A Whisper in the Woods: Quiet Escapes in a Noisy World was birthed from Martin Wiles' numerous treks with his two children and his middle brother in mountainous areas on the eastern coast of the United States.

Osho responds here to a question relating to meditation, a space of "no-mind": "...meditation covers a very long pilgrimage. When I say 'meditation is witnessing', it is the beginning of meditation. And when I say 'meditation is no-mind', it is the completion of the pilgrimage. Witnessing is the beginning, and no-mind is the fulfillment. Witnessing is the method to reach the no-mind. Naturally you will feel witnessing is easier. It is close to you. But witnessing is only like seeds, and then is the long waiting period."

Collana: Sulla via della trasformazione “La prima nascita ci è data dai genitori. Non è una nascita, è un semplice rivestire un corpo nuovo.

Quindi non sentitevi soddisfatti finché non siete giunti, dentro di voi, a questa seconda nascita. Fino ad allora nessuna energia dovrebbe rimanere assopita dentro di voi.

Ci si avvicina allo Zen perché è sempre più evidente che il rischio di rimanere rinchiusi in un seme – oin un bocciolo – risulta più doloroso del rischio di sbocciare. Ed è lo Spirito del tempo, con il generale crollo delle abituali certezze, a spingere verso un’esperienza che apra a una comprensione di séindubitabile. E lo Zen aleggia tra noi come un vento che accarezza e al tempo stesso scuote, sollecitando un risveglio che è di fatto una liberazione: la libertà da se stessi.

Continua il processo di “addestramento della mente” – e del cuore – delineato da Atisha. In questa terza sezione, vengono suggerite alcune strategie che rafforzano la capacità di governare la mente, per non subirne gli abituali meccanismi, con inevitabili effetti collaterali. Per esempio, si potrebbero cercare lussi e comodità fasulle che comportano dolori, affanni e afflizione. E Osho chiarisce: “L’umanità ricerca il piacere, ma continua a trovare miseria e in felicità, perché cerca all’esterno; laddove è reale solo ciò che è dentro di noi, qualcosa che la morte non può portarsi via”.

“La nostra esperienza è circoscritta dentro limiti. In realtà non comprendiamo l’invisibile, l’illimitato, conosciamo soltanto la parola ‘limite’; vi aggiungiamo il termine ‘senza’ e abbiamo la sensazione che non vi siano limiti. Ma allorché inizi a percepire ciò che è sconfinato, ne rimarrai terrorizzato; dunque, per quanto tu possa visualizzare, il confine resterà. Ti spingi sempre più in là – ma ovunque ti fermi, comparirà un confine.

Nei testi è possibile trovare spunti esperienziali e intuizioni che facilitano la nascita di un diverso processo di comprensione, qualcosa che parte da se stessi e dal proprio bisogno di significato e di una vita degna di essere vissuta.
