Speaking in Tongues.

[goldman]

I caught myself doing this several times, awkward idea I know. But it comes spontaneously, as a feeling I cannot surpress. I usually talk in (unknown) languages, words and sentences, but they feel right to say at that moment.

Anyone ever do this? or has experience with this phenomenon? or what it means?

No, not consciously, but I have woken up out of a dream once talking fluently in some other language

[goldman]

Got it plenty of times, usually at night though, before going to bed and waking up. I also sing or mumbling in tongues as well. Funny thing is, I didn't know it was called "speaking in tongues", I only found out that it's called like that after searching on internet. So finally got a name for it! :D

I just found this video a study from a University, they analyzed people who speak in tongues. Amazingly, they found that the brain area for speech is disabled when people speak in tongues:

I hate it when you type the title for the message and hit enter and it tries to submit the post !!
Anywho,
This reminds me of something a bit strange.
My stomach said "Hello" to me TWO times within one hour as clear as a computer synthesized voice.
I actually had to say hello back because it was so convincing and I still think there is something more than just random chance to it.

You've heard of Mary Rodwell from Probe. Could your own experience be related to what she talks about?:confused:

[phildee3]

It's definately opening yourself to spirits coming through.

99% of the time, - demons!

I remember Mary Rodwell's speech at the Probe I went to in October. I never thought at the time it could be related to what she talks about but it could well be.

[dedicate]

I know exactly what you are talking about, goldman. Go with it. It's not a bad thing. People may look at you askew, but who cares? Most of the time what you are saying will be understood if listed to with the Third Ear.. the over-ear. (in fact, you should have some figment of an idea what it is you are saying)

What you are saying in tongues is more to-the-point than anything said in the native tongue by most people. Don't listen to what the others are saying on this. It's a good thing. You are waking your spirit.

Yes. Sometimes in God's language, occasionally in Hebrew (I think,I googled some words and they came up as Hebrew). Haven't done it in about a year, though.

[phildee3]

No, you are surrendering your spirit,
allowing another to speak through you.

Interesting, thanks for the replies so far. :)

At first, yeah it sounds "possessed" or something until I read further, and read that some Christians are doing this, and sometimes also in public.

[dedicate]

You are doing some good important work on yourself. People may say that it is a sign of possession from somewhere else,, but it is just the opposite. You are beginning the possession of your self by your self. You are loosening the mind's possession over you and getting a glimpse of the true self.-- the spirit man.

I don't have to tell you not to look at this as an achievement or like some new toy to play with? Actually you should ignore it, forget about it, not seek out the experience. Let it happen if it happens but don't think much about it. You are entering a new world of the self and there is still far to go.

A Sat-Guru once said, when she was waking up, she would see into people's bodies and into their skins at their organs, she could see people outside the house minutes before they arrived.. She said also that every mark of good sense is to pay no attention to such things and see them as part of the process to higher realizations. Use them for good but don't make much of it.

You are doing good if you are having these experiences. I can not tell you how much good this experience is for anybody.

[tejas]

Yes I can do this, In my opinion it is the activation of meta-language as in some deep subconsious level of primordial language that is being spoken from deep within the mind,

I very much doubt it is God or whatever, just another mysterious trick of the mind,

Hey Goldman
You might try hanging out at some Pentacostal churches. They appear to do that talking in tongues thing all the time.

777? LOL!
Got to be better than 666
Talking in tongues got a bit of press when Sarah Palin's former church got in the news. They mentioned some members doing that but not Sarah herself.
Always sort of wondered what was up with all that.
The apostles at Pentacost could be understood by everybody in the audience at the same time, right?
But does anybody understand anybody talking in tongues nowadays?
Never heard it myself.

What happened at Pentacaust was different than anything that has ever happened since. Those Disciples were talking to foreigners in their native languages. That is not what we are talking about here.

And we are not talking about making a religion out of it, either. What we are talking about is an experience that few people ever have. It is difficult to describe if you have not either seen it or experienced it for your self. -- outside of a Bible Study group or Chuch event.

It may be that the spirit is "learning to talk". The spirit is learning to formulate concepts and ideas that the normal fitfulness of the person usually will not accomidate. Like a friend my be talking and you would just say "Pa Ba Ba" or "Guramu Mantamba" in response. And it has meaning! Maybe you are telling him to shut up,, or maybe you are saying "take action and leave that stupid job". Something you wouldn't normally say. There's more to it than that but that is part of it.

