This two-part practice from Osho weaves the intimacy of death and the freshness of life into the natural hinge of night and morning. In the evening, you gently dissolve your sense of body and doer, allowing the meditation to become sleep without interruption. At dawn, before the eyes open, you invite life to surge back through the body, moving and swaying as vitality returns.
The method is simple yet radical: surrender into a felt dying at night, and be reborn to sensation and energy at first awakening. Practiced daily, its impact grows tangibly within a week—softening fear, ripening trust, and attuning you to the effortless rhythm of ending and beginning. Let the night stage empty you; let the morning stage fill you.
