From thinking to feeling

Our senses have become dull and our life cluttered. We need to cleanse our thoughts and senses but that will happen only when we move from the mind to the heart, This is the new thought in the air.

It is not thinking about the wine that can make you intoxicated, it is the drinking of wine. In the same way, if you want to experience yourself, you have to shift the gear from thinking to feeling. How to do it? Osho gives a simple and effective meditation, which can bring your energy into the heart and open its treasures. In the day, as many times as you remember, just take a deep breath; feel it hitting just the middle of your chest. Feel as if the whole existence is pouring into you, into your heart, exactly in the middle —not on the left, not on the right... exactly in the middle. It has nothing to do with the physical heart. It is a totally a different thing; this heart center belongs to the subtle body. So breathe deeply, take it in, and fill the heart. Just feel that the existence is pouring into your heart: vitality, life, peace, godliness and nature. And then exhale deeply, again from the heart, and feel you are pouring all that has been given to you, back into existence. Repeat it many times in the day, but whenever you do it, do five breaths at once. That will help you to shift, from the head to the heart. As a result, you will become more and more sensitive, more and more aware of many things, of which you have never been aware. You will smell more, you will taste more, you will touch more deeply. There will be clarity in your vision, you will hear more sharply; everything will become intense. Our senses have become dull because we are surrounded by mechanical sounds. Much dust has gathered on them. Once these senses are cleaned — and that cleaning happens only when you move from the heart.... If you move from the head, senses become dull, dust gathers, because the mind never allows you to feel. Each time you want to feel it gives a rational substitute. So move from the head to the heart, and all your senses will become suddenly luminous
