神秘玫瑰靜心 MYSTIC ROSE MEDITATION
神秘玫瑰是一個強烈的心靈淨化過程,它鼓勵並支持人們釋放內在長久壓抑的感覺。
「這個世界需要的是好好的清理心以及過去的壓抑。笑和淚可以做到兩者。淚水會帶走隱藏在你內在的痛苦,而笑聲會帶走所有阻礙你狂喜的東西。」-奧修
歡笑和哭泣是人的天賦本能,是生命能量的自然流動,也是人之所以為人的表徵--別的生物也有不同程度的意識和感覺,但他們並不會如人一般的以笑與淚來表達。 是笑與淚使生命更豐盛。一個活生生的人總是享受歡愉也悅納淚水;當高漲的能量藉由歡笑和哭泣宣洩後,他將可以重新恢復平衡,重拾清新的眼光和心情。
當人失去了歡笑與淚水,他失去了所有的表情,生命變得乾枯乏味,毫無樂趣可言。 或多或少,我們都了解這種死氣沈沈的滋味,都曾經犧牲自然的本性以符合外在的規範--在家庭中,在學校裡,或是在職場上。有太多的場合,我們必須隱藏真實的感受,戴上合宜的具,以便扮演他人期待的角色。
神秘玫瑰是神秘玫瑰是奧修著名的三個靜心治療團體之一。它是一個強烈而獨特的旅程,支持人們真實而深入的了解與表達自己。全程共計二十一天,每天三小時。用最初的七天來經驗「笑」--只是笑,沒有目的,沒有理由,也沒有技巧,有的只是隨順本性的笑。用接下來的天經驗「哭」--只是哭,不需要做任何別的事。最後的七天則進入寧靜--靜坐,覺知,和觀照;這是純粹的靜心。
神秘玫瑰是一個不使用語言的深度能量過程,它可以解開老舊卡住的能量,更新我們的生命活力,同時創造出靜心、放鬆和寧靜的空間。它是一個清晰而純淨的過程,我們可以在其中直接連結到自己的能量,時時刻刻與自己相逢。團體帶領者的任務是在整個過程中提供指引,鼓勵並回答疑問。所以參加者一方面是自己在進行這個過程,而同時又獲得團體能量及帶領者的支持。
神秘玫瑰的象徵就是如果一個人小心翼翼地照料與生俱來的種子,給它好的土壤,給它好的環境和適當的震動,走上了正確道路,種子就能開始成長,然後最的成長是以神秘的玫瑰為象徵——那時你的本性開花,所有的花瓣都打開,散發出美麗的芬芳。-奧修
這個靜心有三個部分,共二十一天,也能被分開單獨做。
一、有關笑的要領 真正的笑不是笑任何事情,它只是你內在的顯現,就像樹上的一朵花開了,它沒有理由、沒有理性的解釋,它是神秘的,所以用神秘的玫瑰作象徵。
共有七天。先用一些時間大聲叫“呀呼!”作為開始,然後就毫無原因的笑四十五分鐘,你或是坐著,或是躺著,有人發現躺著能幫助放鬆胃部的肌肉,並且讓能量更容易運動;有些人發現在身上蓋條被單,或者抓住他們自己的腿懸空能幫助他們將他們內在的突和格格笑的童真帶出來,著重點就是要找到你內在的笑,毫無理由的笑,所以你的眼睛通常是閉著的,不過,與你的朋友的眼光相接觸來點燃笑,那也很好。
讓你的身體微微轉動,帶著你內在的天真的孩子作遊戲,讓你自己盡情地笑。
有時,你或許會遇到障礙,它已存在了好幾個世紀,它阻礙你的笑,當這種情況發生,就大叫:“呀呼!”或者發出毫無意義的聲音,直到笑再次出現。
放開:在大笑階段結束時,完全靜靜地坐著,閉上眼睛,幾分鐘,身體不動,就像一座雕塑,在內在集中所有的能且。然後放開:完全放鬆你的身體,讓它倒下來,不出任何努力或者控制。當你感覺準備好了,再坐起來,靜靜地坐著,觀照十五分鐘。
二、有關哭的要領 一旦笑結束了,你將會發現自己充滿眼淚和痛苦,但那也將是一種偉大的如釋重負的現象,許多的痛苦和苦難將會消逝。如果你能擺脫這兩層,你就找到了你自己。
第二個星期,由輕輕地說一會兒,“呀呸”開始,只是讓你自己哭四十五分鐘,你或許需要使房間稍微暗些來幫助你進入你的悲傷,你可以坐著或躺著,閉上你的眼睛,深深地投入你所有的感情,那樣會使你哭。
讓你自己真正地、投入地哭,來淨化你的心並卸下你心靈的重負。感覺所有你被壓抑的傷害和苦難之閘門被衝破了——讓淚水氾濫。如果你哭了一會後感到障礙或感覺想瞌睡,就去發些無意義的聲音,動一下你的身體,或者再說幾次“呀呼”,眼淚會出來,只是不要阻止它們。
放開:每天在哭的階段結束時,靜靜地坐一會兒,然後進入放鬆狀態, 與你在大笑階段時做的一樣。
在哭的這一星期裏,向任何能帶來眼淚的情形打開,讓你自己變得易受傷害。
三、有關山上的觀看者的要領 第三個星期,靜靜地坐著,坐一段時間,你感覺會很舒服,然後輕輕地舞蹈,配上動人的音樂。
你可以坐在地板上,或者坐在椅子上,你的頭和背應該盡可能的直,閉上你的眼睛,自然的呼吸著。
放鬆,覺知,變得如同一個山上的觀看者,無論什麼經過,只是觀照,這個觀照的過程就是靜心,你看到什麼並不重要。記住,不要變得認同或者迷失在經過的事情中:思想、感情、身體的感覺、判斷。
靜坐以後,根據你自己的選擇,放些柔和的音樂,並舞蹈,讓身體找到它自己的動作,當你舞蹈時,繼續觀照,不要迷失在音樂中。
四、一些有益的關鍵點 在整個二十一天期間內,最好要避免其他宣洩性的靜心或課程(如:動態靜心或空達裏尼靜心,或像呼吸、情感的釋放、生物能的課程)。
如果你是與朋友們一起做神秘的玫瑰的靜心的話,那麼在靜心期間,不要互相講話。
許多人在笑的一周或哭的一周內,會遇到憤怒這一層面,沒有必要停留在其中,讓它通過發些無意義的聲音和身體的運動來表達,然後又轉到笑或哭。
慶祝你的笑,慶祝你的淚,慶祝你靜靜地觀照的時刻!
