Details
Osho compares human existence to an onion, layers upon layers, fresher still fresher, "…and the same is true about the man. If you go deep into him you will always find the innocent child. And to contact that innocent child is therapeutic." This seven-day meditation group offers that contact.
The method is twofold: play and witness. The first hour is a "yes" to spontaneous play; with pillows, balloons, and crayons; with others and with ourselves; our body, our thoughts, our emotions; full energy, full of fun. The next hour is the other polarity. We sit silent, still; watching the layers dissolve.
As in life, so in play. We all have set patterns of what it means to play and we remain confined to those; fearful of entering any new territory, revolving in the same circle. As a part of the group, each day we will be experimenting with fresh ways to play, those that challenge our patterns and DE-mechanise us.
We will also be experimenting with other meditation techniques that support this process and lighten us up. Anchoring the group will be Osho's commentaries on the Bhagavad Gita. All this to help us peel the layers, DE-mechanising our little self so we may recognize the infinite, ever fresh universal Self. That recognition is to be Born Again.
