Most
of the complimentary or
energy practices work with the vibrations within the energy system. One
form of
energy is sound. When we work with sound we work in the audible range,
sounds
that can be heard by people. Humans can hear sounds between 20 cycles
per
second (Hz) and 20,000 Hz.
Sound
therapy comes in many
forms. Music is used by most energy workers as background sound to help
relax
the client and mask other sounds. Harps, flutes, chants and drums are
also used
to aid with healing and meditation.
There
is a device that has both
very precise sound and is portable. It has been used in the medical
industry
for many years. These are tuning forks.
The
use of tuning forks in
healing and meditation reawakens one to simple and accessible energies.
Tuning
forks create a sympathetic resonance with the quality of Sacred Sound
that is
felt deep within us. The balanced interaction of frequencies resonating
in and
through the body is what makes us work. When we are healthy, our
frequencies
resonate in sync. We feel connected with ourselves and those around us.
We are
in tune.
Each
organ of the body, each
chakra, each meridian and each acupuncture point resonates to a
specific
vibration. A chakra, or any of these points, can be open and balanced
and still
out of tune. When they are out of tune problems follow.
When
physical pain, numbness or
tightness is felt the body is out of alignment with the Sacred Sound.
When the
body is out of alignment, tuning forks are used to bring the individual
back to
the Sacred Sound. Tuning forks gently guide these points back into a
harmonic
pattern.
Tuning
fork therapy works by
sending vibrations to the brain and into the body. Our nerves are
stimulated
when we listen to the vibrations of tuning forks. The nervous system
encompasses our sense of balance, proportion and space. Each component
of the
energy system has a normal vibration and always remembers it. When a
true
vibration hits one of these points the point remembers that sound and
returns
to the natural vibration.
The
root chakra, for example,
resonates to the sound of middle C, 256 cycles per second. The Earth
resonates
to 8 Hz. It is not surprising that middle C is 5 octaves above the
Earth. The
difference between using a tuning fork and a harp or piano is that a
tuning fork
is accurate to within 0.01 Hz while musical instruments very greatly,
even when
tuned.
A
harmonic tuning fork set can
be used to bring the entire chakra system back into tune. The harmonic
set
includes a middle C, D, E, F, G, A, B and high C, 512 Hz. These are the
sounds
of the Root (C), Sacral (D), Solar Plexus (E), Heart (F), Throat (G),
Third Eye
(A), Crown (B) and Transpersonal (High C).
There
are a number of methods
used to assess each chakra. One method is to use the pendulum. The
direction,
form and radius of the swing are used to determine status of each
chakra. Even
when each chakra is open, spinning clockwise and in a perfect circle
the chakra
can be out of tone.
Tuning
forks are used to bring
each chakra back to the correct tone. In the process, the fork is run
around
the rim of the chakra in a clockwise direction. When the chakra is in
tune, the
sound will be smooth.
A
chakra that is out of tune
will not be smooth. It will either present a dissidence or an uneven
resonance.
It is very unusual to get complete dissidence because as soon as the
correct
sound is presented the chakra starts to come into tune. In most cases a
chakra
will be restored to it optimal frequency within three activations of
the tuning
fork.
Once
the chakra system is back
in tune any other energy treatment that is used will be more effective
and last
longer. The chakra system is like the base of a house. If it is not
strong the
walls start to crack as everything shifts. No matter how much the walls
are
patched, as the basement shifts and settles, the cracks will reappear.
There
are other templates for
the energy system. The one we find most powerful is the Kabbalistic
Tree of
Life. In this template there are ten nodes. They are called spherah or
collectively they are the Spherot.
The
process is the same for the
Spherot as the chakra system. The tuning fork set for the Spherot has
eleven or
twelve forks. These are:
1)
Keter
– 1092 Hz
2)
Chokhmah
– 430 Hz
3)
Binah
– 187 Hz
4)
Chesed
– 982 Hz
5)
Gevurah
– 298 Hz
6)
Tferet
– 757 Hz
7)
Netzach
– 644 Hz
8)
Hod
– 870 Hz
9)
Yesod
– 320 Hz
10)
Malkut
– 532 Hz
11)
Da’at
– 1550 Hz
12)
Genesis
– 531 Hz
With
any of these practices we encourage you to take
classes. Expanding your mind is always a positive pursuit. It is said
that the
mind is like a parachute. It works best when it is opened.
