A practical manual which sets out to teach us how we can use our voice,
and our ability to create harmonics and tones, in some very interesting and
beneficial ways. The human voice is an amazing and beautiful instrument and
all of us have one. Sadly most of us are totally unaware of the power and
beauty of our own God-given voice. Goldman's book remedies that ignorance.
It gives us detailed and precise instructions for toning - "the singing of
prolonged sounds, usually simple vowels, on a single note" (Le Mee)- which
anyone can follow.
This valuable book is divided in
two parts. The first is The Secret Power of The Word, in which the author
discusses the science of sacred sound with reference to its principle of
resonance (sympathetic vibration), the principles of rhythm, melody and
harmony, plus qualities like pitch and timbre. The scales and the healing
elements of music are investigated - the section on the musical interplay
with the charkas is particularly enlightening. Part Two, the Renaissance of
the Bardic Traditions, provides a history of the mystical bards and deals
with magical storytelling. It includes a section on musical instruments like
the lyre, harp, guitar, keyboard instruments, flute and others. There is
also a captivating section on magical poetry. The book concludes with the
chapter Bardic Healing that provides practical techniques for tuning and
healing the human body.
Every life form is made up of
vibrations that coincide with the harmonic frequency to which all life is
attuned. The vibrations of the body easily go out of tune when a person is
exposed to physical or emotional stress. VIBRATIONAL HEALING THROUGH THE
CHAKRAS provides the most up-to-date information on the use of vibrational
tools such as crystals, aromas, sounds, bodywork, and homeopathy to help the
body remember its own healthy harmonic resonance. Author Joy Gardner offers
this in-depth look at vibrational healing for people interested in improving
their own health and well-being, as well as those who want to become
practitioners of this gentle art. Explore how to use vibrations to release
old dysfunctional patterns in the body-mind and replace them with new
patterns that resonate with the body’s own healthy frequencies.
One of the world’s oldest
unbroken spiritual traditions is that of the Bön people—the indigenous
people of Tibet, whose teachings predate the arrival of Buddhism. These
traditions have survived political persecution and upheaval thanks to the
efforts of a handful of dedicated lamas such as Bön lineage holder Tenzin
Wangyal Rinpoche. Now with Tibetan Sound Healing, practitioners can connect
to the ancient sacred sounds of the Bön practice—and through them, activate
the healing potential of the natural mind. The Bön healing tradition invokes
The Five Warrior Syllables—"seed" sounds that bring us to the essential
nature of mind and release the boundless creativity and positive qualities
that are fundamental to our natural consciousness. Through the medicine of
sound, practitioners learn to clear obstacles on the level of the body, the
energetic and emotional dimensions of being, and the spiritual
consciousness. Through this integrated book and CD learning program, Tenzin
Rinpoche gives users the tools to access wisdom and compassion and use the
vibration of sacred sound to cultivate the healing power within the body’s
subtle channels. Lama and Bön meditation master Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche is
renowned for his gift of rendering ancient texts in a warm and clear way to
his Western readers. With Tibetan Sound Healing, he reveals the secrets of
Bön sacred syllables and invites us to join him in sound to purify the body,
connect with our inherent perfection and completeness, and to awaken
spiritual virtue.
