"(There are 112 basic techniques of meditation.) I have developed my own techniques other than the 112, because I saw that for the modern man there are a few problems which are not covered in those 112 techniques. They were written perhaps ten thousand years ago for a totally different kind of mankind, a different kind of culture, different kind of people. The modern man, the contemporary man, has some differences--over ten thousand years it is absolutely unavoidable." -OSHO
Dynamic Meditation

First Stage: Ten minutes of deep, fast breathing through the nose. Let the body be as relaxed as possible; then begin with deep, fast, chaotic breathing--as deep and as fast as possible. Go on breathing intensely for ten minutes. Don't stop; be total in it. If the body wants to move while you are breathing, let it; cooperate with it completely.

Second Stage: Ten minutes of catharsis, of total cooperation with any energy that breathing has created. Let the emphasis be on catharsis and total letting go. Just let whatever is happening happen: do not suppress anything. If you feel like weeping, weep; if you feel like dancing, dance. Laugh, shout, scream, jump, shake--whatever you feel to do, do it! Just be a witness to whatever is happening within you.

Third Stage: Ten minutes of shouting hoo-hoo-hoo. Raise your arms above your head and jump up and down as you continue to shout hoo-hoo. As you jump, land hard on the soles of your feet so that the sound is forced deep into the sex center. Exhaust yourself completely.

Fourth Stage: Fifteen minutes of stopping dead, as you are. Freeze! Whatever position you are in, stop completely.

Fifth Stage: Fifteen minutes of dancing, of celebration, of thanksgiving for the deep bliss you have experienced.
 

Kundalini Meditation

First Stage:(15 minutes): Be loose and let your whole body shake, feeling the energies moving up from your feet. Let go everywhere and become the shaking. Your eyes may be opened or closed.

Second stage(15 minutes): Dance...any way you feel, and let the whole body move as it wishes.

Third stage(15 minutes): Close your eyes and be still, sitting or standing...witnessing whatever is happening inside and out.

Fourth stage(15 minutes): Keeping your eyes closed, lie down and be still.
 

Natraj Meditation

Let the dance flow in its own way; don't force it. Rather, follow it; allow it to happen. It is not a doing but a happening. Remain in the mood of festivity. You are not doing something very serious; you are just playing, playing with your life-energy, playing with your bio-energy, allowing it to move in its own way. Just like the wind blows and the river flows--you are flowing and blowing. Feel it.

And be playful. Remember this word 'playful' always--with me, it is very basic. In this country we call creation God's leela--God's play. God has not created the world; it is his play.

First stage: (40 minutes) With eyes closed dance as if possessed. Let your unconscious take over completely. Do not control your movements or be a witness to what is happening. Just be totally in the dance.

Second stage: (20 minutes) Keeping your eyes closed, lie down immediately. Be silent and still.

Third stage: (5 minutes) Dance in celebration and enjoy.
 

Nadabramha Meditation

Nadabrahma is an old Tibetan technique which was originally done in the early hours of the morning. It can be done at any time of the day, alone or with others, but have an empty stomach and remain inactive for at least 15 minutes afterwards. The meditation lasts an hour, and there are three stages.

First stage:(30 minutes) Sit in a relaxed position with eyes closed and lips together. Start humming, loudly enough to be heard by others and create a vibration throughout your body. You can visualize a hollow tube or an empty vessel, filled only with the vibrations of the humming. A point will come when the humming continues by itself and you become the listener. There is no special breathing and you can alter the pitch or move your body smoothly and slowly if you feel it.

Second stage:(15 minutes) The second stage is divided into two 7½ minute sections. For the first half, move the hands, palms up, in an outward circular motion. Starting at the navel, both hands move forwards and then divide to make two large circles mirroring each other left and right. The movement should be so slow that at times there will appear to be no movement at all. Feel that you are giving energy outwards to the universe.

