A beautiful evening meditation

"This is one of the more quiet of Osho's meditation techniques. In the first phase, each part being 15 min., you do a special breathing technique, where you retain the breath after both in and out breath, breathing in through the nose and out through the mouth and holding the breath as long as possible. In the second you gaze at a candle (or a special lamp with blue, stroposcobic light), kind of tratak, while the third phase is latihan, standing up and letting the body move freely in slow, organic movements.
In the fourth you lie down with closed eyes, leaving the everyday mind and its chatter behind and opening up for a meeting with deeper parts of yourself.
Gourishankar is the Indian name for Mt.Everest, and it's said, that if you do the breathing in the first phase optimally, you will be as high as this mountain (havn't experienced that I have to say, but still hoping that someday...).
This enhanced version has a videosegment helping the beginner to the best possible start (and of course instructions in the booklet)."
