Love’s Triangle
possible to listen to plants’ symphonies. And they are all different, authentic. That is pretty amazing.
No less amazing though, than the fact that there isn’t a single person on this earth, neither in the past, the present, or the future, that is similar to you. And just like plants are made of cells that are made of molecules that create their own unique melody, so does your body.
Simple logic: Plants sing. Plants are made up of living cells which are made up of molecules. So their molecules and cells sing.
Water exposed to harmonious sounds, water droplets take on the shape of mandalas. You are 80% water. Therefore 80% of you becomes mandalas.
It is safe to conclude then that if 80% of you becomes mandalas, you become a mandala.
You might have heard of the Mozart Effect, or the fact that plants and animals are positively influenced by harmonious music.
Sound is vibration and rhythm. From its source it travels through the various media to reach our ears, our skin, and penetrates our bodies. And the rhythm combines with the rhythms that keep us alive, like breathing, heart-beat, brainwaves, not to mention sleep rhythms and digestive rhythms. Well, there you have it. Sing, chant, or even hum – as explained in the book The Humming Effect – it creates healing and wellness. It tunes into the rhythms that are subconsciously directly connected to our connection with life energy: heartbeat and breathing. You can think of sound as an essential nutrient.
In chanting we charge sound with words that are symbols, manifestations of energies expressed by different deities. They can express compassion, transformation, freedom, motherhood, generosity, embrace, devotion, and so on. Those symbols are charged with positive, healing feelings. And we know that feelings imbued with healing resonance fulfill every creature’s most basic pursuit in life: the pursuit of joy, happiness, delight. So don’t just sing in the shower. Find opportunity to sing and chant. Sound is earth bound.
And that’s a good thing.
