 First
Stage: Gibberish
While sitting, close your eyes and begin to say
nonsense sounds – any sounds or words, so long as
they make no sense. Just speak any language that
you don't know! Allow yourself to express whatever
needs to be expressed within you. Throw everything
out. The mind thinks, always, in terms of words.
Gibberish helps to break up this pattern of
continual verbalization. Without suppressing your
thoughts, you can throw them out. Let your body
likewise be expressive.
Second Stage:
Moving In
After some minutes of Gibberish, there is a
drumbeat, at which point the Gibberish stops.
Osho’s voice then guides the listener into a space
of deep silence, stillness and relaxation, saying,
for example, “Be silent, close your eyes...no
movement of the body – feel frozen. Go inwards,
deeper and deeper, just like an arrow. Penetrate
all the layers and hit the center of your
existence.”

Third Stage: Let-Go
Another drumbeat and, without arranging yourself,
just allow yourself to fall down "like a bag of
rice," so you are lying, utterly still and
relaxed, on your back as you are guided even more
deeply into a silent stillness. |
