Buddhafield

Afroz Buddhafield has been in constant growth since its inception in 1994. Its vibrant and bubbling energy provides a safe meditative environment for exploration and self-discovery.

Osho Afroz is located in Eresos, on the island of Lesvos, Greece. The land is surrounded by olive and oak trees, volcanic mountains, low hills and 3 km from the beach.

Deva Varidhi

Afroz Founder

“Varidhi first met Osho in 1985, in Crete, Greece. It was a unique moment, meant to change his life forever. And it did… 4 years later, in 1989, a friend invited Varidhi to Eresos, in the island of Lesvos. He fell in love with the area and decided to buy a piece of land. The remoteness, the mountain surrounded valley and the beautiful beach seemed the ideal ingredients for a wonderful retreat. Sometime later, another friend visited the place and asked Varidhi to host a meditation group, the OSHO Mystic Rose. Despite all the practical difficulties (no electricity, no communications, etc, Varidhi said YES. During that Mystic Rose, Varidhi had a dream. It was a huge fireball that fell from the sky and landed under an oak tree that is in the land. And so it all started…It was 1994. Afroz means the one who is giving light…and YES has been Varidhi’s favorite word. And his final ….” (by Mahendra)

OSHO Afroz land has countless spaces for relaxing in nature, meditating and playing. The 7-acre site features meditation halls, domes, a stream, chill-out areas, an outdoor kitchen and restaurant, an art space, and many hidden corners. Evening Meeting Meditation happens in the Buddha Grove, under our beloved oak tree, where daily meditations, classes and evening events are happening as well.
