a 6 minute excerpt of this video is on facebook here

the online video transcript:

Osho: "Close your eyes....

Good. Come closer....

Just wait a moment....

Good...

This is your new name, Ma Anand Dhyano. Anand means bliss, Dhyano means meditation.

The present is the only reality there is. The past is unreal because it is no more, and the future is unreal because it is not yet; only the present is real, which is a very tiny moment, now, a small phenomenon. It is crushed between these two unrealities. We go on loosing it.

Meditation helps us to be here and now. Meditation is the art of being here and now, the art of being in communion with reality, the art of getting out of the dead past and the unborn future. And the moment you are out of past and the future you are in tune with God, because God is reality. God is not a person, God simply means all that is. God is another name for the totality, for the whole.

And the door to God opens through the present. Now is the door of God. This is the only moment to enter. You cannot postpone it for tomorrow, because the tomorrow never comes. It is always now and it is always here. Wherever you are, you are always in the now and in the here. Medtation helps you to become more and more alert of this phenomenon.

And the day you are rooted in the present is the day of great benediction, of great blessing. Flowers start showering. The beyond descends in you. That is the meaning of meeting with God. It is not that you meet somebody, not that a very ancient, old man comes and meets you. But simply the meeting of the dewdrop with the ocean -- that's what God is all about. :God cannot be worshipped, because worship is a kind of desire. God can only be lived. And meditation is the way to live God, to live your life as divine.

How long you will be here?"

Dhyano: "5 weeks"

Osho: "That's good. Do as many groups as possible.

Good..."

[Anand Dhyano: bliss learned through meditation]

"Meditation prepares the way. Meditation helps us to unburden the unnecessary. Our minds are cluttered with the unnecessary: memories -- the past, desires -- the future. We are crushed between these two, the past and the future. The present is the only reality there is. The past is unreal because it is no more, and the future is unreal because it is not yet; only the present, now, which is a very tiny moment, a small phenomenon, is real. It is crushed between these two unrealities. We go on losing it
