Satsang: A Thousand Times This!
I am happy to announce the next Satsang streaming, May 7 – 9.
It is definitely a challenging process to manage a band in these socially-distanced these times, but also fun, creative, and connecting.
References to time and space don’t apply to Satsang. Thinking of meditation in terms such as “morning”, “evening”, “east”, “west”—or even seasonally such as Spring—isn’t relevant. What is important, though, is the format, and for this particular Satsang, we will again be enjoying the “evening” format as defined by Osho.
Most of us know it by different names—Osho White Robe Brotherhood, Evening Meeting, Evening Satsang with the Master. The stages are ten minutes of high-energy celebration, followed by ten minutes of silent sitting with soft music, and an Osho discourse. It will finish with a short Sannyas Celebration. This is a unique one-of-a-kind tribute to the Master, a joyous gathering of friends and meditators from around the world, and will be nothing less than a super celebration. What better way to refresh oneself, inside and out, while navigating the current world situation?
Satsang will be shared via Zoom four times over three days on the weekend of May 7 – 9, in different timezones so everyone who wants to has an opportunity to enjoy. Each streaming will feature a DIFFERENT discourse. The entire meditation, from start to finish, will be about one hour and thirty minutes long.
Please note the various links below when choosing a convenient date and time. Know that it is fine to join for more than one Satsang. In fact, last time there were quite a few adventurous souls who attended all four streamings. There were no gold stars given, but I did hear rumours of enlightenment. I didn’t hear from anyone directly, so I can’t confirm the rumors. I assume whoever they were stepped into the blue sky and left no footprints. So be advised!
The sugestion for Satsang in this format is to wear white as per Osho’s guidance. One can’t second guess the Master as to why he chose white for the meditation. I just know that it works in some mysterious way, making the meditation powerful and deeping the connection with each other.
Anyone wishing to take sannyas at the end, please contact me directly at oneskymusic@gmail.com, and we will celebrate your jump. I will be making more postings in the coming days as the meditation comes closer, so stay in tune for further updates. Onwards and upwards!
