Youth Meditation camp is an attempt to create a meditative and celebrative atmosphere for today’s youth in which they can easily imbibe Osho’s vision with the help of His different meditation techniques. In turn, this should help them with clarity and inner centering through which life becomes meaningful and blissful at the same time. What is unique to Youth Meditation Camp is that along with different meditation techniques, they also participate in various creative and playful activities which makes them lighter and more open and helps them to easily go deep into meditation and bloom splendidly in dance and celebration.&nbsp;Osho says, "In Buddha's time, such dynamic methods were not needed. People were more simple, more authentic. They lived a more real life. Now people are living a very repressed life, very unreal life. When they don't want to smile, they smile. When they want to be angry, they show compassion. People are false, the whole life pattern is false. The whole culture is like a great falsity. People are just acting, not living. So, much hangover, many incomplete experiences go on being collected, piled up, inside their mind.So just sitting directly in silence won't help. The moment you will sit silently, you will see all sorts of things moving inside you. You will feel it almost impossible to be silent. First throw those things out so you come to a natural state of rest. But, real meditation starts only when you are in rest."&nbsp;"Running can be a meditation - jogging, dancing, swimming, anything can be a meditation. My definition of meditation is: whenever your body, mind, soul are functioning together in rhythm it is meditation, because it will bring the fourth in. And if you are alert that you are doing it as a meditation - not to take part in the Olympics, but doing it as a meditation - then it is tremendously beautiful."&nbsp;For the camp, Osho’s discourses have been chosen keeping in mind the needs and problems of today’s youth. Listening to Osho in a relaxed state gives them the clarity to resolve the many issues which they may have been carrying while coming for the camp. Dancing, celebrating, jumping, running, sitting silently many things change and transformation happens on its own.Osho has often quoted Zen Master Basho’s haiku, “SITTING SILENTLY DOING NOTHING, THE SPRING COMES AND THE GRASS GROWS BY ITSELF”. Here in this camp one can easily and playfully experience the essence of this Haiku.&nbsp;"Youth is the best time for inner transformation because youth is the most flexible time. Children are more flexible than young people, but they are not so understanding. They need a little experience. Youth is exactly the middle; you are no longer a child, no longer ignorant of life and its ways and not yet settled as an old man. You are in a state of transition, and the state of transition is the best time that you can jump out of the wheel of life and death. Youth is the most significant time to take any jump, because the jump needs courage, it needs energy, it needs risk, it needs daring." Osho (The Dhammapada : The Way of the Buddha, Vol. 8, Chapter #1)
