Buddha nature pervades the whole universe
existing right here, right now
I dedicate the merit of this practice to all sentient beings
together we realize liberation...(adyashanti)
Halleluja.
noticing how much more open my voice is later in the day, after doing a workshop that i did a little toning and chanting at when singing higher notes, my jaw gets more tense
the first half of my vocal meditation practice consisted of chanting a medicine melody that i don't actually know the words to because its in another language i am not familiar with... so i just sang the sounds like i remember them. i changed my shruti box today to b flat. days 1 and 2 were to c major and g (perfect 5th). the perfect 5th created a sound spiral vortex which is the same auditory version of the spiral found almost everywhere in nature, called the golden mean, or fibonacci sequence. when we consistently play or sing the c and g together we come into more coherent resonance with our natural vibration and into alignment with right path. one of my teachers, John Beaulieu, teaches this thoroughly in his trainings. his tuning forks tuned to certain octavized notes of c and g have a profound calming affect on the nervous system and can immediately center and ground the nervous system in an immediate way. i have not experienced anything more effective than his tuning forks. http://www.biosonics.com/
He says that you can tune the body just like you can tune any instrument. when you are tuned you are living from a higher functioning vibration and from this place we can be more authentic and be able to course correct more effectively when we come up against challenges and adversity. i have also found this to be true. being soaked in the sounds of the perfect 5th i am able to hold my own frequency with more clarity of my own boundaries, feeling the sense of being a differentiated human being in relation to others that i come into contact with all day long.