[pinkfreud]

i wish i could wake up one day and speak in french/spanish/german/arabic/swahili/portuguese/some random alien lingo.

maybe those who've experienced this either tuned in subconsciously to their past life, or were possessed by a spirit who felt the need to communicate something at that point.

if the latter comes into view, then you'll would be channellers of some sort :)

In my experiences, both as participant and witness, sometimes the Holy Spirit uses a vessel to communicate a message to a third party, say for example, an English person may start speaking in Igbo and the message may be for a member of that Nigerian tribe. Other times, it is just worship language, which is recognisable but not of the earth. I can tell when TV evangelists are faking it, because there is a difference between heaven's language and gobbledygook. :D Besides, I don't think the Spirit would move on TV, imo. Especially when prayer requests are granted with a credit card.

i agree a 100%.

i wonder what happens though when people seem to get possessed by another entity- that happens a lot here, especially during black magic rituals. i guess they instigate such things to harbour negative energy.

and well, if you're a vessel- especially a participant, that makes you a channeller/psychic/empath of some sort =)

you're tuned in to that frequency.

:) We're all extensions of our Creator. The key is to not let anything in that is not Holy. My ex-housemate used to be possessed quite frequently and have no recollections of conversations between me and her entity. She wonders why she's always ill, ailing with this and that. Could it be perhaps whatever she invokes feeds off her, to her detriment...

yeah, seems like she's got some negative energy feeding off her own.

ask her to place black tourmaline under her pillow while she's asleep and in her pockets all the time. it helps ward off parasitic forces and it should help i guess. people on this forum swear by it.

maybe you should do it too, since you're very receptive to other entities.

That which is created is mortal. If it had a beginning, it has an end.
Our spirits are infinite and eternal.

The key is to not let anything in.
We are already holy. The key is to expel, or transcend, all that is not (ie all that was created).

That would intimate that everyone has an open communication with the Infinite and not everyone does because they keep He/She/It out.

[eternal_spirit]

I have spoken some strange words and wondered what they mean, but never written them down, then how do you spell them.

Next time it happens to anyone they should do a search for the words.

Tapping into the collective conciousness?

Seems most likely to me.... Though that's just my opinion ;)

[phildee3]

No. The reason why people don't have communication with the Infinite is because they are not in touch with their "higher selves" that exists within them.

I've been in some churches where speaking in tongues is considered a necessary sign of salvation, and I've been in other churches where speaking in tongues is considered a sign of lunacy or demonic possession. I wouldn't care to hazard a guess as to who is theologically right or wrong on that question, because both sides quote from the same Bible in order to justify their beliefs and practices. All I will say is that if you want to see some of the ludicrous behavior that a belief system which includes the practice of speaking in gibberish can lead to, then have a look at this video:

YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.

For this reason, one should not base their theology on what is written, nor anything external to oneself, but upon one's own gnosis.
The quoting of scripture is for illustrating such knowledge, not for formulating it.

[kasalt]

Much of the behavior that can be seen in the Pentecostal/Charismatic movement frequently appears to be little more than "voodoo" repackaged for white people:

[wellsyboy]

I've done this loads and loads of times, very often as a kid, used to make up silly songs (better than Alexei Sayles and not dressed as a fascist either). Only find myself doing it infrequently now (maybe once every few months). Really weird I guess but took it as normal and kind of felt like a release of energy.

BTW - do not go to church, never have (except weddings) and totally non religious, also, no signs of abuse either (unless very suppressed!).

Not sure what it is but don't think it is possession, at least hope not :eek:

Other times, it is just worship language, which is recognisable but not of the earth.

I've heard of only a few other anecdotes to that effect, none of which have ever been independently confirmed. Curiously, such occurrences have never been recorded on audio or video. A number of studies have been performed on so-called "glossolalia" by linguistic experts, and "speaking in tongues" has always been determined to be absolute gibberish:

"When the full apparatus of linguistic science comes to bear on glossolalia, this turns out to be only a facade of language — although at times a very good one indeed. For when we comprehend what language is, we must conclude that no glossa, no matter how well constructed, is a specimen of human language, because it is neither internally organized nor systematically related to the world man perceives."And yet we are told in the book of Acts that "every man heard them speak in his own language (http://kingjbible.com/acts/2.htm)".

The scam of glossolalia is perpetuated today by calling speaking in gibberish "the tongues of angels" (1 Corinthians 13:1), instead of any human language to be found on earth -- a very convenient escape clause indeed.

