The Tantra Meditation Retreat held in Osho Nisarga in India, near Dharmsala, happened in the last week of October, culminating in my birthday celebration on the 28th. In this seven days group we practiced 26 methods from the Vigyan Bhairav Tantra. To do these methods in the part of the world where they were first developed is a great blessing. We feel the power and the beauty of the Himalayan Mountains nourishing our meditation practice. The group was a gathering of 56 wonderful people from all over the world. Some of the sessions were accompanied by live music, lifting us into ecstasy.
Some of the sutras, (spiritual aphorisms) were on playfulness, and we had a carnival to celebrate this. Other sutras offered an opportunity to enter into communion with nature, so we went on a couple of early morning treks, to forest and river. The many and varied meditation methods helped participants to discover a whole rainbow of ways in which to experience the awakening of expanded consciousness and heightened sensitivity. Overall, this retreat offered an opportunity to expand into our vast potential, as creative, loving, aware and blissful beings. As the saying goes, ‘one picture is worth a thousand words.’
