CHANGED for Sept 5th – Practical information for active meditation days

*** Starting time and prices have changed from Sept 5th. ***

++++++++++

And your growth is so slow, there is every fear that before you become enlightened the world will be gone.

You are not putting your total energy into meditation, into awareness. It is one of the things that you are doing, amongst many; and it is not even the first priority of your life. I want it to become your first priority.

Osho, The Hidden Splendour Chapter #14

Where

Unless otherwise stated, the Active Meditation days are at St Michael’s Hall, St Michaels Hill, Bristol, BS2 8BE (near Bristol Royal Infirmary.)
Map of St Michaels Hall.

It is easy to find and easy to park.

On this map, the entrance to the hall is by the letter “P” in the words “Park Ln”. There is good free parking in the hall’s grounds, entrance through black gates also by the letter “P”.  Ignore the University car parks which you pass on the right on your way up Old Park Hill.

If you have attended Five Rhythms workshops at St Michaels Hall, please note the entrance we use to the hall is not the entrance from the playground/car park which Five Rhythms use. Our entrance is the one outside the black gates which you drive your car through.

When

*** The times have changed for the Sept 5th day ***

The time for Dynamic for Sep 5th day is 9:00 am sharp. If you have only done dynamic once or twice before, or not at all, arrive by 8:45 sharp for instructions.

It is highly recommended to come to the 9:00 Dynamic. If not, arrive 10:00 to have a cup of tea and be ready to start at 10:30.

Doors will close during each meditation ie 9-10  for dynamic.

We suggest to not have breakfast before dynamic, it’s very active and breakfast may sit uncomfortably. There will be time for breakfast between 10:00 and 10:30. See “Food.”

Food and what to bring

Please bring a cushion to sit on, and if you wish a shawl, a blindfold and a water bottle.

Cost and payment

*** Prices have changed from Sept 5th onwards. ***

The cost is worked out in such a way that if you come, we pay you, and if you don’t come, then you pay us.  OK, joking, but there are inducements:-

The basic cost of each Active Meditations day is £22-50. NOTE:- The Live Meditation days with live music with Presence are priced separately and are not included in the special offers below.

However nobody needs to pay £22-50!

If you are new to Osho active meditations,  and have either never done these meditations before (ie dynamic, kundalini etc), or only done them a handful of times, then the first Active Meditation day is only £12-50. For example if you do a weekend or two at Croydon Hall or Osho Leela and then come along here, you only pay £12-50.

If you have been to one of these days before, but you bring a friend who hasn’t, you BOTH pay only £12-50.

You can buy a package of any three Active Meditation days in 2010 or 2011 for a total of  £45 ie £15 per day.

Please remember, the Live Meditation days with Presence are priced separately and are not included in any of these packages and special offers.

Please see this page for payment details.
