There is a confusing number of meditation techniques: Zen techniques, Tantra techniques, Yoga Techniques en Sufi techniques to name but a few. Yet no technique is meditation. It is merely an attempt te create a situation in which mediation can happen spontaneously. Meditation is not a doing. It is a happening, an allowing.
notes
With the exception of chapter 3, chapter 8 and the section on techniques these talks were earlier published as Dynamics of Meditation.
Chapter 3 originally appeared in Sannyas 3 No 1 January/February 1974 under the title Modern Man and His Neurosis.
Chapter 8 is an excerpt of a discourse The Occult Mysteries of Initation that originally appeared in the book I Am the Gate.
This is the only publication of this book under this title. All other publications and editions, both from Rajneesh Foundation and other publishers are under the title Meditation: The Art of Ecstasy.
