A 21-day course for modern meditators
 
It can be difficult for the hyperactive 21st century mind to relax into an experience of silence and awareness. Recognizing this, the revered mystic Osho developed new meditation techniques to address the challenges of the modern mind. A Course in Meditation demonstrates these techniques in an easy-to-navigate format. Each day, learn a new aspect of meditative living followed by a simple, practical meditation and awareness practice. After each experience, reflect on the accompanying quote of the day, or use the provided space to take notes. Throughout the course, Osho imparts his unique insights on love, anger, relaxation, and more to guide you toward a space of inner acceptance, joy and mindfulness.
 
A Course in Meditation shows how we can reclaim the meditative nature that we each come in to the world with, but lose over time as we are initiated into the ways of society. From beginners eager to find stillness to more experienced meditators who wish to elevate their practice, Osho’s guide to meditation can teach everyone to separate themselves from their minds for a transformation of consciousness that brings a new understanding of what it means to be alert and responsive to whatever life brings.
 
“Without meditation you do not know the secrets of life, you know only the surface of life.”

A beautiful collection of mindfulness exercises for grounding, relaxation, and finding inner peace, from legendary spiritual guru Osho

All of us have experienced moments of “coming home”–feeling relaxed, grounded, free of the restlessness that characterizes so much of our everyday lives. These moments can arise in nature or in the depths of an activity we enjoy, alone or together with people we love. They show us that we are exactly where we are supposed to be.

The meditations in Coming Home to Yourself were selected from Osho’s hundreds of public talks and intimate conversations. These passages are designed to be a companion on the journey toward transforming our rare moments of “at-home-ness” into an undercurrent that permeates all aspects of our lives. They offer guidance about meditation and specific techniques to try, insights into the habits that keep us tense and conflicted, and what life might look like if we recognize those habits and let them go. Exercises include activating your awareness, opening the heart, learning to relax and concentrate in order to reap the benefits of meditation, and freeing the brain from mental blocks.
    
Coming Home to Yourself invites the listener to dip into the meditations at any point or read the book in sequence for a true homecoming experience.

A fresh, modern re-imagining of the essential Osho meditation text

For decades Meditation: The First and Last Freedom has been the essential guide to meditation and Osho meditation techniques. Developed specifically for a contemporary audience, this foundational guide shows that meditation need not be a specific “spiritual discipline” that is set apart from the real world. Rather, in essence, it is simply the art of becoming aware of what is going on inside and around us and developing the capacity to respond creatively to whatever comes our way. As we acquire the knack, meditation can be our companion wherever we are–at work, at play, at rest.

This newly revised edition includes:

– New meditations for daily practice, including many that can be seamlessly integrated into the activities of everyday life.
– Updated presentations of the classic Osho Active Meditations, gathered together in one program for the first time.
– Detailed instructions for each method, many with links to online tutorials
– Vital active physical meditations such as the Osho Dynamic Meditation and Osho Kundalini Meditation.
– Meditation techniques suitable for children.

Whether you are an experienced meditator, a beginner, or just curious about meditation’s benefits, an introvert or extrovert, an intellectual or emotional type, this comprehensive guide offers a method uniquely suited to you, and the support you need to experiment with it.

When mind knows, we call it knowledge.
When heart knows, we call it love.
And when being knows, we call it meditation.

– Osho
