My search leads me to tantra at the age of 18. I was studying Philosophy and Orientalistic when I found a book of the mystic Osho and left everything to be close to that master. He taught me to die, and live with utter totality at the same time , celebrating life in all its expressions.
When I got to Gateless Gate (portal without door) as Osho used to call the entrance to the his ashram in Poona, I knew it was worth leaving college and having challenged the structure of my entire family to get there.
I was looking for a path to the divine in all, and I found it. This kind of search out of the established religion was considered escape or beeing brainwashed by a sekt. It was a difficult time for me and my family.
At that moment Osho had dared to dig up the book of secrets for us to understand human nature and how it moves in a constant duality between men and women, sex, death, light / dark, quiet movement, etc.
The Book of Secrets or Vyghyam Bhairav Tantra is a conversation between Shiva and his consort Shakti or Devi, in profound union of love and trust sitting in yab-yum position, she asks: … Beloved , what is love? … and Shiva did not answer the question instead he started conveying to her techniques that allow the direct experience of love, death and consciousness.
And so I sat at the feet of Osho as he introduced us to the secrets of the Vigyan Bhairav Tantra containing one hundred and twelve techniques of meditation to transcend the mind, to enlighten, to become truth, transcend death, to live in love, in full expanded consciousness
I am very gratefull for having been witness to the courage, love and wisdom of Osho bringing these Tantric teachings into the light.
For a thirsty young seeker of truth as I was, it seemed a blessing to realize that God does not have to give up on life, or sex, nor celebration. That love between two people is sacred and that love can grow and grow from inside and expand into all aspects of your life.
Osho was called dismissingly: the sex Guru and was attacked from many sides for his honest and clear presentation of tantra, including the aspect that everyone wants to deny: sex.
In addition to his lectures, I had the opportunity to serve over 8 years the sangha, the Comune, the master, Osho, and the Dharma, The Truth.
Living in the commune working with people from all over the world, with whom you share the loveaffair with truth was a supreme way of experimenting.
Also in therapy groups and tantra where the work was purely experimental . integrating the physical, emotional and mental, all guided with meditation and towards meditation. Gestalt, bioenergetics, respiration, Ericksonian hypnosis, NLP, tantra, meditation mystical multiple streams, Jungian work, sex therapy, etc. were learned techniques to create the space you want to share: The sheer presence of mind in the here and now, relaxation of the heart and trust Knowing what Is
When Osho left his body and was carried to the Ghats, we were singing, laughing and crying at the crematorium by the banks of the river, I knew I needed one last step to understanding. I had cleared my body of past tensions, brought consciousness to my emotional wounds, and accepted lovingly the scars. I had experienced the gradual opening of my heart . But I knew something was incomplete and asked him to guide me to complete.
My journey went on, charevedi… on my way.. I left Poona and with 4 beloved friends set out to find Girida a very still, young enlightened Master. At the foot of Guirida whose teaching was based on sitting in silence for many hours and pay attention to the heart I learned to be still, completely relaxed, now!
During this period my energy began to turn inward. My body and my heart bursting with energy, alive and at the same time utterly still.
Blessed by Guiridas stillness, life took me to sit at the feet of Papaji, a master as present as a rock. His inquiry: Who are you? Pierced into me so single pointedly and I was so relaxed that my mind stopped I can not remember for how long because time vanished and suddenly everything fell into its place, I experienced the transcendence of duality. The mind stops and You Are CONSCIOUSNESS pure and undivided, conscious of itself, everything and nothing, love is, no lover or beloved, only love!
In that realization I knew and understood what Osho, Jesus, St. Teresa, and Buddha, Rumi, Gurdjieff, Tantra, Christ and all had meant. My cells danced as part of the universe and since then there is a kind of calm smile in my soul that seems to survive all the storms of life.
A year later I was ready to return to Spain, full with truth and full of enthusiasm to share.
Now 20 years have passed and step by step my willingness to share is being embraced by many whose concern about experiencing life in all dimensions, leads them to search.