OSHO MYSTIC ROSE THERAPY
“I have invented many meditations, but perhaps this will be the most essential and fundamental one.” Osho
Laugh, Cry, and Let the Scars of the Past Be Dissolved in Silence
For 21 days, Laugh for 3 hours a day for 7 days, Cry for 3 hours a day for 7 days, and then Sit Silently, for 3 hours a day for 7 days. The course includes OSHO Dynamic Meditation for the 3rd week, and optionally for the first two weeks, and OSHO Kundalini Meditation and the OSHO Evening Meeting every day.
Whenever any experience is not fully lived in the moment, it leaves a residue inside us. It may be a small thing or something really significant but those residues or scars stay in the unconscious blocking our natural ability to flower to our full potential.
Whatever is left in the unconscious remains, waiting for an opportunity to be expressed, accepted, and resolved.
When we allow all our un-laughed laughter, our un-cried tears, and our un-lived silence to be experienced, we can allow whatever is in the unconscious to flow freely and be lived now – and be resolved forever.
The laughter, tears and silence do their work without the need for words, discussion, or analysis as is typical of conventional “therapy.” You just participate with totality and sincerity, and the rest happens by itself.
The OSHO Mystic Rose provides that opportunity.

Details of this 21-day course:
As Osho explains:
For seven days we laugh for no reason at all for three hours each day.
“The first part… for three hours, people simply laugh for no reason at all…. Digging for three hours you will be surprised how many layers of dust have gathered upon your being. It will cut them like a sword, in one blow. For seven days continuously, three hours every day… you cannot conceive how much transformation can come to your being.”
“When a man reaches into his innermost being he will find the first layer is of laughter and the second layer is of agony, tears.”
For the second seven days, we cry for no reason at all for three hours a day.
“So for seven days you have to allow yourself to weep, cry, for no reason at all - just the tears are ready to come.”
“The first part removes everything that hinders your laughter - all the inhibitions of past humanity, all the repressions. It cuts them away. It brings a new space within you, but still you have to go a few steps more to reach the temple of your being, because you have suppressed so much sadness, so much despair, so much anxiety, so many tears - they are all there, covering you and destroying your beauty, your grace, your joy.”
The third part is the time for the “Watcher on the Hill,” just watching whatever is happening inside or out.
“And my effort here is to take away all your scars and all your wounds and make you aware that you are just a watcher. A watcher cannot be wounded; no bullet can pass through it, no nuclear bomb can destroy it.”
“Just be a witness. Go on witnessing whatsoever passes in the mind, and the very process of witnessing has the whole secret in it.”
“Then you know that you are just the quality of reflection, that you are a pure consciousness, a witness, that you are a mirror and nothing else, that you are just a watcher, a watcher on the hill.”
“That is freedom. That’s what is called liberation, nirvana. And that man knows what benediction is!”

As Osho further explains:
“Laughter is a great medicine. It is a tremendously powerful therapy. If you can laugh at your own unconscious, the unconscious loses its force. In your very laughter your guilt, your wounds, disappear.”
“I am giving you a very fundamental technique, fresh and unused. And it is going to become worldwide, without any doubt, because its effects will show anybody that the person has become younger, the person has become more loving, the person has become graceful. The person has become more flexible, less fanatic; the person has become more joyful, more a celebrant.
“All that this world needs is a good cleansing of the heart of all the inhibitions of the past. Laughter and tears can do both. Tears will take out all the agony that is hidden inside you and laughter will take all that is preventing your ecstasy.”
“My own experience says to me that if you can laugh rightly, in the right moment, it will bring you out of unconsciousness into the open sky, from the darkness to the light. I am introducing laughter as a meditation because nothing makes you so total as laughter; nothing makes you stop your thinking as laughter does. Just for a moment you are no more a mind. Just for a moment you are no more in time. Just for a moment you have entered into another space where you are total and whole and healed.”
“This is absolutely my meditation.”
