Osho Meditative Therapies

Osho approach to Meditative Therapies is that it can never be the ultimate solution to human problems, but Therapies can be used as a tool to help prepare the ground for meditation. Meditation can easily flower when we have cleared the clutter and repressed emotions from Mind and made space for silence to Descend. Based on this understanding Osho has created a series of "meditative therapies" that give Seekers opportunity and space to dissolve their tensions and repressions that keep them from being able to sit silently and observe the mind that creates problems in the first place.

Osho Meditative Therapies are simple and effective. There is minimum Interaction among the participants during the Therapies, but the energy of the group helps each individual go more deeply into his or her own process.

Osho on Therapies - Therapy has to do something very great, but if it succeeds, that will mean the end of therapy too. And therapists should be proud of the phenomenon that they are not replacing any parasites, they are simply deprogramming humanity. Their work that of a cleaner who has cleaned the place and now his work is finished. There is no need. Humanity can be absolutely spiritually, psychologically healthy.

Osho on Art of Healing - Healing is one of the most delicate dimensions. And the delicacy consists in the healer not doing anything in it. The healer is not really a healer because he is not a doer. Healing happens through him. He has just to annihilate himself. To be a healer really means not to be. The less you are, the better healing will happen. The more you are, the more the passage is blocked.

God or the totality or whatsoever name you prefer, is the healer. The whole is the healer. The word 'healing' comes from the same root as from where the word 'whole' comes. Whole, health, healing, holy, all come from the same root. To be healed means to be joined with the whole. To he ill means to be disconnected with the whole. An ill person is one who has simply developed blocks between him and the whole, so something is disconnected.

The function of the healer is to reconnect it. But when I say the function of the healer is to reconnect it, I don't mean that the healer has to do something. The healer is just a function. The doer is God, the whole. So if you really want to become a healer you will have to completely commit suicide. You have to accept your emptiness. And that is going to become your work: to become more and more empty of yourself. So go on emptying yourself.
