What to expect
"I love the statement that the '
man of Zen walks in Zen and sits in Zen' for the simple reason that meditation cannot be just a part of your life. You cannot make a fragment of your life meditative; it is not possible to be meditative for one hour and then non-meditative for twenty-three hours. It is absolutely impossible. If you are doing that, that means your meditation is false."
"Meditation can either be a twenty-four-hour affair or it cannot be at all. It is like breathing: you cannot breathe for one hour and then put it aside for twenty-three hours, otherwise you will be dead. You have to go on breathing. Even while you are asleep you have to go on breathing. Even in a deep coma you have to go on breathing. Meditation is the breath of your soul. Just as breathing is the life of the body, meditation is the life of the soul."
In 16 chapters in which he responds to questions of his audience, Osho leads us into an understanding that meditation must become something so deep in us that wherever we go it remains, abides with us; whatever we do, it is always there.
