It's All Gibberish

Gibberish, when done with absolute intensity, takes us out of our logical mind and into the realms of the mysterious and spiritual. Here are some guidelines for Gibberish meditation; it will take you no more than 10 minutes to practise each stage respectively.

First Stage: Throw thoughts out; get rid of gibberish
  1. While sitting, close your eyes and begin to utter nonsense sounds - any sounds or words, so long as they make no sense.
  2. Just speak any language that you don't know!
  3. Allow yourself to express whatever needs to be expressed within you. Throw everything out.
  4. The mind thinks, always, in terms of words. Gibberish helps to break up this pattern of continual verbalisation. Without suppressing your thoughts, you can throw them out.
  5. Let your body likewise be expressive.
Second Stage: Moving into a great silence
  1. Just sit in a space of deep silence, stillness and relaxation.
  2. Go inwards, deeper and deeper, just like an arrow.
  3. Penetrate all the layers and hit the centre of your existence.
The Gibberish technique is a wonderful tool to get rid of anger and frustration. However, it is not only about removing negativity. It also helps the practitioner express and enjoy positive emotions such as joy or excitement. It gives you an opportunity to feel free and uninhibited.