Here are the results of another glossolalia study:

One individual's ecstatic speech was tape recorded and played back separately to many individuals who sincerely and devoutly believed that they had received the gift of interpreting tongues. Their interpretations were quite inconsistent; e.g., one said that "the utterances referred to a prayer for the health of someone's children." Another interpreted the speech as "praising God for a recent and successful church fund-raising effort." It is obvious from that study that those particular interpreters were unable to extract significant meaning out of the glossolalia.Source: http://www.religioustolerance.org/tongues5.htm

I can observe and participate in subjects without my opinions being changed.

[aee02]

I was in a Christian summer camp 8 yrs old when I took that salvation step. Some of the kids began speaking in tongues. I definitely felt something happened to me spiritually but as an adult I can't help but feel that maybe some of the kids were coerced into this language.

I feel uncomfortable in settings where people are speaking in tongues and "hopping pews". I do not question the genuiness of the people who are speaking but I question the validity. I don't know if it is the discerning of spirits that makes me feel uncomfortable or that it is the chaos that ensues because there is not an interpreter present.

I just felt I have never truly experienced someone actually speaking in tongues and perhaps if I felt that I had I may have a different opinion of it. I do not mean to detract from anyone else's experience because their's may have been the real thing. Its just from my experience it has felt more like coersion and jibberish.

I think we go beyond it's meaning with all sorts of attempts to explain it philosophical, theological & psychological right?

What I feel on such moment is indescribable. I don't have a very broad religious background to know that religious people were doing it, so it's a coincidence I found out it's used in religion.

So what it aims at for me, is talking from within. Something speaks or wants to say something in a language unknown to my mind. I don't really think it should or would matter something other than I know that it has a kind of grammar and flow that is very authoritarian in a strange way. It feels like communication takes place on some sort of level I cannot comprehend (as of yet) but I do feel that it is important in some sense. :)

My posts on this thread were aimed at its use in religion, and were not directed at your particular experience. All to often with religion, Glossolalia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia is contrived and taken to extremes which quite naturally lead to absurdities and abuses. But in my opinion this does not mean that a person should not "speak in tongues" if they genuinely feel moved to do so. I suppose that if I were to find myself in such a state, I would go with the flow as well.

wow thats awsome that you have that gift.A friend of mine became born again some years ago and i was invited along to the church to witness this,there were people talking in tounges in the church,i swear ive never seen anything like it!Its an ancient language they talk in,or so ive been told!Enjoy your gift youve been given it for a reason!

[goldman]

Exactly. :) Philosophers who haven't experienced it cannot write anything of merit.


Yeah, this is what I like about the David Icke forum, many people here are open minded before ridiculing anything, which is sure a sign that the people who come here have a great level of compassion/comprehension/understanding/intelligence/intuition (pick one or more) :D

it's a good place to be here, to share ideas & experiences without the risk of being put down on something very personal, doesn't mean there aren't critics, there are a lot of critics, but they have critique in a constructive manner.

That is exactly what "faith" means to me. If one isn't in tune with him/her self and the world, one can never have faith, because it lacks self-faith. To me, faith is about love and self-trust, not so much about "religion". I my opinion many religious people get it wrong and only are religious because for various reasons and lacking love and true faith.

And that is where ridicule plays a big part, because those who ridicule aren't in touch with themselves, who they truly are. It might also be fear of encountering something that comes very close which undermines previous thoughts and conclusions of who they thought they were.

Thanks. :) I wonder though when people start doing it, and for what reason since I certainly think that some will do it as a sort of group response, whereas some (like me I guess) do it spontaneously.

I'm quite amazed at my uttering, like I said it usually has very authoritarian tone, almost if it's a kind of spoken warning to cast off a bad entities or to warn them. (at least that is the feeling I get with it)

secondly, there are also moments of joy in it, (like the soft singing and whispering) I had it a couple of times early in the morning, I start to chant a bit (automatically) and suddenly a bird came at the tree next to my window and started to chirp on it's own. a kind of bird I never heard before (on his tone), almost complete silence, and no-one on the streets, and we sang together a sweet tune :D awkward to admit now, but these things happen. :o

I also read somewhere that speaking (and singing) in tongues is a very personal language & personal message, I believe that is true. As in: For your ears only :D

I'm not sure that what you are describing can correctly be called "tongues."
The definition of a "tongue" is "a language" ("...they heard them each in his own tongue").

These are more accurately described as "vocalisations."
They do not pretend to be a language (in the sense that each sound represents a specific concept).

Yes, I do that too.
It's fun!
Lewis Carrol made use of it - in "nonsense poetry."
