Encyclopedia > Active Meditation

Active Meditation is the generic term for a number of meditation techniques created by Osho. This article is about the spiritual teacher formerly known as Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh. ...


All Active Meditation techniques involve a beginning stage of activity – sometimes intensely physical – followed by a period of silence. Specially composed music is available to accompany the meditations.


Osho often said that meditation is a science and does not need any belief. Speaking on some meditation techniques, he gave an analogy that the Theory of Relativity does not become Jewish just because it was conceived by a Jew[1].


Contrary to general belief, Osho says meditation is not concentration. Concentration is an act, a willed act. Meditation is a state of no will, a state of inaction. It is relaxation.
