CHAPTER 13. KRISHNA GOES TO THE WEST universal word. Amin and aum are words that are not manmade; they have been heard in the depth of meditation. It is difficult to say which of the two, amin and aum, is the more authentic, but one thing is certain that they are one and the same. It is the ultimate sound. When all caused sounds disappear the uncaused aum comes into being. It is the cosmic sound. Zen sages ask their disciples to go and find out the sound of one hand clapping. The sound of one hand clapping is something unheard of! This is Zen’s own way of saying the same thing – the anahat, the unstruck sound. So Zen Masters direct seekers to go in search of one hand clapping – which really means the uncaused sound. Clapping with two hands make for sound, and one hand clapping is aum or amin. Knowingly I did not give aum a place in our meditations. It is deliberate, because if you utter aum it is caused by you, it cannot be the uncaused aum. I wait for that real aum which will appear when you completely disappear. This aum will arise from your inmost depths, but it will not be caused by you: And Krishna is right in saying that if one comes to know aum rightly and lives aum with awareness till his last breath, he will attain to the ultimate. But this is not the aum that you will utter with your mouth; it will be a waste of efforts if you keep chanting aum at the time of your death. Then you will not even die peacefully. The real aum is an explosion; it emerges from the depths of your innermost being. And it happens. Let us now sit for meditation. And I hope you will now begin your journey to the real aum. Don’t talk, and sit at some distance from one another. Stop talking altogether, and leave some space between you and the other persons sitting next to you... Those who are just spectators should leave the compound and watch, if they want to, from the outside. Spectators should not remain inside the enclosure. Please move out. I want you to sit at some distance from one another so that if someone falls down on the ground in the course of his meditation, he does not disturb his neighbors. There is enough space here, so you need not be miserly. Please spread out all over the place. Friends may fall down, and many are going to fall down, so make room for them. And don’t think others will move, other’s don’t move. Each one of you has to move and make room for others. Spectators are requested not to talk; they should remain completely silent so they don’t cause any disturbance in meditation. Before you begin please understand a few things rightly. You have to meditate in a sitting posture. This will be very useful and good. For the first ten minutes we will breathe deeply. After ten minutes deep breathing your body will begin to shake; then allow it to shake freely. Someone will feel like shouting and screaming, another will feel like crying, Allow yourself to yell and cry without inhibition. After ten minutes, begin to ask yourself, ”Who am l?n ”Who am l?” This will continue for another ten minutes – with the difference that you will do so sitting. If someone falls in the meantime, he should not worry about it, he should just fall down. Inside the compound no one will keep his eyes open. Krishna: The Man and His Philosophy 256 Osho
CHAPTER 13. KRISHNA GOES TO THE WEST Now, fold your two palms together and utter this pledge, this resolve. ”I resolve with God as my witness that I will bring all my energy to meditation.” ”I resolve, with God as my witness, that I will bring all my energy to meditation.” ”I resolve, with God as my witness, that I will bring all my energy to meditation.” Now, constantly remember your resolve, and remember that God remembers it.
