[edit]Dynamic meditation is an active meditation technique which is meant to be done in the morning. Osho himself guided this technique in Hindi and English. It has five stages which includes fast and deep breathing, catharsis, and chanting the mantra “hoo” and of silence and dance.[1] It is an hour-long meditation where each stage is "demarcated" by a different music.[2] This meditation is designed to release suppressed emotions, trauma and stress from the "body and mind".[3] After the meditation, people claim to “feel lighter emotionally and energetically”.[4] Not just seasoned meditators, newcomers also feel “transformative” as they release their emotions through catharsis.[5] Dynamic meditation can be done either alone or in a group.
Osho Kundalini meditation is meant to be done during the sunset period. It has four stages which include body shaking, dancing, silent sitting and lying down. Body shaking is a way to release stress from the body.[6] Most of his techniques can be done either alone or in a group except meditation therapy techniques such Mystic Rose, No-Mind.
He has also talked about and revived various other meditation techniques from the tradition of Zen, Sufism, Tantra, Taoism, Jainism and Buddhism. 'The Book of Secrets', which is considered one of his best selling books, explains 112 meditation methods “originally presented in the ancient text, Vigyan Bhairav Tantra”.[7] Osho has given a different perspective on sex going beyond the usual either supression or indulgence view giving a fresh outlook on how to transform the sexual energy through meditation.[8]
Osho's Sannyas, which is called Neo-Sannyas, differs from the traditional Hindus Sannyas which is based on renunciation of the worldly life for seeking the truth. On the contrary, Neo-Sannyas is continuing the search for the truth while still living in the world. On 26 September, 1970, during a meditation retreat at Manali, India, Osho initiated his followers into this new order of Sannyas, “Calling them sannyasins or new-sannyasins”.[9]Later, during the initiation, he started to give a necklace with his picture on it. Sannyasins started to "wear orange robes" and that necklace.[10]
“Rajneesh’s ideal of new-sannyasins was an extreme departure” from the traditional concept of Sannyas.[11] Rather than escaping from day-to-day life and becoming an “ascetic”, the new-sannyasins would be actively participating in the world and be life affirmative.[12]
