Program Details
"Creativity is the quality that you bring to the activity you are doing. It is an attitude, an inner approach – how you look at things.
"So the first thing to be remembered: don't confine creativity to anything in particular. A man is creative – and if he is creative, whatsoever he does, even if he walks, you can see in his walking there is creativity. Even if he sits silently and does nothing, even non-doing will be a creative act. Buddha sitting under the Bodhi Tree doing nothing is the greatest creator the world has ever known. Once you understand it – that it is you, the person, who is creative or uncreative – then this problem disappears.
"Not everybody can be a painter – and there is no need also. If everybody is a painter the world will be very ugly; it will be difficult to live. And not everybody can be a dancer, and there is no need. But everybody can be creative.
"Whatsoever you do, if you do it joyfully, if you do it lovingly, if your act of doing it is not purely economical, then it is creative. If you have something growing out of it within you, if it gives you growth, it is spiritual, it is creative, it is divine."
- Osho, A Sudden Clash of Thunder. Chapter 4
Creativity: The Inward Revolution, is an immersive, residential meditation experience with the vision, guidance, and various meditative techniques of Osho. It is playful, fun, intense, and blends meditation and celebration. You bring your attention to not the outward manifestations, but on the inner transformation through meditation practices. Since this is about mysticism, you do not need any prior background in art, music, or design. What you take home at the end of the program, is what you will be practising every day: how can creativity become the meditative and inner quality of your being. Ah this!
