Dance

Cathartic Dancing Meditation is a cosmic powerhouse that can be practiced by students in good health with a normal cardiovascular system.

As it is a physically strenuous exercise, one should get a complete physical examination by a competent physician before experimenting with this technique.

Cathartic Dancing Meditation is similar to Rajneesh Dynamic Meditation but is simpler, easier to do, and is more likely to keep you interested month after month, year after year.

Neither method is really new. Sufis, Druids, and countless other esoteric and tribal cultures have used similar techniques for centuries. Most students will benefit from doing Cathartic Dancing Meditation daily for a period of between one to five years. After five years it has usually done its job, and the student can then concentrate on more subtle meditation methods.


Cathartic Dancing Meditation changes you from head to toe, and benefits all the other meditation methods you practice. It also helps develop a powerful hara center. I am reluctant to bring up the subject of kundalini because of the common misrepresentations of its manifestations.

I feel compelled to inform you, however, that this physically vigorous meditation method is the most powerful kundalini awakening technique I know of. Cathartic Dancing Meditation has three stages and lasts for 40 minutes.

Stage #1

ten minutes

Start by standing with your eyes closed and breathe deep and fast through your nose continuously.

Allow your body to move freely as you breathe. You can jump up and down, sway back and forth, or use any physical motion that helps you pump more oxygen into your lungs.

Stage #2

twenty minutes

The second stage is a celebration of catharsis and wild and spontaneous dancing.

Totally let go and act as an ancient human dancing in tribal celebration. Energetic, nonverbal background music is recommended. African tribal drum music works especially well. You may roll on the ground and do strange spontaneous body movements.

Allow your body to move within the limits of not hurting yourself or others.

Screaming is encouraged.

You must act out any anger you may have in a safe way, such as beating the earth with your hands.

All of the suppressed emotions from your subconscious mind are to be released.

If at anytime during the second stage you feel that your energy level is starting to decline, you can resume deep and fast breathing to give yourself a boost.

Stage #3

ten minutes

This stage is complete quiet and relaxation.

Flop down on your back, get comfortable, and just let go.

Be as if a dead man totally surrendered to the cosmos.

Enjoy the tremendous energy you have unleashed in the first two stages, and be a silent witness to it.

Observe the feeling of the ocean flowing into the drop. Become the ocean.

This spontaneous dancing meditation technique is intended to grow with the student and change as the student changes.

After a few years of vigorously practicing this method, the first two stages of the meditation may drop away spontaneously.

You may then begin the meditation by taking a few deep breaths and immediately enter the deep tranquility of the third stage.

If practiced correctly, this method is health giving and fun.


Almost all Westerners are head oriented and emotionally repressed, so a chaotic, spontaneous, and emotionally cleansing technique like Cathartic Dancing Meditation is vital for serious progress to be made quickly.

The physical benefits of this technique obviate any need for hatha yoga or traditional kundalini yoga methods.

I strongly recommend that the Cathartic Dancing Meditation technique only be used in combination with traditional quiet sitting meditation methods.

While active meditation methods can be very helpful, they are not complete systems in themselves. If you only practice active meditation techniques, you will be doing only half of the internal work that needs to be done.

This is a great thing to do in a group but spread out....

Sounds fun

I agree. It does sound fun. I'd love to try it.
