A theologian and ascetic Franciscan monk for 20 years, Ojas had direct experience of meditation for the first time after doing Dynamic Meditation. Feeling his body, senses and life energy awakening he decided to drop everything to be with Osho. Osho guided Ojas into a journey from the mind to the heart. Ojas learnt from Osho how to stop thinking by activating the heart centre and living life more playfully.
Today our guest is Swami Deva Ojas. Before meeting Osho Ojas studied theology and lived for 20 years as an ascetic Franciscan monk.
Ojas took sannyas in 1977 and became a community member. In recent years Ojas has been working as publicist, tutor, coach and cousellor.
