Osho Mandala Meditation<\/p>\n

Osho – ” Mandala means circle. Every circle contains a center. The aim of this technique is to create a circle of energy so that centering results naturally. At the end, one is left in absolute stillness, absolute silence.” – Osho<\/p>\n

This powerful, cathartic technique creates a circle of energy that results in a natural centering.<\/p>\n

Steps:<\/p>\n

First stage: 15 minutes<\/p>\n

Music. With open eyes run on the spot, starting slowly and gradually, getting faster and faster. Bring your knees up as high as possible. Breathe deeply and evenly. Forget the mind and forget the body. Keep going.<\/p>\n

Second stage: 15 minutes<\/p>\n

Music. Sit with eyes closed and mouth open and close. Gently rotate your body from the waist, like a reed blowing in the wind. Feel the wind blowing you from your side to side, back and forth, around and around. This will bring your awakened energies to the navel center.<\/p>\n

Third stage: 15 minutes<\/p>\n

Music. Lie on your back, open your eyes and, with the head still, rotate them in a clockwise direction. Sweep them fully around in the sockets as if you are following the second hand of a vast clock, but as fast as possible. It is important that the mouth remains open and the jaw relaxed, with the breath soft and even. This will bring your centered energies to the third eye.<\/p>\n

Fourth stage: 15 minutes<\/p>\n

Silence. Close your eyes and be still.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[307,125,165],"tags":[313,19,2],"class_list":["post-1622","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-active-meditations-techniques","category-meditation","category-osho","tag-mandala","tag-meditation","tag-osho"],"yoast_head":"\nMandala Meditation - Guru Quote<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"" Mandala means circle.
