।

रूमी ने कहा कि देखो, तुम भी अपने ध्यान में कुआं खोदते वक्त खयाल रखना। यह किसान बड़ा कीमती है। तुम भी ऐसी भूल मत कर लेना। इसने ज्यादा नुकसान नहीं उठाया, केवल खेत खराब हुआ। तुम ज्यादा नुकसान उठा सकते हो, पूरा जीवन खराब हो सकता है।

अक्सर ऐसा होता है, अक्सर ऐसा होता है, आप में से कई ने न मालूम कितनी बार ध्यान शुरू किया होगा, फिर छोड़ दिया। फिर शुरू करेंगे, फिर छोड़ देंगे। नहीं; कम से कम तीन महीना बिलकुल सतत। और तीन महीना क्यों कहता हूं? क्या इसलिए कि तीन महीनों में सब कुछ हो जाएगा?

जरूरी नहीं है! लेकिन एक बात पक्की है कि तीन महीने में इतना रस जरूर आ जाएगा कि फिर एक भी दिन बंद करना असंभव है। तीन महीने में हो भी सकती है घटना। नहीं होगी, ऐसा भी नहीं कहता हूं। तीन दिन में भी हो सकती है, तीन घंटों में भी, तीन क्षण में भी हो सकती है। आप पर निर्भर करता है कि कितनी प्रगाढ़ता से आपने छलांग मारी। लेकिन तीन महीना इसलिए कहता हूं कि मनुष्य के मन की कोई भी गहरी पकड़ बनने के लिए तीन महीना जरूरी सीमा है।
आपको शायद पता न हो, अगर आप नये घर में रहने जाएं तो कम से कम तीन सप्ताह लगते हैं आपको इस बात को भूलने में कि वह नया घर है। वैज्ञानिक बहुत प्रयोग किए हैं, तब वे कहते हैं कि इक्कीस दिन कम से कम लग जाते हैं, पुरानी चीज बनाने में नई चीज को। नये मकान में आप सोते हैं पहले दिन तो नींद ठीक से नहीं आती। वैज्ञानिक कहते हैं कि नींद की नार्मल स्थिति लौटने में कम से कम इक्कीस दिन, तीन सप्ताह लग जाते हैं।

जब एक मकान बदलने में तीन सप्ताह लग जाते हों, तो चित्त बदलने में तीन महीने को बहुत ज्यादा तो नहीं कहिएगा न! तीन महीने बहुत ज्यादा नहीं हैं। बहुत थोड़ी सी बात है। तीन महीने सतत, इसका संकल्प लेकर जाएं कि तीन महीने सतत करेंगे। नहीं लेकिन बड़ा मजा है! कोई कहता है कि नहीं, आज थोड़ा जरूरी काम आ गया। कोई कहता है, आज किसी मित्र को छोड़ने एयरपोर्ट जाना है। कोई कहता है, आज स्टेशन जाना है। कोई कहता है, आज मुकदमा आ गया। लेकिन न तो आप खाना छोड़ते हैं, न आप नींद छोड़ते हैं, न आप अखबार पढ़ना छोड़ते हैं, न आप सिनेमा देखना छोड़ते हैं, न सिगरेट पीना छोड़ते हैं। जब छोड़ना होता है तो सबसे पहले ध्यान छोड़ते हैं, तो बड़ी हैरानी होती है। क्योंकि और भी चीजें छोड़ने हैं आपके पास। और भी चीजें छोड़ने की हैं, उनमें से कभी नहीं छोड़ते। तो ऐसा लगता है कि जिंदगी में यह ध्यान और परमात्मा, हमारी जो फेहरिस्त है जिंदगी की, उसमें आखिरी आइटम है। जब भी जरूरत पड़ती है, पहले इस बेकार को अलग कर देते हैं, बाकी सब को जारी रहने देते हैं।

नहीं; ध्यान केवल उन्हीं का सफल होगा, जिनकी जिंदगी की फेहरिस्त पर ध्यान नंबर एक बन जाता है। अन्यथा सफल नहीं हो सकता है। सब छोड़ दें, ध्यान मत छोड़ें। एक दिन खाना न खाएं, चलेगा; थोड़ा लाभ ही होगा, नुकसान नहीं होगा। क्योंकि चिकित्सक कहते हैं कि सप्ताह में एक दिन खाना न खाएं तो लाभ होगा। एक दिन दो घंटे न सोएं तो बहुत फर्क नहीं पड़ेगा। कब्र में सोने के लिए बहुत घंटे मिलने वाले हैं।

Even if you have to give up a meal, do it...but do not give up Meditation


 Even if you have to give up a meal, do it...but do not give up meditation. The more regular you are, the greater depth you will attain. Meditation is such a delicate thing that it takes months to grow but just a day or two to wither away. A delicate thing needs much regularity, continuity. Meditation is the highest; everything else is secondary.

You will not miss much by missing a day’s sleep. One can do without sleeping for five to seven days. It is okay if you miss a meal; man can survive without food for three months. You can go without drinking water for a day; you will not die.

But usually, people give much more importance to such petty things and think that for a day or two they can do without the things that are really significant. But let it be remembered that nothing will go wrong if you do not fulfil the petty things of your routine. You will not gain anything by doing them; nor will you be a loser by not doing them.

But meditation is of the highest, and through it the divine is attained. If you do not meditate, you will not know what you were to gain and what you have missed; you will really not know what you have lost.

The greatest misfortune that can befall people is that they never come to know what they have missed. Apart from missing, people never come to know what they were to gain, they never become aware of it.

So always devote energy to meditation.

In Meditation, Silence Comes On Its Own Accord.

 

In meditation, silence comes on its own accord. You simply go on watching the mind without any control, without any repression, and silence comes suddenly just like a breeze, and with the silence, the fragrance of the flowers — that is your blissfulness; it is your own fragrance which you were not capable of knowing because there was so much noise. -Osho

With Meditation, Whatsoever is Attained Remains With You. -OSHO♥


 With meditation, whatsoever is attained remains with you. If you stop the technique you will not proceed further, but whatever you have attained will remain with you. It cannot be lost; a real growth can never be lost. It is not something added to you that you can lose. It is you who has grown. ~OSHO♥

A Meditator Is Naturally Slow -OSHO


"A meditator is naturally slow -- not because he is trying to be slow but just because there is nowhere to go. There is nothing to achieve, there is nothing to become, the becoming has ceased. When becoming ceases, being is. And being is slow, non-aggressive, unhurried. Then you can savor the taste of each moment with ...total presence, you can be present to the present; otherwise you are in such a hurry that it is impossible to have any look at that which is. Your eyes are focused on a faraway distant goal, a faraway distant star; you are looking there."

All Meditations Are Nothing But Efforts


All meditations are nothing but efforts
to bring you to the present.
When you live in the present moment,
with no past hanging around you,
with no future projection,
you are free from life and death,
you are free from body and mind.
You are free, simply free,
you are freedom.
