How Therapies can heal
us: Every child is born beautiful but very rarely we see beauty in old people. Children are always fresh like a flower. Children never pretend and they never suppress anything. If they are angry then they express it. If they don’t like any thing then they don’t hide it. They are creative in their work and they do it because they enjoy it. They are not bothered with the outcome or what they will gain from it. Thus they enjoy each moment of their life. Even after hours of play they are fresh. they are always connected to their source, that is their inner most nature. On the other hand when ever we try to be someone else, whenever we pretend, when ever we suppress any thing we go away from our source of energy. Many of us have to do jobs which we don’t like. Every human being is born with a unique talent and one needs to pursue it other wise no amount of money is going to satisfy our heart. Creativity fills our heart with Joy. If we follow our natural instinct or talent then work becomes play and we enjoy doing it. In fact we enjoy it so much that we are not bothered with efficiency of work. Then we only grow in numbers but our spirit always remain childlike. The body is going to age but our spirits can stay young for ever. Only thing that we need to do is ‘Be Ourselves’. No matter how difficult the situation is, we need to be honest with ourselves. Ultimately we have to live with ourselves only. When we do any wrong act then our soul immediately intervenes but if we ignore that voice again and again, slowly that voice of our soul gets feeble and feeble and one day we cannot hear it. When ever we suppress anything, that feeling is stored in our body at a particular place. Suppose we become angry then we closed our fist and clench our teeth’s as in the society we cannot fight. So we suppress that anger. That anger will ultimately get stored in our body and over the period of time will lead to disease. It does not mean that we should hit other person when we are angry but we need to be more meditative. Meditation is the only solution. As one goes deep in meditation, slowly, slowly, feelings of jealousy, anger, hatred decreases. In short, the control of mind over us decreases and we become the master of our life for the first time. All meditative therapies like “Osho Mystic Rose”, “Osho No-Mind”, “Osho Born Again” are techniques to be in touch with our real nature. In these therapies all those hurtful feelings and emotions which we have suppressed in ourselves gets released and we feel very lighter. We become more younger and fresh. As these suppressed feelings are released, we get glimpses of our real nature and the joy which we used to feel as a child. Our spirit become alive like a child and the body looks more younger in numbers. But no therapy can gives us permanent change unless we co-operate with it. Because old patterns of life style and mind comes back again. So to stop falling to old patterns of life one needs to be more meditative. All therapies should be followed by Meditation. In fact those who really want to go deep into meditation then these therapies “Osho Mystic Rose”, “Osho No-Mind”, “Osho Born Again” are very wonderful devices. Because what ever the garbage our mind is carrying is thrown out in these meditative therapies and a deep silence is the next outcome of these therapies. This is one of the reason that Meditation is the essential part of these therapies. Osho has designed them very scientifically. First the catharsis of suppressed emotions is done which is followed by Meditation. Therapies like Reiki, Bach Flower Therapy, Aura-Soma, Pranic Healing etc are also wonderful in relieving disease and dealing with emotions. But at the same we should not become dependent on them and should change our life style that is causing the disease. One can learn these therapies and can even give healings to family members and friends. But healer should always stay away from feeling of Ego. Because then that Ego becomes their problem. One should enter into healing because one enjoys it. That should be the criteria for all of us. Work should not be a burden but fun. It should come spontaneously to us. When I give Reiki session to my friends then I really become centered in myself and feel good. People can use Reiki, Pranic Healing etc to go deep into themselves and to become existence's channel in curing others. But again these techniques like ‘Osho Mystic Rose’, ‘Osho No-Mind’, Reiki etc are just techniques and in the end we have to leave it. So no need to be attached to them. Gautam Buddha used to tell one story which I have read in Osho discourses. Five people used a Boat to cross the river. When they reached on the other end, they become very grateful to the Boat for the immense help. They decided that they should not leave this boat as an act of gratitude, so they carried that boat on their heads and moved to the villages. This is sheer stupidity. And we should not do it with therapies. We should see a glimpse through Therapies and go deep in meditation. And once we have gone very deep in to meditation then we should also not get stick to meditation. One day we have to leave meditation also. Therapy is a device to get rid of the poison in ourselves and to go deep into meditation. Meditation in turn is a device to go deep in ourselves. |
