What does upasana mean?

Upasana is the art of sitting near the divine with an open heart, inviting it through silence and stillness, allowing it to arrive in its own time.

— Osho
According to Osho, upasana means sitting near—dwelling in the presence of the master, of beauty, truth, the auspicious—and passively waiting with an open heart. It is actionless action: you don’t force the divine; you prepare, like arranging for sleepsilence, stillness, receptivity—and invite it. No special place is required; simply sit quietly, loosen thought, become empty, and let the divine arrive by itself.

Sit quietly with an open heart, like waiting for sleep, and let the divine come to you instead of trying to grab it.
