I’m
celebrating my 60th birthday this year. The sound of this number
resonates as if so much must have happened during all these years. Yes,
it is true, it did. I feel so rich with the variety of events and the
exceptional places I have visited, the wisdom that was showered upon me
by so many unique teachers and masters. But what I feel that
brings together and integrates, what life has blessed me with, has been
the inspiration Presence that Osho has had in my life. It
appears clearly to me today that, the most challenging way of life, is
living continuously and for long period around
an enlighten Master. When, at the age of 26 years old, I
chose to be part of Osho’s Buddha field, I could
not foresee what impact would have in my life. And also
that Osho would leave His body, in my understanding, so early: only 15
years after my initiation. I was fortunate that His Presence remained
vivid and His Teachings a continuous source of light and understanding
for me. And still is so today. This
makes me that I want to share what I see as the results in my life
after more than 30 years of devotion to a Master and Meditation. My
life around /with Osho was as ordinary as anybody
else’s. I was confronted with every life challenge as any other
human being. What made it extraordinary was/is this continuous search
for conscious behavior, loving attitudes, clear and open relations
that happen through the practice of Meditation. And this was/is what
Osho, through His physical presence then, and His inspiration
today, blessed me with. Although I know that the flow of events
and situations were quite unusual, I always felt and still do
today, to have a very ordinary existence. And probably my greatest
fortune has been to have found totality in everything I do, in
relating to everyone I meet, in the search for everything that inspires
me. I
would have difficulty to find that anything else but meditation can
give you such a clear under standing. Living around/with Osho made me
interested in every aspect of life and skillfully qualified in some of
them. Feeling competent brings creativity and fulfills my
need to love; so my creativity today has blossomed in the fields of the
human body; in the understanding of its mind; in the integration of
Meditation. As far as the body is concerned, all my creative work is expressed through the Scuola O.D.H.A. and manifested in the understanding that: the Healer is the healed.
This means that our Scuola O.D.H.A. is a School for healers: first the
healing of the self and consequently of the others. To create the
opportunity for understanding mind, its mechanisms and believe system,
it’s a vast and most challenging task. My continuous search
studies and endless world wide traveling for workshops of
self-awakening has been a true “life university”
and contributed to my integration and awakening. Meditation
is the greatest gift that I have given to myself and when anyone wants
to learn from me, that is the secret in my heart that I want to share.
In anything I teach, with everyone I meet. Then, all teachings may be
useful, all techniques can be right, and always Love is the Key.
