Osho “Mahaparinirvana” the Great Enlightenment Celebration Weekend: LIVE Music celebrations & Meditations
January 20, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - January 22, 2023 @ 3:00 pm
Dear friends,
Happy new Year!! Let’s begin this new year with Meditations, Music and Celebrations!
Osho Tushita Ashram has invited Ma Tara Shambala and her musical band to perform LIVE OSHO MUSIC at the Osho Mahaparinirvana Celebration in Palmetto Bay, Florida the weekend of January 20-22, 2023.
The weekend will feature a LIVE OSHO MUSIC Dance Party Saturday night where all the music will be original, “Never Heard Before” Osho Dance/Meditation music.
On Sunday, a blast from the past with live “Osho Music Group”!
Many of the older Osho songs that we love so much from Pune 1, the Ranch and Pune 2, will be resuscitated and brought ‘back to life” with renewed vigor and energy!
Of course, the weekend will include a full schedule of Osho meditations, vegetarian meals and a friendly sangha of Osho lovers.
January 19th is the day when Osho left his mortal body. Osho says, “Buddhists have two terms for Nirvana. The ultimate enlightenment they call Mahaparinirvana, and enlightenment they call Nirvana. Nirvana means a Buddha is in the body. He has attained to illumination, he has become a knower, but he is still in the body, the body of imperfection. He is still in the world of imperfect parts. This is Nirvana, enlightenment. Then when he leaves the body, when he simply disappears into the ultimate emptiness, it is Mahaparinirvana, it is the Great Enlightenment.”
These meditations are playful and can be practiced by anyone, whether you are just learning to meditate or have been meditating for years. The techniques are more powerful when practiced in a group and in a dedicated space which creates an energy field. Also, we recommend that you attend the whole day to get a feel of the inner transformation, and not to break the group flow.
All levels are welcome, if you have never meditated in your life and want to try it out, it’s a great opportunity to dive in with very different techniques for any personality and need – all Osho meditations will be explained and guided, your practice will be supported by a friendly group of meditators.
RSVP and pre-payment is required for this event to make food arrangements.
