「苏菲旋转是最古老,最强烈的静心技巧之一。它的深度让你即使
只是一次的经验都能够感受到完全不同的改变。打开眼睛旋转,就
像孩童般不断的转,宛如内在变成了中心,而身体变成轮子般的转
动,就像制陶器的转轮,不断的移动。你处于中心眼,而整个身体
转动着。」

第一个阶段:45分钟

  眼睛保持打开,感觉身体的中心点。双手臂向外伸开且与肩同
高,右手掌向上,左手掌向下。以自己为轴开始旋转。身体保持柔
软。开始的时候先慢慢来,15分钟之后再慢慢加速。你成了能量的
漩涡──暴风圈在外围转动,但是中心点的观照保持宁静与如如不
动。



第二个阶段:15分钟

  当音乐停止,让身体倒在地上﹝可能在音乐停止之前身体就倒
下了。﹞。立刻转身腹部朝下,让你的肚脐与大地连结。感觉身体
与大地混合在一起。闭上眼睛,保持柔顺与宁静。

English instructions for the 2 stages of Osho Whirling Meditation

Sufi whirling is one of the most ancient techniques. It is good not to eat or drink for a
few hours before whirling. It is best to have bare feet and loose clothing.


First stage: 45 minutes (with music)

Keep your eyes open and feel the center point of your body. Lift your arms to
shoulder height, with the right hand palm up and the left hand low, palm down. Start
turning around your own axis, anticlockwise. Let your body be soft. Start slowly and
after 15 minutes gradually go faster and faster. You become a whirlpool of energy -
the periphery a storm of movement but the witness at the center silent and still.


Second stage: 15 minutes (in silence)

Let your body fall to the ground when the music stops (it may already have
happened before). Roll onto your stomach immediately so that your navel is in
contact with the earth. Feel your body blending into the earth. Keep your eyes
closed and remain passive and silent.
