Six weeks ago Archa, Sans and Vimlan started an Osho meditation course in Penzance, mainly for new people. The course has been very successful with 14 to 18 people attending each Tuesday evening. Each evening starts with a 20 minute long Osho discourse followed by a different meditation such as Kundalini, Nataraj etc. Last week they did a laughing meditation which people at first found strange but then loved. The last meditation in the course will be Vipassana with walking – and hugging!
Each evening ends with tea and biscuits and a chat. People can ask questions about meditation and are very eager to know more. The next course will be in January because in a few days Archa and Sans leave to go trekking in the Himalayas and wont be back until mid-December. On their return they plan to run a second course in January (they say making it a ‘course’ seems to work more as an incentive for people to come than making it an on-going weekly event), some Meditation Days and Archa also wants to do some sessions around ‘Death and Dying’. Archa and Sans say that if any sannyasins want to come and join in they would be delighted.venue: ‘Chygwella’ Healing Centre, Morrab Rd, Penzance
