It is impossible to understand Meditation because understanding it is a mind quality, you can only experience it, and once you get the taste of it, you will know it! And you will not be able to explain it to somebody else, unless you will use poetry. Understanding, contemplating, concentrating… are all mind qualities and none of them are Meditative. You cannot do Meditation, because also doing is belongs to the mind… So what is Meditation? …Meditation can happen when mind is no more present, hence all techniques are just preparation to  create a state of no mind, of not doing, in which a great silence, completely full of bliss and joy explode in your being, you feel a tremendous expansion in the body, in deep touch with everything is alive on the planet earth.

Osho has invented this technique to create a transcendence between the East and the West. The silent approach of the East misses the living world of the West, and the stressed approach of the West misses the silent of the East, and both are partial, Osho with the Active Meditation gave birth to a new man, a new era, by the transcendence of East and West! He calls this man “ZORBA the BUDDHA”.
