The Forgotten Language of talking to the Body/ Mind Meditation
This guided meditation is a process of being reminded of a language most of us have forgotten. It’s the language of communicating with your own body.
The meditation, narrated by Ma Deva Anando, lasts one hour and should be done for seven days preferable early morning. It is done in silence, sitting or lying down. You first reconnect with your body/mind, making friends with it, and then start a healing process by communicating with your unconscious. Of this meditative therapy Osho points out that it can be used for weight control, for dealing with migraines and any other body aches and pains or for anything in the body which is out of natural balance.
It is about making friends with yourself, with your body and also with your mind. You will become aware of how your mind, its thoughts and feelings, express themselves through your body. Pain, diseases, addictions (eating too much, alcohol, sugar, etc..) will be dealt with and can be healed. It is a chance to mobilize your self-healing energies and to relax deeply within yourself.
“…you are more than the body and there is no need to have any attachment. But love is not an attachment, compassion is not an attachment. Love and compassion are absolutely needed for your body and its nourishment. And the better body you have, the more is the possibility for growing consciousness. It is an organic unity.”
Quotes by Osho from Om Shantih Shantih Shantih, Ch 27, Q 1
Or,
The process
One hour a day for seven days, this process of self-hypnosis with love and awareness will relax and help you to become friends with your body. Stress and unhealthy habits will melt away as you learn to connect with your unconscious mind. The result: a healthy life full of happiness and well-being!
"The body is the visible soul, and the soul is the invisible body. The body and soul are not divided anywhere, they are parts of each other, they are parts of one whole. You have to accept the body, you have to love the body, you have to respect the body, you have to be grateful to your body. Only then will you attain to a certain kind of integrity, a crystallization will happen. The body is the most complex mechanism in existence. It is simply marvelous! - and blessed are those who marvel. Begin the feeling of wonder with your own body, because that is the closest to you."
The Dhammapada: The Way of the Buddha, Osho
