This course explores Osho’s map of the seven Chakras and the subtle energies within.
This map serves as an alchemical tool to support self-realisation, liberating your energy and bringing more understanding to your life. Through this exploration, healing naturally happens.
We will begin by centering in the heart chakra, which will provide a loving and accepting foundation for this profound and transformative journey. We will then explore the other chakras, unraveling the specific patterns associated with personal and collective conditioning.
We will use various meditation techniques and exercises to leave the mind aside and move from the horizontal to the vertical, experiencing directly and subjectively the flavour and qualities of each chakra.
“One has to feel the chakras, not know about them. You have to feel; you have to send feelers inside yourself. Only when you feel your chakras, and your kundalini and its passage, is it helpful; otherwise, it is not helpful.” Osho
Why explore the chakras?
Because this understanding can help us to move from the horizontal to the vertical, from unconsciousness to consciousness towards natural presence.
“In a moment of meditation, you suddenly see that you can move in two directions – either horizontal or vertical. The vertical consists of silences, blissfulness, ecstasies; the horizontal consists of hands, work, the world.” Osho
To live horizontally – focussed outward – means to live in the world of competition, of achievement, a world where one desire after another fails to deliver more than momentary satisfaction.
To live in the vertical dimension is to live in the here and now, moving freely and spontaneously between the different levels of your being. Accepting yourself at every level brings you to wholeness and peace.
