Оранжева книга: Техники за медитация
Osho's words on the discipline of meditation.
Meditation is an adventure, the greatest adventure the human mind can undertake. Meditation is just to be, not doing anything--no action, no thought, no emotion. You just are and it is a sheer delight. From where does this delight come when you are not doing anything? It comes from nowhere, or it comes from everywhere. It is uncaused, because existence is made of the stuff called joy!
Meditation is not an Indian method; it is not simply a technique. You cannot learn it. It is a a growth of your total living, out of your total living. Meditation is not something that can be added to you as you are. It cannot be added to you; it can only come to you through a basic transformation, a mutation. It is a flowering, a growth. Growth is always from the total' it is not an addition. Just like love, it cannot be added to you.
It grows out of you, out of your totality.
You must grow toward meditation.

About the author
Osho
4,382 books6,930 followersRajneesh (born Chandra Mohan Jain, 11 December 1931 – 19 January 1990) and latter rebranded as Osho was leader of the Rajneesh movement. During his lifetime he was viewed as a controversial new religious movement leader and mystic.
In the 1960s he traveled throughout India as a public speaker and was a vocal critic of socialism, Mahatma Gandhi, and Hindu religious orthodoxy.
Rajneesh emphasized the importance of meditation, mindfulness, love, celebration, courage, creativity and humor—qualities that he viewed as being suppressed by adherence to static belief systems, religious tradition and socialization.
In advocating a more open attitude to human sexuality he caused controversy in India during the late 1960s and became known as "the sex guru".
In 1970, Rajneesh spent time in Mumbai initiating followers known as "neo-sannyasins". During this period he expanded his spiritual teachings and commented extensively in discourses on the writings of religious traditions, mystics, and philosophers from around the world. In 1974 Rajneesh relocated to Pune, where an ashram was established and a variety of therapies, incorporating methods first developed by the Human Potential Movement, were offered to a growing Western following. By the late 1970s, the tension between the ruling Janata Party government of Morarji Desai and the movement led to a curbing of the ashram's development and a back taxes claim estimated at $5 million.
In 1981, the Rajneesh movement's efforts refocused on activities in the United States and Rajneesh relocated to a facility known as Rajneeshpuram in Wasco County, Oregon. Almost immediately the movement ran into conflict with county residents and the state government, and a succession of legal battles concerning the ashram's construction and continued development curtailed its success.
In 1985, in the wake of a series of serious crimes by his followers, including a mass food poisoning attack with Salmonella bacteria and an aborted assassination plot to murder U.S. Attorney Charles H. Turner, Rajneesh alleged that his personal secretary Ma Anand Sheela and her close supporters had been responsible. He was later deported from the United States in accordance with an Alford plea bargain.[
After his deportation, 21 countries denied him entry. He ultimately returned to India and a revived Pune ashram, where he died in 1990. Rajneesh's ashram, now known as OSHO International Meditation Resort and all associated intellectual property, is managed by the Zurich registered Osho International Foundation (formerly Rajneesh International Foundation). Rajneesh's teachings have had a notable impact on Western New Age thought, and their popularity has increased markedly since his death.

به فارسی نام این کتاب " کتاب نارنجی اوشو " است و خوشبختانه ترجمه شده و برای کسانی که به دنبال راهی برای رسیدن به ارامش درونی و شاید جویای بیداری روحشون اند بسیارمفید و عالیست. حتما با مطالعه ی کامل کتاب به مدیتیشن های گوناگونش که اگاه شدین سپس انتخاب کنید که کدوم مدیتیشن برای شما مفید تره و به شما فشار سختی وارد نمیکنه و با انجام دادنش احساس بدی ندارید و بلکه شاد تر و رها تر و اگاه تر میشین . مدیتیشنی مفید هست که وظیفه ای سخت و خسته کننده نشه و انجامش ساده باشه و در هر حالت و جایی بشه انجامش داد ، مگر نوع خاص که نیازمند امادگی هست مثل رقص سماع که شخصا از پسش بر نمیام و امادگی جسمیش رو ندارم و نداشتم . مدیتیشن مفید ذهن شمارو به مرور ارام تر و ساکت تر میکنه و اگر خود همون مدیتیشن دغدغه شد بدونید اشتباه دارید پیش میرید ! امیدوارم در این زمان که طلوع زمینی نو نزدیک هست همگان به دنبال آرامش و خود حقیقی شون باشن و موفق هم بشن. در پناه نور باشید ...

