Dynamic
Meditation of OSHO
What
is it?
Dynamic meditation is a contradiction.
The dynamic means effort, much effort, absolute effort. And
meditation means silence, no effort, no activity. You can
call it a dialectical meditation. Be so active that the whole
energy becomes a movement, no energy is left static in you.
The whole energy has been called forth, nothing is left behind.
All the frozen parts of energy are melting, flowing. You are
not a frozen thing now; you have become dynamic. You are not
like substance now; you are more like energy. You are not
material; you have become electrical. Bring total energy to
work, to be active, moving.
When everything is moving and you have
become a cyclone, then become alert. Remember, be mindful
-- and in this cyclone suddenly you will find a center which
is absolutely silent. This is the center of the cyclone. This
is you -- you in your divinity, you as a god.
All around you is activity. Your body has become an active
cyclone -- everything moving fast, faster. All the frozen
parts have melted, you are flowing. You have become a volcano,
fire, electricity. But just in the center, amidst all this
movement, there is a non-moving point, the still point.
This still point is not to be created.
It is there! You are not to do anything about it. It has always
been there. It is your very being, the very ground of your
being. This is what Hindus have been calling the ATMA, the
soul. It is there, but unless your body, unless your material
existence, becomes totally active, you will not be aware of
it. With total activity the totally inactive becomes apparent.
The activity gives you a contrast. It becomes the blackboard,
and on the blackboard is the white dot.
Technique
The
New Morning Meditation -- Dynamic Meditation
Three steps are to be followed. They
should be followed as vigorously as possible. One has to put
everything at stake, totally -- nothing less will do. The
first step is fast breathing. Breathe as fast as possible,
because we are using breathing as a hammer. It is to be a
hammering inside for the coiled energy to be uncoiled. So
use it as a hammer for the inner serpent, to awaken it. So
do not withhold; give in completely. For ten minutes I will
go on encouraging you to make any effort possible. Whatsoever
you can do, do it at your peak, your climax.
In the second step you have to be in
a catharsis. Dance, jump, cry, laugh -- whatsoever happens
to you, but do something. Movement is necessary -- whatsoever
is inside must be thrown outside. This catharsis leads to
a purity, to a very deep cleansing.
In the third step you have to use "hoo!"
So go on crying, "hoo! hoo! hoo!" -- this oo is
to be used as a hammer. This mantra, "hoo," goes
deep down to the MULADHAR, to the sex center, and hammers
the energy to rise upwards.
After thirty minutes, the fourth step
-- we will be lying, just as if dead, and waiting for the
divine to descend. Make a space around you so you can be just
totally mad. Make space around you. Don't be in a group, don't
be in a crowd -- just spread out. Now close your eyes with
the blindfold.
Make space. Look around and see, because you will be jumping
and dancing and going completely mad.
Now we should begin. Close your eyes.
[Note:This spectacular meditation method
was Osho's trademark and remains a tremendously effective
tool for naturally expanding consciousness. Osho never did
the technique himself because he didn't need to. He developed
the method simply by observing disciples, who would occasionally
go into spontaneous body movements during his early meditation
camps.]
