Ganga, Yari and Chetna of the Sambodhi Meditation Centre
It is exciting to hear that there is a new meditation centre in London run by Chetna and Ganga. About the centre and the meditation program they have arranged Chetna writes:
"Ganga and I are simple sannyasins on the path of meditation who are totally in love with Osho and full of gratitude for his outstanding input into the world. After only a few years of meditation, our lives have become so much enriched with love and grace from the Master that we could not resist sharing our knowledge about Osho and his meditations with everyone we knew. This happened naturally and brought us a lot of joy.
After few years of lonely meditations at personal homes, it became very clear and obvious to Ganga and I that there could be a way of meditating together, but still maintaining a 'normal' life without moving to a commune. We decided to take a risk and find a house big enough to accommodate at least 4 permanent residents and to provide space for a large meditation hall for active meditations.
Our main aim is meditation, living a healthy life style and, most importantly, the creation of a space where people can experience Osho meditations, listen to his lectures, read his books and simply drink his love. It has only been over a month since we have moved into the house and we already feel as if we live on another planet. We have created this oasis with the great help and inspiration of Arun Swami from Tapoban, which makes each day so blissful and peaceful.
For the first time we do not feel like we are living in a hectic non-spiritual London. Even the urge to go to some Osho commune for a long retreat has been disappearing and we are so happy and delighted that we have a chance to meditate together everyday.
We welcome everyone who is in love with Osho or simply interested in His meditations. We are not concerned about controversies that have been created by many new and old sannyasins. We simply do Osho meditations, listen to his discourses and try to be loving and understanding towards everyone who comes to our centre.
We are also happy to offer an overnight stay. We understand that sometimes it is just nice and necessary to forget about the world and go deeper into oneself. Hence friends can join us in the evening for an evening meditation, have dinner with us, breakfast and do Dynamic meditation in the morning.
Currently we have one room available in our centre for someone to move in who shares the same views and values.
With love, Chetna"
