Dynamic Meditation

1 The first step is ten minutes of chaotic breathing. 'Just chaotic breathing: breathing in and breathing out. Forget everything else but the breathing. Use breathing as a hammering and breathe so fast, so deep and so chaotically, that you become like a bellows: breathing in, breathing out. This will work miracles. It will help you to release your repressed emotions. Breathing has helped you to repress them, so only through breathing can they be released.
You may not be aware of it, but the more repressed you are, the shallower your breathing will be.
A repressed man or woman cannot take deep breaths. He is afraid. His breath cannot go deep down to his navel; it is shallow. He takes it in and throws it out. It never goes to the very roots of his being. He is afraid of the roots. He is afraid of being total, because if he is total then he will have to release his repressions. He will have to act differently; he will not be able to control himself. He will be thrown into the deep river of existence. Existence will control him; he will not be able to control existence. We control our breathing in an effort to be in control... These ten minutes of chaotic breathing will help your body energy to be released. Every cell of your body will become alive and dancing. And when these cells start dancing within, you will also have a feeling of dance yourself. Your whole body will start dancing and jumping. Allow it.This is how one enters into the river of existence..'

2 In the second step, for ten minutes you have to act out all your madnesses. Don't be shy, because here we have not gathered for that. Don't be afraid of others. Just think that you are alone here. This is a path of loneliness; one has to travel it alone. Many others will be doing the meditation, everyone will be doing it, but you are to be concerned only with yourself. If you are concerned with others you will not move an inch from where you are and your whole time here will be wasted. So don't be concerned with others. Remain absolutely concerned with yourself.
Remember you have much madness within you. You already know that; that's why you are so afraid. Release them! If you want to scream, scream. If you want to weep, weep. If you want to jump, jump. If you want to dance, dance. If you just want to be like a child - playing with your body, jumping, dancing, screaming - do it! Osho

3 In the third step, we will be using the sound "Hoo!" as a mantra. 'You have to say, "Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!" loudly, forcibly, bringing your total energy to it as if your whole life is at stake. For ten minutes you have to go on screaming, yelling, "Hoo! Hoo!..." What is this "Hoo" going to do? It is going to do two things. When you scream "Hoo!" your total breath is thrown out. The more loudly you scream, the better. Exhale with the sound so that your total breath is let out. This creates a space within you. In that space, sex energy can move upward. The "Hoo" is to help sex energy to move up. When you say "Hoo!" your sex center contracts, the breath goes out, and a space is created within you right near the sex center. In that space, in that emptiness, sex energy can move up... Your hands [are] raised toward the sky. This is just a preparation so that you can meet with the cosmos. You will be jumping so that your energy is active, you are in a vital state, and the meeting can happen. You must go at least one step of the way. Then, the divine can come. Only one step from you is enough. Osho

4 I will say, "Stop!" Then you have to stop completely, as you are. 'The moment you hear me, feel as if you are no more...as if you have become just a stone, a statue. Don't move, don't cry. No noise, no movement. Suddenly it is to be as if everyone has become dead. Even if you fall. If you are standing and your posture is such that you cannot remain that way, don't make any adjustments with your body; just let the body fall. But don't help it to fall. Don't make any adjustments; don't change your body in any way. It is very essential that this stopping be deeply understood, because you can deceive yourself. If your posture is awkward, if you feel it is troublesome, inconvenient, your mind can deceive you. Because I am not there to see it, you think that you can change your posture a little and be comfortable. Then, you have missed the point. Don't do anything. The moment I say, "Stop!" stop all movements. In this sudden stop, you will be thrown to the center... You will enter a new space within; something that is beyond you; you have never known it, and even a glimpse of it will fill you with bliss. For these ten minutes - in this stone-like, dead state - you will be really alive for the first time. Osho

5 Celebrate and rejoice with music and dance. 'Express your gratitude towards the whole. All your life energy is to be flowing, laughing, singing. Celebrate life - don't try to fight with it...After you have gone through a catharsis you need to dance, to sing; you need something to sing about! Catharsis is negative; you are just purifying yourself. When you are ready, purified, feel a deep gratitude. Sing and dance, and completely merge yourself in the dancing and singing. The moment the dancer has disappeared and only the dance remains, you have entered. The moment the singer has disappeared and only singing has remained, you have entered. Forget the dancer, the center of the ego.
Become the dance - That is the meditation.' Osho
