Why Meditation Camp ?
"This meditation camp, is nothing but to persuade you towards the formless - how not to be in the form. Every form means the ego: even a rooster has its ego, and man has his own. Every form is centered in the ego. The formless means egolessness; then you are not centered in the ego, then your center is everywhere or nowhere. This is possible, this which looks almost impossible is possible,because this has happened to me. And when I speak, I speak through experience.
Wherever you are, I was, and wherever I am, you can be. Look at me as deeply as possible and feel me as deeply as possible, because I am your future, I am your possibility ." OSHO
Meditation Camp is of 3 day duration(or more)to introduce you to meditation techniques that osho has given to this world.
After attending a camp one has to continue a techniques which suits his body and mind at home to move deep inside.
"It is not only for today or tomorrow: there cannot be a meditation camp where in three days the thing happens and the matter is finished. Irreligiousness is a disease that pervades life, so the meditaion camp will also have to go on for your whole life. There is no way out, it will have to be practiced throughout your whole life."

Osho Says :
About Sannyas
"Sannyas is not in opposition to the world; sannyas is a purification of the world. If you start becoming pure within the world, one day you will find that you have become a sannyasin. To be a sannyasin is not a change of clothing. that you change your clothes and you become a sannyasin Sannyas is the transformation, the development of your total being. Sannyas is a growth. It is a slow, very slow development. "
About Mala & Robe
"So sannyas means living moment to moment with no commitments of the past.
If I give you a mala and if I give you a robe, this is only for your remembrance, that now you have not to decide. It is only to make you remember that you are not the old. When this awareness becomes so deep that you do not need to remember it, then throw the robe, then throw the mala. If it comes to you to throw it, do not make it a decision, do not make it a commitment to me. If it comes to you, then throw them, but not unless the awareness has become so deep that even in sleep you know that you are a sannyasin."
About New Name
"I give you a new name and a new robe just to create the distance. But you can make it part of your dreaming; then you will miss the whole point. You can still think in terms of the old – that the old man, A, has taken sannyas. You feel, "I have taken sannyas. " "I" remain the old. "I" have changed my robe, my name, but "I" remain the old and the old continues. Now this sannyas is just something added to the old. It is not discontinuous, it is continuous. If it is continuous, if you have taken sannyas, you the old one, if you have changed your robe and name, you have missed the point.
You must be dead, you must not be the old now. You must feel that the old has died, that this is a new entity which you never knew, that this is not a growth out of the old. This is discontinuous with the old. Then the device will have helped. Then the alarm will have worked and the technique is useful. You are not missing the point. All these techniques are such that you can miss or you can use them; it depends. But remember well, the techniques are just techniques. If you understand the spirit, you may become alert even without any technique." |
