The Unknown Cure

Get Instant Access

The Unknown Cure, also known as Gibberish, is speech that makes no sense. It was practiced by the Sufi mystic Jabbar, who used nonsense sounds to show that the mind is nothing but gibberish. By expressing it, you create space beyond the mind.

This meditation allows you to consciously release control, clearing mental clutter and experiencing deep silence and your true being.

METHOD

In a cross-legged posture, preferably Padmasana (in Padmasana the right leg is first placed into position with the left leg on top, Siddhasana on the left side with the right leg positioned on top) with your spine straight. Tension should only be in your hands, while your arms and shoulders should be relaxed.

First Stage – (15 minutes)

Either standing or sitting, close your eyes and begin to say nonsense sounds – gibberish. Make any sounds that you like, but do not speak in a language, or use words that you know. Allow yourself to express whatever needs to be expressed within you. Throw everything out, go totally mad. Go consciously crazy. The mind thinks in terms of words. Gibberish will help you break this pattern of continuous verbalization. Without suppressing your thoughts, you can throw them out in this gibberish. Everything is allowed: sing, cry, shout, scream, mumble, talk. Let your body do whatever it wants: jump, lie down, pace, sit, kick and soon. Do not let empty spaces happen. If you cannot find sounds to gibber with, just say la, la, la, la, but don’t remain silent.

 Second Stage – (SILENCE)

After the gibberish, sit absolutely still, silent and relaxed, gathering your energy inwards, letting your thoughts drift further and further away from you, allowing yourself to fall into the deep silence and peacefulness that is at your center. You may sit on the floor or use a chair. Your head and back should be straight, your body relaxed, your eyes closed and your breathing natural.
