What is meditation?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Meditation is the art of witnessing the mind without identification, leading you to the profound stillness where your true nature is revealed."
According to Osho, meditation is a state of no-mind: pure, contentless awareness in which the traffic of thoughts, desires, and memories falls silent. It arises by disidentifying from the mind and simply witnessing it, realizing 'I am not the mind.' In this inner stillness truth and one's real nature are known. Brief tastings deepen with practice, becoming a natural, childlike innocence regained—a way of life.
Meditation means getting so quiet inside that you just watch without thinking, like a calm child, and then you feel who you really are.