After 7½ minutes turn the hands, palms down, and start moving them in the opposite direction. Now the hands will come together towards the navel and divide outwards to the sides of the body. Feel that you are taking energy in. As in the first stage, don't inhibit any soft, slow movements of the rest of your body.

Third stage:(15 minutes) Sit or lie absolutely quiet and still

Vipassana Meditation

First stage: (Sitting 45 minutes) Find a reasonably comfortable and alert position to sit for 45 to 60 minutes. Back and head should be straight, eyes closed and breathing normal. Stay as still as possible, only changing position if it is really necessary.
While sitting, the primary object is to be watching the rise and fall of the belly, slightly above the navel, caused by breathing in and out. It is not a concentration technique, so while watching the breath, many other things will take your attention away. Nothing is a distraction in Vipassana, so when something else comes up, stop watching the breath, pay attention to whatever is happening until it's possible to go back to your breath. This may include thoughts, feelings, judgments, body sensations, impressions from the outside world, etc.
It is the process of watching that is significant, not so much what you are watching, so remember not to become identified with whatever comes up; questions or problems may just be seen as mysteries to be enjoyed!


Second stage: (Vipassana walk 15 minutes) After 45 minutes there is a gong. You can either remain sitting or start the Vipassana walk. This is a slow, ordinary walk based on the awareness of the feet touching the ground. You can walk in a circle or a line of 10 to 15 steps going back and forth, inside or out of doors. Eyes should be lowered on the ground four steps ahead. While walking, the attention should go to the contact of each foot as it touches the ground. If other things arise, stop paying attention to the feet, notice what else took your attention and then return to the feet.
It is the same technique as in sitting-but watching a different primary object. You can walk for 15 to 30 minutes.
 

Gourisankar Meditation

This is technique consists of four stages of 15 minutes each. The first two stages prepare the meditator for the spontaneous Latihan of the third stage. Osho has said that if the breathing is done correctly in the first stage the carbon dioxide formed in the bloodstream will make you feel as high as Gourishankar (Mt. Everest)


First stage: (15 minutes)Sit with closed eyes. Inhale deeply through the nose, filling the lungs. Hold the breath for as long as possible, then exhale gently through the mouth and keep the lungs empty for as long as possible. Continue this breathing cycle throughout the first stage.

Second stage: (15 minutes)Return to normal breathing and with a gentle gaze look at a candle flame or a flashing blue light. Keep your body still.

Third stage: (15 minutes)With closed eyes, stand up and let your body be loose and receptive. The subtle energies will be felt to move the body outside your normal control. Allow this Latihan to happen. Don't you do the moving: let moving happen, gently and gracefully.

Fourth stage: (15 minutes)Lie down with closed eyes, silent and still.

The first three stages should be accompanied by a steady rhythmic beat, preferably combined with soothing background music. The beat should be seven times the normal heartbeat and, if possible, the flashing light should be a synchronized strobe.

Devavani Meditation

Devavani is the Devine Voice that moves and speaks through the meditator, who becomes an empty vessel, a channel. This meditation is a Latihan of the tongue.It relaxes the conscious mind so deeply that, when done last thing at night, it is sure to be followed by a profound sleep.
There are four stages of 15 minutes each. Keep your eyes closed throughout.

First stage: (15 minutes) Sit quietly, preferably with gentle music playing.

Second stage: (15 minutes) Start making nonsense sounds, for example "la…la…la," and continue until unfamiliar word-like sounds arise. These sounds need to come from the unfamiliar part of the brain used as a child, before words were learned. Allow a gentle conversational intonation; do not cry or shout, laugh or scream.

Third stage: (15 minutes) Stand up and continue to speak, allowing your body to move softly in harmony with the sounds. If your body is relaxed the subtle energies will create a Latihan outside your control.

Fourth stage: (15 minutes) Lie down and be silent and still

No Dimensions Meditation

First stage (30 minutes) Gurdjieff sacred movements exercise.

Second stage (15 minutes) Sufi whirling.

Third stage (15 minutes) Lie down on the belly and be still.
