"When relaxation and wakefulness meet, meditation happens; trust this beginning and simply remain awake as a witness."
According to Osho, practice effortless alertness: drop worry, relax the body-mind, and simply remain awake as a witness. When relaxation and wakefulness meet, meditation happens; this very flavor is already 'one-third enlightenment.' Trust this beginning—stop striving, watch breath and sensations, and let awareness deepen naturally, without tension.
Let your body soften, stop worrying, and quietly watch what’s happening inside—calm and awake together.
