OSHO Meditation Inc. is presented as a treasury of 144 distinct meditation techniques intended to transform the quality of your work and life. The page you provided does not include any step-by-step practice; it simply indicates the scope and purpose of the collection. Think of it as a pragmatic bridge between inner awareness and everyday activity.
In the wider Osho tradition, many methods invite you to bring presence into ordinary moments—aligning with Tantra’s spirit of turning life itself into practice. Because no specific technique is detailed on the page, the guidance below offers a clear orientation for engaging these practices responsibly and effectively once you have the full instructions from the book or an authorized source.
Phase Instructions
First Stage: Locate the Exact Technique
Obtain the source material (the book OSHO Meditation Inc. or an authorized edition). From the 144 techniques, choose one that resonates with your current need (e.g., clarity at work, stress relief, creativity). Read the chosen technique completely—twice—before beginning. Note its total time, stages, postures, environment requirements, and any cautions. Do not add or remove steps; practice it as written in the source.
Second Stage: Prepare the Field
Create the conditions the chosen technique requires: a safe space for movement (if active) or a quiet corner (if silent). Set a clear intention in one short line, such as: “Bring ease and awareness into my workday.” Silence notifications and ensure you will not be interrupted for the full duration. If the technique involves vigorous movement or breath, practice on an empty or light stomach and ensure adequate ventilation.
Third Stage: Practice Precisely as Written
Follow the technique’s sequence and timing exactly as provided in the source. If it asks for fast movement, be total in movement while remaining a witness inside. If it calls for sound, let sound arise fully without strain. If it instructs natural breath, do not manipulate it. If visualization is given, keep the image light and vivid without forcing. Place attention (e.g., at the navel, heart, or between the eyebrows) only if the technique specifies it. Let feelings and sensations be present; notice them without suppression or indulgence.
Fourth Stage: Rest, Absorb, and Close
When the active components end, allow the body to become still as indicated by the technique. Keep eyes open or closed according to the instructions you selected. Feel the afterglow in the body, the ebb of breath, the hum of silence. Let the practice complete itself; do not rush to stand or talk. Close the session exactly as the source directs (e.g., by sitting quietly, lying down, or a gentle bow).
Fifth Stage: Integration into Work and Life
Carry a thin thread of awareness into action. As you type, feel your fingers on the keys; between emails, feel one full exhale; during conversations, sense your feet on the floor. Notice reactivity arising; soften the belly and release unnecessary tension on the out-breath. Let small, frequent micro-pauses reconnect you to the taste of the practice. In the evening, jot three lines: what shifted, what resisted, what supports tomorrow.
Sixth Stage: Rhythm and Safety
Stay with one technique daily for at least 7 days before switching, unless the source advises otherwise. If pain, dizziness, or emotional overwhelm occurs, stop gently, rest, and choose a softer method next time. If you have medical or mental health conditions, consult a qualified professional and select only techniques appropriate to your situation. Consistency and care deepen the transformation these methods are designed to bring into work and life.

What Osho Said About This Technique
In 1969 followers of the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi invited Osho to talk to them. This was the first occasion on which Osho addressed a western audience, and the first time he talked publicly at length in English. The discourse has been published in OTI January 1 & 16, 1991; and February 1, 1991. Osho: Really, there can be no method as far as meditation is concerned. Meditation is not a method. Through technique, through method, you cannot go beyond mind. When you leave all methods, all techniques, you transcend mind. So meditation itself is not a method. Truth cannot be achieved through method. Method is our own invention. We, who are ignorant, have achieved knowledge through methods constructed, created, projected, in our ignorance. Through method you can achieve a sort of self-hypnosis, a sort of auto-hypnosis. Any method, whatsoever it's name, can only give you an illusory kind of peace.Read the full discourse →
Question: BELOVED OSHO, YOU HAVE BEEN USING THE KEY WORD "DEPROGRAMMING" TO DESCRIBE YOUR WORK. THE TECHNIQUES THAT YOU HAVE SUGGESTED DURING THESE YEARS, GO FROM CHAOTIC AND DYNAMIC MEDITATION TO THE MODERN THERAPEUTIC SCHOOL. I WOULD LIKE YOU TO EXPLAIN IN BRIEF WHY YOU HAD TO CREATE NEW MEDITATION TECHNIQUES LIKE KUNDALINI MEDITATION OR DYNAMIC MEDITATION, EVEN THOUGH THERE IS A TRADITION ALREADY INCLUDING HUNDREDS OF TECHNIQUES FROM YOGA, SUFISM, BUDDHISM ETC. WHAT IS ALSO SURPRISING TO THE WEST IS THAT YOU ARE USING THERAPIES SUCH AS GESTALT, PRIMAL, ENCOUNTER, IN YOUR COMMUNE. IS IT REALLY NECESSARY? THE SUSPICION IS THAT YOUR SECRET INTENTIONS ARE NOTHING BUT TO BRAINWASH PEOPLE'S MINDS, AND THAT CANNOT BE TOLERATED BECAUSE YOU ARE TOUCHING THE MOST PRECIOUS THING THEY HAVE. The ancient methods of meditation were all developed in the East. They never considered the Western man, the Western man was excluded.Read the full discourse →
I told him one day, "You do one thing. When somebody is moving away, ask him, `Why are you going? Keep standing here a little more!' Because we have to finish it completely. If you start saying that, then that man will never stand there again." He followed the advice, and soon, within fifteen days' time, we cleaned away the whole crowd; nobody was standing there. And he was really grateful to me. Whenever I used to pass the railway station -- years later, when I started traveling around the country -- he used to always come with a packet of sweets or something to present to me. I said, "Why do you unnecessarily take this trouble, coming two miles to the station?" He said, "You have helped me so much. Since that day I am finished with fear, I am finished with my father. Now I can forgive him.Read the full discourse →
We are to stand and let the waters settle on their own, why all the active meditations?
If you can sit, there is no need for meditations. In Japan, for meditation they have the word "zazen". It means just sitting, doing nothing. If you can sit, not doing anything, this is the ultimate in meditations. There is no need for any other thing. But can you sit? There is the crux of the whole problem. Can you sit? Can you just sit doing nothing? If that is possible -- just sit, do nothing -- everything settles by itself, everything simply flows by itself. You are not needed to do anything. But the problem is -- can you sit? It happened on a small hillock near a village, a man was standing. Just it was morning and the sun has arisen, and three persons had gone just for a morning walk and they looked at the man. And, as minds go, they started talking about what this man…Read the full discourse →
SECOND STAGE Now we have to enter the second stage. Continue deep breathing, and let go of the body. Leave the body to do what it wishes to do. Let go of it. Let it take whatever asanas or postures it wants to take; let it form whatever mudras or gestures it likes. Leave it free to move and shake and whirl as it likes. If it wants to weep let it. Let go of the body completely. Continue deep breathing and let go of the body. Let the body fall down if it wants to fall down. And let it rise again if it wants to rise. And if it wants to dance allow it wholly. Let go of the body absolutely. Let it do whatever it wants to do. Leave it free. Don't impede it even in the least. Cooperate with the body. If it spins, let it.Read the full discourse →
