One of the most powerful meditation techniques to date is Osho's dynamic meditations. They belong to the Indian teacher Osho Rajneesh, the creator of the new sannyas system.
Dynamic Meditation Purpose
Osho's dynamic meditations are aimed at cleansing the unconscious person from those limiters and repressed emotions that lurk in him. This rubbish has been accumulating since childhood, and if it is not cleaned out periodically, then it comes out in the form of one or another pathology, greatly interfering with life. Therefore, Osho meditations are a very good way to overcome all internal barriers and start living life to the fullest.
The duration of the dynamic meditation is one hour and consists of five consecutive parts. In principle, these Osho meditations can be done at home on your own, however, group practice gives a slightly stronger result.
But even if you meditate with someone, it is still only your own experience, so close your eyes and do not open them throughout the practice, so as not to be distracted by anyone. You can use a bandage specifically for this.
As for other conditions, thenIt is advisable to meditate on an empty stomach. It is also recommended to wear loose clothing that does not restrict movement for ease of practice.
Part One: Breathing
The first part of Osho's meditation lasts ten minutes. At this time, you need to breathe through the nose in a chaotic rhythm, concentrating on the exhalation. The body will take care of the inhalation. Air should penetrate as deep as possible into the lungs. In this case, the rate of breathing should be maximum. You need to breathe as fast as you can afford, but without neglecting the depth of the breath. Use all your resources to help release energy. You can move if it helps you speed up or deepen your breathing. Finally, you should feel the energy rising within you. At this moment, it is very important to realize it and put it under control, not letting it go out ahead of time.
Part Two: Catharsis
The second part of Osho's meditation also lasts ten minutes. At this moment, you must "explode" - throw out everything that is so eager to come out. Don't be afraid to look crazy, don't limit yourself. Do absolutely whatever you want: sing, shout, stomp, dance, squeal, sob, burst into laughter, etc. This is Osho's meditation technique - talking to the body in the language of emotions. It is very important here to be streamlined, not to set yourself internal barriers and not to fetter yourself. You just need to surrender to the flow of your energy, its flow and do everything that will naturally manifest itself. Most importantly - do not analyze!Critical activity of the mind at this moment is absolutely inappropriate.
Part three: xy
The third stage, like the first two, lasts ten minutes. During it, you need to continuously jump, continuously shouting out the syllable mantra "Hu". At the same time, the hands should be raised up, and the sounds should be as deep as possible.
When jumping, each time you need to completely lower yourself on the entire foot, while feeling how the sound penetrates into the sexual center of the body. Here, again, it is required to use all the resources of the body and soul, all the energy, give everything one hundred percent. Only then does the kundalini awaken. Osho's meditations work according to the principle of direct proportion. That is, you get an effect equivalent to the expended strength and energy.
Part Four: Stop
The fourth stage takes fifteen minutes. As soon as it starts, you need to stop. Freeze in the place and in the position in which she found you. The position of the body must not change, because otherwise the flow of energy will be disturbed. You can't even cough, etc. It's like in a children's game with a rough sea, in which you had to freeze, like a statue after the words "Sea figure, freeze." During these fifteen minutes, only one thing is required of you - to observe yourself. You can not be distracted by extraneous thoughts. Just be aware of yourself and watch.
Part Five: Dance
The final stage of meditation is dancing. But it should not be just a dance. At this moment, you should feel boundless joy and happiness and dance, manifestingthis joy in gratitude to the whole universe.
This is how Osho recommended doing this practice. The meditation techniques he describes are varied. There are about a hundred of them, but it was dynamic meditation that became the most popular among his followers. Now, having described the technique, below we will explain a little more the inner essence of this powerful transformation system.
What is dynamic meditation?
Firstly, as Osho himself said in his evening meditations, dynamic practice is a method of creating a situation in which deep meditation can take place due to the tension shown by a person. The principle of work is that if you strain your body and mind as much as possible, then you will have nothing left to do but relax. Normally this is difficult to do, which is why meditation is often so difficult. But if the whole being of a person is on edge, then he automatically falls into the desired meditative state.
This is the purpose of the first three parts of the meditation. They prepare a person, straining him at the level of the physical, etheric and astral bodies. Deep breathing leads to a restructuring of the physical body due to a sharp change in the mode of oxygen supply. This, in turn, inevitably leads to a change in the etheric body. That's what the first ten minutes of deep, rapid breathing are for.
About the first part
It should be both fast and deep, because at such a pace it plays the role of a hammer that knocks on the etheric body, awakening it andenergies dormant in it. Therefore, in the first step, you need to concentrate totally, surrender to it completely. Nothing but breath should exist for you. You yourself must become the breath.
About the second part
The second step begins when the energy within you begins to seethe. Usually ten minutes of the first stage is enough for this. Now a powerful energy whirlwind is spinning inside you, and your task is to let it go free along with your body. It should be able to do whatever it wants. In no case should there be obstacles for this on your part. No shame or embarrassment is strictly allowed. However, this is not just thoughtless antics. In fact, at this time you have to do important work - to communicate with your body. You need to feel it and let it express in the symbols of body movements what it wants to convey to you. Surrendering to the will of bodily impulses, it is necessary to be aware of it, to listen to it in its language. This is called dialogue with the body or cooperation with the body.
And do not forget that everything should happen at the highest possible level of return. Nothing in dynamic meditation happens half-heartedly. If you do not give yourself completely to the body, you will negate the entire effect of the practice. In a word, in the second stage you must become the body just as you were the breath in the first stage.
About the third part
The result of the second stage should be an involuntary state of the observer. This is catharsis. It does not need to be sought, on the contrary,you have to be completely identified with your body. But if you give your all one hundred percent, then the moment will inevitably come when you will feel that the body is something separate and independent. At this moment, the third stage of practice begins, when you need to start jumping and shouting out the syllable “Hu”. Osho borrowed it from Sufism. The essence of the third stage is that the energy now begins to move in a different direction. If before it was directed outward and downward, then in the third stage it begins to flow inward and upward. The shouted mantra provides this redirection, and therefore it is required to shout it constantly and with full force, hitting oneself inward with sound. As before, you need to merge with your action, that is, become a sound, as before you were the body and breath. It is necessary to reach a state of exhaustion, to the extreme point of tension, so that the next, fourth stage can happen, in which you are only required to freeze and watch.
About the fourth part
At this time, only your consciousness exists and nothing else. This state happens spontaneously, you do not need to try to achieve it. The main thing in the third part is not to lose it by a random movement or a thought that suddenly came to mind. The fourth stage is what dynamic meditation is done for in general. The previous three stages serve as preparatory steps for it. When it happens, everything must go.
Final Tips
I had a very high opinion of Osho's dynamic meditation. Feedback from his students andthose who continue this practice today also testify to its extraordinary effectiveness. In large cities, it is held regularly in specialized centers with a confluence of many people. But if there is no group of practitioners nearby, it is not scary: you can practice this technique on your own. As Osho advised, morning meditations are most effective. This fully applies to dynamic meditation. Therefore, for maximum effect, it is better to get up early.
