Osho’s main technique was ‘witnessing’, or watching the mind with equanimity, just a non-judgemental awareness,until the mind slows down and gaps start to appear.
Osho had his first major satori at fourteen years of age.
He experimented with the techniques of the Vigyana Bhairava Tantra, an ancient Shaivite text which contains 112 methods of meditation, which he later gave a lengthy commentary on.
Witnessing and watching the mind remained his main meditation and it is said that he would spend hours sitting in meditation.
He also used to run for miles every day , early in the morning.
“Witnessing is almost the finest fire you can find. Witness anything and that thing soon disappears. And don't be afraid that beautiful spaces will disappear. You don't know yet what is really waiting ahead of you - when beautiful spaces and depressive moments both have gone, when that duality is no longer there.
You are not aware of what is going to happen to you. It is so profound and so deep that those who have found it have remained silent. They will not say a single word about it. There is no word in any language to express it. All these words - "beautiful," "blissful" - fall too short. And the greatest thing is that there is no duality, that you have come to a point which remains with you always; there is no opposite to it.
This is something to be remembered, that whenever you experience something of which there is no opposite, you have come home.”
(Osho - Light on the Path #25)

"If your parents ever measured you as a child, they had you stand against a wall, and made a little pencil mark on the wall to show your growth. They did not measure you against your brother, or the neighbor's kids, or kids on TV. When you measure your growth, make sure to only measure your today self by your past self. If you compare your relationships, your success, or your anything against anyone else, you are not being fair to you. Everyone has a different path, a different pace, and different challenges to face along the way."
