Good morning friends
The new year has begun with a lot of celebrations. We, in India, have a lot of festivals, apart from the new year, in which to celebrate life, to celebrate the very fact that we are alive, to celebrate new beginnings in our lives ( as well as new beginnings on our planet earth )
Osho has always been in favour of celebrations, of music and dance and colours. He has said on several occasions, “ Be sincere, but don’t be serious. Be playful “ and perhaps that’s why most of his discourses ended with jokes, jokes guaranteed to fill the auditorium with a hearty, belly laugh ! Almost all his meditations have also incorporated dance as part of the meditation, with heavenly music which facilitates dance and this dance can liberate us from the worries and stresses and anxieties of modern life. At the Osho meditation resort, even death is celebrated with dance and music. But before that, we must learn to celebrate Life ! Only when we are filled with Joy and Love and Gratitude, can we truly celebrate Life and life’s innumerable gifts.
Hoping that you can find many occasions to celebrate life in the coming year,
Love,
Anjali
