Thanks to their compassion, the enlightened masters down the ages have simplified the journey for the seekers by indicating clear milestones on the path.

Seven bodies, seven chakras, seven valleys of Sufis, seven stages of Akshya Upanishad – there exist several maps to help us on the path of meditation.

With guidance from Osho, we explore some of these maps in this five-days meditation retreat. 

Listening to Osho, meditating, celebrating and keeping the heart open – we never know doors can open at any moment to reveal the divine inside each one of us.  

"The ultimate truth is not far away, it is not distant. It is near you, close, closer than you are to yourself "

- Osho, Vedanta: Seven Steps to Samadhi

Osho emphasized the connection between meditation and nature, particularly in the mountains. He noted that the vastness of the mountains resonates with the experience of meditation, saying, "Whenever I saw the peaks, I felt the mountains were me." This reflects the idea that meditation allows one to transcend individual identity and connect with the larger universe.

"The Himalayas are the highest peaks in the world, and they are symbolic of the highest peak of consciousness. To be in the Himalayas is to be in the presence of the divine."

- Osho

Guru Purnima is a tradition that pays tribute to all spiritual and academic Gurus—enlightened beings who are willing to impart their wisdom to seekers. This festival is celebrated by Hindus, Jains, and Buddhists in India, Nepal, and Bhutan. It is a time to honour one's selected spiritual teachers or leaders. The observance takes place on the full moon day (Purnima) in the Hindu month of Ashadha (June–July) as designated in the Hindu calendar.

“Guru is like full moon and disciple is like Ashadh (the month of clouds and rains). The moon of Sharad Purnima is beautiful because it is in the empty sky. There is no disciple then, the Guru is alone. If the same beauty happens in Ashadh, then it is something, where the Guru is surrounded by clouds like disciples.

The disciples have come with their darkness of many lives. They are like dark clouds, they are the weather of Ashadh. If the Guru can shine like the full moon in that atmosphere of darkness, if he can produce light in that atmosphere of darkness, only then he is the guru. That’s why Ashadh Purnima is Guru Purnima. It has an indication towards the guru and an indication towards the disciple. And naturally, where these two meet, there is meaningfulness.”
