This is an opportunity for you to enjoy four days in silence; away from your usual busy life and to explore your inner world.
Osho created the Zazen retreat and the simple structure that supports it, around the
same time that he gave us the guidance for OSHO Vipassana.
The meaning of the word ’Zazen’: ’Za’ means sitting doing nothing.
And ’Zen’ means: in that sitting when you are not doing anything you fall upon yourself, you encounter yourself, you see yourself. The word ’zazen’ is beautiful. ’Sitting and looking into yourself’ – that is the meaning of it.
If you already love Vipassana you will be intrigued how the fundamentals of these two methods are the same, and yet the small differences, give a very different experience.
In Zazen you will keep your eyes lowered and unfocused, with your gaze resting just in front of you. Relaxing into your own being.
Each 25 minute session is followed by an awareness walk – “one mind walking”
Osho’s active meditations are a support for this silent group.
