De(spre) meditatie, viata, moarte si- mai ales- constientizare cu Maneesha James in Bucuresti, 9-22 Martie@ Studio Experimental

                           "Vine un moment in care realizam ca raspunsul se afla in interior, in noi insine; ne dam seama ca pana nu ne cunoastem pe noi insine nu avem o baza, o fundatie solida de la care sa ne traim viata. Interesul meu deosebit in meditatie este meditatia in viata de zi cu zi. Daca meditatia nu are impact in viata ta, de ce ti-ai bate capul cu ea?"- Maneesha James 

Dragi prieteni,

Anul acesta Maneesha James  a revenit in Europa pentru a-si impartasi vasta si inspiranta experienta si munca de o viata, vocatia si experimentarea ei personala legata de meditatie, constientizare, cum ii putem sprijini cu compasiune pe cei dragi aflati pe moarte- sau pe noi insine-, cum putem trai constient, total si cu pasiune astfel ca atunci cand moartea vine, sa vina...dansand :)

In calatoria ei prin Europa a fost inclusa si Romania. Mai jos cateva momente petrecute alaturi de Maneesha in Bucuresti:

Intre 9-22 martie Maneesha a sustinut in Bucuresti 2 workshop-uri speciale, precedate fiecare de cate o seara introductiva de prezentare si experimentare:

• Everyday Enlightenment (Iluminarea de fiecare zi- un curs despre cum sa facem din fiecare moment o meditatie), 11-13 martie; seara introductiva a avut loc pe 9 martie, 19.00- 21.00 
• Supportying the Dying (un grup despre cum sa oferim sprijin altora si noua insine in procesul mortii), 18-20 martie; seara introductiva pe 16 martie, 19.00- 21.00 

De asemenea, pentru cei dornici, Maneesha a oferit sesiuni individuale in limita timpului disponibil. O sesiune individuala dureaza o ora.

Licentiata in psihoterapie si consiliere, hipnoterapie, facilitator meditatii, moasa, educatoare, Maneesha este mai mult decat aceste "titluri". Sunt putini cei pe care ii intalnim si ne lasa...atat de tacuti, uimiti, extaziati, umili si deschisi catre misterul din noi insine, catre misterul vietii, catre mister pur si simplu. Sunt putine fiinte in prezenta carora devenim subit fascinati de noi insine, atat de plini de "fiecare moment e nou, e altfel, viata se intampla in fiecare moment". Darul ei este de a transmite esenta meditatiei intr-un mod simplu, practic si pragmatic, astfel incat ORICINE poate macar gusta meditatia.

Maneesha ofera seminarii si workshop-uri pentru profesionisti din domeniul sanatatii si pentru publicul larg, atat pentru beneficiul lor personal cat si ca o resursa pe care sa o ofere clientilor, pacientilor si prietenilor. In plus, practica ei privata este centrata pe a sprijini clientii in criza lor de sanatate, pe drumul lor inapoi la sanatate - atat fizica cat si emotionala- sau in pregatirea lor pentru a muri constient si recunoscatori. Timp de 15 ani Maneesha a calatorit in toata lumea- vizitand Statele Unite, Marea Britanie, Scandinavia, Europa de Est, Turcia, Israel, Japonia, India, Noua Zeelanda si Australia- oferind seminarii, grupe si sesiuni individuale despre diverse aspecte ale meditatiei, ale unei vieti traite constient.

Ea insasi mediteaza de 36 de ani, a scris rubrici regulate despre meditatie pentru diferite publicatii si a acordat numeroase interviuri radio si tv. Maneesha a scris doua carti despre meditatie: "Una Vita Viva" si "My Peak Moments with Osho, The Unsurpassable Man". De asemenea, a creat numeroase cd-uri cu meditatii ghidate si un al doilea web site: www.activemeditation.com

Everyday Enlightenment, 11-13 martie

Cei mai multi dintre noi duc vieti atât de ocupate încât a găsi timp pentru a medita poate deveni pur si simplu încă o sursă de stress. În acest curs am explorat „meditatii la minut” – tehnici care nu necesită să punem deoparte vreun timp anume, ci care pot fi încorporate direct în orice facem, oriunde am fi. Abordarea  experientiala si pragmatică a furnizat instrumente care pot fi folosite imediat în viata noastra de zi cu zi. Am lucrat de asemenea la cum să găsim metode care ti potrivesc, cum să stii dacă sunt eficiente, si când să renunti la ele :)

Acest weekend a fost în mod egal relevant pentru noul venit si pentru meditatorul "experimentat", pentru oricine interesat de a gasi metode practice, utile si eficiente pentru imbunatatirea calitatii vietii.

Supportying the Dying, 18- 20 martie

Meditatorii au o resursă minunată care nu numai că ne ajută să trăim intr-un mod constient si cu totalitate, dar ne ajută de asemenea să murim constient si gratios, chiar cu recunostintă.

