OSHO Kundalini Meditation
-- This is the much-loved sunset sister meditation of the Dynamic Meditation done at sunrise.
It consists of four stages of 15 minutes each.
If you are doing the Kundalini Meditation, then allow the shaking, don’t do it. Stand silently, feel it coming and when your body starts a little trembling, help it but don’t do it. Enjoy it, feel blissful about it, allow it, receive it, welcome it, but don’t will it.
If you force it will become an exercise, a bodily physical exercise. Then the shaking will be there but just on the surface, it will not penetrate you. You will remain solid, stone-like, rock-like within; you will remain the manipulator, the doer, and the body will just be following. The body is not the question – you are the question.
When I say shake I mean your solidity, your rock-like being should shaketo the very foundations so that it becomes liquid, fluid, melts, flows. And when the rock-like being becomes liquid, your body will follow. Then there is no shake, only shaking. Then nobody is doing it, it is simply happening. Then the doer is not.
The Chaotic Meditation, or the Kundalini, or the Nadabrahma, these are not really meditations. You are just getting in tune. It is like ... if you have seen Indian classical musicians playing. For half an hour, or sometimes even more, they simply go on fixing their instruments. They will move their knobs, they will make the strings tight or loose, and the drum player will go on checking his drum – whether it is perfect or not. For half an hour they go on doing this. This is not music, this is just preparation.Kundalini is not really meditation. It is just preparation. You are preparing your instrument. When it is ready, then you stand in silence, then meditation starts. Then you are utterly there. You have woken yourself up by jumping, by dancing, by breathing, by shouting – these are all devices to make you a little more alert than you ordinarily are. Once you are alert, then the waiting.
Waiting is meditation. Waiting with full awareness. And then it comes, it descends on you, it surrounds you, it plays around you, it dances around you, it cleanses you, it purifies you, it transforms you.