Mis comentarios sobre el Libro Naranja por Osho.
Este es un libro interesante para quienes estén interesados en comprender más sobre la filosofía y los pensamientos del autor Osho, inicialmente no sabía que podría esperar del libro, y en particular mi pregunta fue por qué lo recomiendan sus fans, y como Osho tiene tantos seguidores y así mismo tantas personas que lo detestan.
Al introducirme en la estructura del libro percibí que sigue un orden secuencial en un estilo de vida, iniciando por una rutina al despertar, la mañana, durante las actividades cotidianas, y a antes de dormir. El autor expone diversas recomendaciones de posibles prácticas meditativas, desde mi perspectiva me queda claro que el autor fue un explorador de todo las posibles formas de contemplar el estado meditativo, impulso que tantas personas como fuese posible vivieran una experiencia de salir del estado racional de la mente para introducirlos en estados de consciencia expandida, aunque muchos de sus métodos parecen muy controvertidos y escandalosos al seguir lo tradicional.
Para mí fue interesante entender como piensa el autor, y como sus fans lo idealizaron como un portador de luz y verdad, logró conducir de cierto modo un camino hacía el auto conocmiento por estas diversas técnicas, de modo que sin duda cualquier persona podría sentirse identificada con alguna de ellas y así ampliar sus prácticas meditativas, y expandir el gozo de estar sumergido en el excitante momento presente.
Imagino que muchos antes de conocer lo que es realmente meditar nos cuestionemos cómo puede ocurrir meditar mientras bailas, pintas, o haces una tarea cotidiana como tomar té, cantar, sonreir, haces el amor. etc. Sin duda todos estos conceptos para la mayoría nos serían escandalosos, inclusive podrían ser considerados extremos, sin embargo, lo que podría rescatar es que son posibles caminos hacia el mismo destino de quietud que ofrece el estado meditativo de la consciencia, y todos sus beneficios de introspección.
Cómo está estructurado el libro?
Introducción
El único camino
Amanecer: risa, movimiento y catarsis
Mãnana: celebración, trabajo y juego
Técnicas para la vida cotidiana
En la tarde: sentarse, mirar y escuchar
Noche: fantasía, oración y amor
Acerca de Osho
Glosario
Frases que me gustaron del libro.
Celebrando el Sol Naciente
“La meditación es sensibilidad total.
La meditación es tu derecho de nacimiento.
Está allí, esperando que te relajes un poco
para poder cantar, transformarse
en una danza.
La meditación es deleitarte en tu propia presencia.
La meditación es deleitarte
con tu propio ser.”
Una meditación para JET-SET
Sientate en silencia y aguarda
“Mis meditaciones tienen el propósito de
llevarte de regreso a tu niñez, cuando no
eras respetable, cuando podías hacer
cosas locas, cuando eras inocente,
incorrupto por la sociedad; cuando no
habías aprendido los trucos del mundo,
cuando eras de otro mundo, inocente.
Me gustaría que regresaras a ese punto;
desde allí, comienza de nuevo.”
“El pasado ha desaparecido, el futuro aún no aparece, sólo el presente es. Y nunca encontrarás en el presente algo que se asemeje al ego.”
No hay atajos
“Hay algo que debe recordar respecto a la meditación:
es un camino largo y no hay atajos.
Cualquier que diga que existen atajos te está engañando.
Es un viaje largo, porque el cambio es muy profundo
y se le alcanza después de muchas vidas, muchas
vidas de hábitos rutinarios…. pensando… deseando…
Y la estructura de la mente> debes tirarla mediante la
meditación. De hecho es casi imposible, pero sucede.
Un hombre convirtiéndose en un meditador: es la
responsabilidad más grande del mundo, no es fácil.
Esto no puede ser algo instantáneo.
La meditación no es una flor de estación que
aparece en un plazo de seis semanas.
Es un árbol muy, muy grande. necesita tiempo para
para extender sus raíces.“

Very handy- very helpful.
"Meditation is what Zen masters
have been saying: Sitting silently doing nothing, the spring comes and
the grass grows by itself. Remember, ‘by itself' – nothing is being
done. You are not pulling the grass upwards; the spring comes and
the grass grows by itself. That state – when you allow life to go on its
own way, when you don't want to direct it, when you don’t want to
give any control to it, when you are not manipulating, when you are
not enforcing any discipline on it – that state of pure undisciplined
spontaneity, is what meditation is."

The book represent different techniques of meditation. The author is showing some different view of the meditation like not doing anything just not thinking instead like we all hear you need to have proper body position and counting the inhales and etc. Some of the techniques that were pointed sounded interesting other were crazy enough just to skip reading them at all.

By far the single greatest book on meditation I have come across, one technique is all you need. This book contains hundreds of techniques to explore, based on your temperament.

Molte tecniche di meditazione, il solo che abbia veramente sperimentato è il metodo vipassana.
Lo scrittore ne parla all'inizio, alcune tecniche mi sembrano quasi surreali, non realizzabili.
Interessante le curiosità sul mondo indiano e sul buddhismo. Alcuni riferimenti alle vite precedenti e all'Aldilà.

This is my first book on meditation and I have to say... I didn't benefit from it. Normal people won't be able to do a lot of meditation techniques illustrated in the book.
The book doesn't explain the purpose of the techniques and that makes me wonder why would I have to practice them.

Нужно быть человеком без дела, чтоб выполнять все эти медитации, поэтому в этом плане книга была для меня менее полезной. Но в плане цитат и его высказываний книга эта находка для человека, ищущего истину.
