s1va Posted January 26, 2017 (edited) I saw this video yesterday on Facebook, so, I did a little research, because I am easily engrossed by things I find interesting. This pdf is part of my search history and is loaded with links that might be what you are looking for, or at least a decent start. Good luck! Want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for that. I see this as more than music. As the pdf says, vibrations that certain musics or sounds produce. There has been many confirmation for this. The video is simply inspiring. I see this vibration from music or certain sounds as a powerful path in and of itself. A system of it's own. Interestingly, there was something on the kriya context that I could relate. I was reading Ennio's work on kriya yoga. He says, he turned to some Beethoven's music when he faced some critical issues on his life. This seems to have resolved some major issues on his life, that other yogic practices couldn't seem to resolve. Truly amazing. I see it as psychoacoustics, as it is described on the pdf.

Kara_mia Posted February 12, 2017 “If one should desire to know whether a kingdom is well governed, if its morals are good or bad, the quality of its music will furnish the answer.” Confucius You can check Liji (Book of Rites) - the one of the five classics of Chinese Confucian literature, in particular its 19th chapter named Yueji (Record of music). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marblehead Posted February 12, 2017 “If one should desire to know whether a kingdom is well governed, if its morals are good or bad, the quality of its music will furnish the answer.” Confucius That sure doesn't say much for the USA today considering the type of music that is most popular today. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thelerner Posted February 13, 2017 I've always thought people should have a chant aspect to there practice. Sound, Kotodama (sacred sound) is a wonderful tool for cultivation. The shower in particular makes an awesome echo chamber and its a pity not to use it. I was first introduced to sacred sound in Aikido (http://www.aikido-health.com/kotodama.html) which derived it from esoteric Shinto practices. In Judaism I found Abullafiah's Kabbalic system (Ecstatic Kabbalah) which places sound similarly to Taoist tradition in different parts of the body. So once tuned in, you can feel where sound effects the body. Later I found Rawn Clark's YHVH chant that is really more a canticle, using sound to focus on internal and external aspects during practice. Sing, make noise, enjoy rhythms, create your own sacred sounds and look for chances to join your voice with others. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