Acest weekend a fost folositor atât pentru cei care lucrează profesional cu muribunzii, cât si pentru cei care vor să stie cum să sprijine cel mai bine persoanele apropiate aflate pe moastre- rudă sau prieten drag (care poate că nu este un meditator, sau poate fi chiar refractar la meditatie). Am experimentat cu o serie de tehnici de meditatie care îl pot ajuta pe celălalt în diferite aspecte ale procesului mortii.

De exemplu: Cum să te raportezi la fricile cuiva?- inclusiv frica de a pierde controlul, frica de necunoscut; frica de a fi singur; de a fi în suferintă. Ce să faci în legătură cu regretele pentru viata pe care cineva o lasă în urmă? Cu treburile neterminate?...si multe altele.

"My interest is in living life really passionately and beautifully, really going for our dream so that when death comes along it can come dancing!"- Maneesha James

"Love is the most healing force in the world"

"Love is the most healing force in the world; nothing goes deeper than love. It heals not only the body, not only the mind, but also the soul. If one can love then all one´s wounds disappear. Then one becomes whole - and to be whole is to be holy.

Unless one is whole one is not holy. The physical health is a superficial phenomenon. It can happen through medicine, it can happen through science. But the innermost core of one´s being can be healed only through love. Those who know the secret of love know the greatest secret of life. Then there is no misery for them, no old age, no death. Of course the body will become old and the body will die, but love reveals to you the truth that you are not the body. You are pure consciousness, you have no birth, no death. And to live in that pure consciousness is to live in tune with life. Bliss is a by-product of living in tune with life." Osho

Dance as a total meditation@ Studio Experimental

Nataraj is dance as a total meditation. This technique has 3 stages, lasting a total of 65 minutes. Disappearing in the dance, then relaxing into silence and stillness is the route inside for this method.

Dance, giving it all you have got, is an easy and natural way to turn in.

"Let the dance flow in its own way. Don't force it. Rather, follow it: allow it to happen. It is not a doing but a happening. Remain in the mood of festivity. You are not doing something very serious. You're just playing, playing with your life energy, playing with your bioenergy, allowing it to move in its own way. Just like the wind blows and the river flows you are flowing and flowing. Feel it.

When the movement becomes ecstatic then it is a dance. When the movement is so total there is no ego, then it is a dance.

And you should know that dancing came into the world as a technique of meditation. The beginning dancing was not the dance, it was to achieve an ecstasy where the dancer was lost, only the dance remained- no ego, nobody manipulating, the body flowing spontaneously.

There is no need to find any other meditation. Dance itself becomes a meditation if the dancer is lost. The whole point is how to lose oneself. How you do that, or where, is irrelevant. Just lose yourself. A point comes where you are not and still things go on…as if you are possessed.

Dance is one of the most beautiful things that can happen to a man. So don’t think about meditation separately. Meditation is needed as something separate for people who don’t have any very deep creative energy; no direction for their energy to get so deeply involved that they can be lost.

But a dancer, a painter, a sculptor need not have any other meditation. All that they need is to make their dimension so deeply penetrating that a point of transcendence comes. And there is nothing like dancing…

[…] Make it a point to simply dance to God. So there is no need to be technical- because He is not an examiner. You will simply dance as a small child… as a prayer. Then dance will have a totally different quality to it. You will feel for the first time that you are taking steps that you have never taken before; that you are moving in dimensions which have never been known to you. Unfamiliar and unknown ground will be traversed.

By and by, as you will become more and more in tune with the unknown, all techniques will disappear. And without techniques, when dance is pure and simple, it is perfect.

Dance as if you are deep in love with the universe, as if you are dancing with your lover. Let God be your lover.”- Osho, The Orange Book

"Sway with the moon, look at the moon, feel full with the moon"- Osho on full moon :)

"The full-moon night has a very alchemical impact on the human consciousness. Buddha became enlightened on the full-moon night – not only that, he was born on the same full moon night, he became enlightened on the same full-moon night, he died on the same full moon.

His birthday, his death day, his enlightenment day, all fall on one day – the full-moon night… the same month, the same night. The full moon has tremendous importance, so just do one thing: you can remain available, that’s all. If it happens, good; if it doesn’t happen don’t feel worried about it.

Each full-moon night start waiting. It will be coming more and more and it will be staying more and more. And when it comes, don’t try to control it. Don’t try to be in that state a little longer; don’t bring desire in, because those are all disturbances and they poison the whole thing.

It is a door of the beyond. Just start waiting for it… waiting but with tremendous patience, with no hurry. Don’t try to drag it. It is beyond human control but one can manage to invite it in a very indirect way. Take a bath, sing a song, sit silently in the night – wait for it.  

Sway with the moon, look at the moon, feel full with the moon… feel the moon showering on you, dance a little, sit again, wait. Let the full-moon night become your particular night for meditation – it will be helpful.”

"The body is not the question – you are the question.
When I say shake, I mean your solidity, your rock-like being should shake to the very foundations so that it becomes liquid, fluid, melts, flows. And when the rock-like being becomes liquid, your body will follow. Then there is no shake, only shaking. Then nobody is doing it; it is simply happening. Then the doer is not.” Osho
