| that if, for example, your first encounter with a dog involves being bitten, your brain creates a neural "short cut" that equates dogs with danger. It might require numerous positive experiences with dogs for a new neural pathway to be created. Meanwhile, emotionally and biologically, the reality for you is that dogs are dangerous. Meditation, scientist Candace Pert has said, "works in an integrated, vibrational way, like music works, by allowing parts of our personality to connect with other parts" and continually create new neuronal pathways. Music and meditation reinforce each other. (Continued below...) |
| According to scientists who study the brain, meditation calms and heals over time by creating new neural networks — pathways in the brain that process stimuli and form our habits and beliefs. Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, in his delightful book The Joy of Living, explains |
| The essence of sound healing is the re-tuning of the human instrument, correcting at whatever level those frequencies which have become weakened or gone out of tune.. This is done on the basis of resonance, be it sympathetic vibrations or the power of forced resonance. Basically, whatever part of us that is ailing can be awakened by harmonious sound sources and remember at what frequency it should be vibrating. This can occur at the physical level (from cells to muscles to organs), the subtle level (changing negative psychology) and the causal level (create permanent positive changes in one’s nature). It is no accident that doctors tell us that we are in ‘sound health’ or ‘of sound mind.’ The medical profession is, to some extent, using sound therapy. For example, the application of ultrasound in the treatment of sciatica. At a higher level spiritual teachers initiate people into meditation through the sound of a mantra. Here the creation of vibration works in reverse. First there is the form (the mantra) which then it turns into a wave and finally into a pulse. What are the practical ways of using sound for healing? Listening to music, for there is no question that everyone who does is practicing sound therapy. People’s choices of listening depend on the very nature of their sound frequencies. Music is not just something that goes into the ear. It impinges on the entire bioenergetic field (aura) and if there is incompatibility with the music it will be rejected. |
