Osho Nataraj Meditation a part of the Heart & Soul Meditation (Online)

What is Osho Nataraj Meditation? The Nataraj Meditation is a free style dance meditation.

Why do we offer this meditation? (Don’t worry if you feel you can’t dance – this is free form, moving however your body wants to move to the music! No one will be watching or judging you.) Dance is an easy doorway to enter into meditation and has been used in many mystery schools. When the body is moving, thinking can more easily stop as the energy is now moving from the head to the body and from there into a space where the dancer disappears and only the dance remains.

How we do it?

There are three stages: 40 minutes of free form dance, 20 minutes of laying down, and 5 more minutes of dance – lasting a total of 65 minutes.

Osho often guided us into dance and celebration.  “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 – wit hem it is very basic. In India we call creation God’s Leela- God’s Play.  God has not created the world; it is his play.” In this dance with closed eyes as if your are 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.

The meditation is one hour, but a few minutes goes to getting acquainted with each other and then giving the  instructions.  Afterwards, let yourself come back into the daily life slowly and we are available for any questions and just to hang out.

As part of the Heart and Soul series, each Wednesday we will present a Meditation from the numerous meditation traditions Osho has given us.  We want to share and pass on as many of these as possible.  Often when Shanti (one of the meditation facilitators of The World of Meditation) would meet with Osho in a darshan, he would introduce to her a meditation technique, asking her to try it out.  Her love for experimenting with a variety of techniques continues even to this day.

Each session we will introduce the particular meditation presented.  Then we will all do the meditation.  There is always time before and after each meditation to ask questions and to just hang out with each other!
