Meditation

Meditation, as said by Osho Radjneesh, a great mystic of the last century, is an art of inner ecstasy.


There isn't much more to be added. The main difficulty in meditation, as reported by people who have experience, is that it's our natural state, but we took so much effort to forget about it, that it is very difficult for us to acknowledge. We developed so many bad habits: worry, longing, non-satisfaction and constant desire. We still remember that there are such things as happiness and peace, but we forgot how to get there and think, that if we make another effort, we'll reach this happiness, not being able to understand, that the very effort takes us away from it.


I suggest you doing a little thought experiment: imagine yourself being a drop of water inside a cosmic station. There is no gravitation there, and it has a natural shape of a ball. Now, if there are any tensions inside the ball, its shape will change, become less harmonious. It's obvious, that in order for it to come back to its original shape, it needs to free itself from all the tensions, and after a while it will become a perfect ball again. But the drop doesn't understand it, it thinks that if there will be a little stronger tension, if it tries harder, it will come back to the round shape. And, of course, every effort just takes it further away from the goal.


This is the situation we are in. Imagine now, that there is such a perfect guy, who managed to become so round, that one can't tell, if this roundness is natural, or artificial. The problem is that the real ball can be a ball for however long it wants, when for the artificial one it takes so much effort, and as soon as they stop trying, they become something totally weird. Perhaps you have met some people, who look like nice balls, but one little push is enough to make them look as a bunch of sausages.


I used to try to look ball-shaped - it's not worth it. I had to stop, perhaps some sausage-looking qualities are still there, it's usually easier to see from outside. But I have some experience of watching those qualities in me, and that's already something.


I have a master, he lives in California, and I don't doubt his natural roundness. If you want to know more - visit his web site: www.umisatsang.org
