Core Insight:
According to Osho, most meditation methods fail today because they presume a mind ready for silence, while the modern mind is burdened by centuries of repression—of desires, thoughts, and instincts. Traditional silent techniques suit other types and ages. Contemporary seekers first need catharsis—an active, expressive purge (as in Dynamic Meditation)—to release the pent-up madness; only then can authentic silence and centering arise.
