One of the highest levels of tantric practice involves resonating and harmonizing oneself with sound! This is done in order to enhance and energize our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual essence. Both the Hindu and Tibetan Buddhist Tantra stress the power of sound. Sound, in fact, is the basis of much tantra—through working with advanced sound techniques, tantric practitioners are able to harmonize themselves in body, mind and spirit.

It was through our work at Healing Sounds, exploring various sonic practices from the Eastern traditions that we came upon the concept of TANTRA OF SOUND. We have discovered, through years of working together using sound, easy methods of achieving this harmonizing effect that the Eastern mystics described. This desired harmony and balance of body, mind and spirit can be both safely and efficiently practiced by utilizing specific techniques and exercises.

Our primary goal in sharing this work is to assist you in reaching deeper states of consciousness and self awareness; first with yourselves, and then, if appropriate, with a partner. We are currently at a crossroads in our evolutionary development. One road leads to an extraordinary new world of hopes and possibilities filled with love and compassion, caring and kindness. The other road does not.

This first road offers the potential of us becoming the true, extraordinary humans that so many of the mystics and spiritual teachers throughout time have suggested that we can be. In order to do so, we must indeed be able to achieve harmony and balance within ourselves and then with each other. In order to do so, we must be willing to gaze into the window of our soul, acknowledge who and what we are, and then agree to love and honor that being.

2. The Meaning of Tantra

“Tantra” is Sanskrit, the ancient language of the Hindu tradition. Like many other sacred languages such as Hebrew or Tibetan, there is frequently not simply one singular meaning that can be applied to the words which we translate. Thus “tantra” is often translated as “continuum” or “unbroken stream” and indicates a flow of consciousness from ignorance to enlightenment. The word also translates as “web” or “warp” and encompasses all that is. Tantra represents the interconnecting energies between all things in this and other planes of existence. Other words used to describe tantra are: leading principle, essential part, model, system, framework, doctrine, rule, theory, scientific work, order, chief part, rule, authority, science, mystic works, magical formulas, means, expedient, stratagem, medicine.
The etymology of “tantra” comes from the combination of two words “tattva” and “mantra”. “Tattva” is the science of cosmic principles, while “mantra” refers to the science of mystic sound and vibrations. In the Tibetan Buddhist Tradition, tantra is sometimes referred to as “Secret Mantra”. This may be to distinguish it from being confused with Western concepts of neo-tantra. A definition of the meaning of Secret Mantra from the Tibetan Buddhist standpoint is as follows: `Secret’ indicates that these methods should be practiced privately. `Mantra’ means `protection for the mind’ and often utilizes sacred sound to do this. Thus, the function of Secret Mantra is to enable us to progress swiftly through the stages of the spiritual path by protecting our mind against ordinary conceptions through the use of sound.

TANTRA.  The very word conjures up exciting images of incense filled rooms, full of throbbing bodies pulsating and vibrating in various degrees of orgasmic ecstasy.  Indeed, if you were to do an Internet search with the word “tantra”, you would find over a million and a half websites devoted to that word.  Almost all of these sites focus upon sex.  Sex is huge.  Sex sells.  We are a sex obsessed planet. And to many people, sex and tantra mean the same thing.  This, however, is simply not true.

There is great confusion today about the word tantra, and understandably so.  Depending upon the culture, tradition, viewpoint, teacher and level of awareness, “tantra” can mean different things to different people.  At healing sounds we’ve investigated numerous sources and were astounded by the variety of meanings that were applied to the word tantra and the teachings behind it.

Not surprisingly, here in the West, the meaning of tantra is almost always synonymous with sex and sexual yoga, taken from specific paths and teachers in the Hindu tradition.  Yet, in the Buddhist tradition—particularly Tibetan Buddhism, tantra has nothing to do with sex—at least not from the physical aspect of sexual relationships.

An internet search for the word tantra, which found over a million and a half websites advertising aspects of tantra, revealed that the vast majority of these sites centered upon sex.  We speculated that at least 90% - 95% of the sites we visited involved some aspect involving sexual relations—with everything from sexual aids to sexual surrogates beings advertised. Many times these sites offered techniques for improving sexual capability in sexual relationships.  Many times, however, these sites were not nearly that subtle.

Yet, in our research we also discovered sources that were of seemingly pure tantric traditions, and they were almost all adamant that tantra had little or nothing to do with sex as it is currently perceived of in the West.  In Fact, the word “neo-tantra” frequently emerged when talking about these newer perceptions of tantra which many authorities considered a corruption of the word.  What then, is tantra?  I will share the meaning of tantra in my next post.

“FREQUENCY + INTENT = HEALING”.   Frequency of course, is the actual sound used.  Healing was a term used to describe the process of putting something into its healthy resonance.  Today I use the term “Frequency Shifting”.   Intent, in this formula, is the important ingredient.  Intent is the energy  behind the sound.  It is the consciousness that is encoded into the sound.  Intent is very important.

I began to realize that it might be possible for two people to make the same sound and have a very different response, depending upon the energy that was put into the sound.   Have you ever had someone you were not particularly fond of see you at a party and say in a snake-like tone “Good to see you” and felt as though you immediately wanted to leave the party.  While the words (or the frequency) may have been one thing, the intention (or energy behind the words) said quite another.  And the effect was not one of welcoming, but rather something very different.  This is an illustration of how intentionality affects the outcome of the sound.

I found that even specific mantras would resonate different chakras, depending upon the intentionality of the person giving them.  The “Om” might resonate the heart chakra, or the belly chakra or the third eye–it all depended upon what  a spiritual master might be teaching to a person.  As I began to realize the importance of intention, I began to spend considerable time in my teachings stressing the important of this.  And at the time, it was necessary to do this.  However, I admit that I went a little overboard.  Initially I began by talking with scientists and medical doctors who were so interested in examining only the frequency of the sound that the idea of intention was a new (and somewhat ridiculous idea to them).  Nevertheless, I continued sharing the importance of intention in my workshops, lectures and writing.  And as usual, things got a little out of alignment.  People began to think “Well, it doesn’t matter what sound I make as long as my intention is there”.

On one level, this is true.  On another level, it is not.  The formula which I was given was “FREQUENCY + INTENT = HEALING”.   This formula was created for the 3rd Dimensional Earth plane as it is currently evolved in your time and space.  While it is true that in higher dimensionalities, Intent (and consciousness) does create all, very few beings on this planet have reached the level of development,  where the actual sound they create is unimportant and the intention is everything.

Now undoubtedly, there are spiritual masters on this planet who can belch or create any such sound and produce miraculous results.  However, a majority of you (while you may perceive you are spiritual masters, and you may be) have not reached the state of development where you can do this.    I illustrate this point by saying that if you wish to calm someone down with a sound and then you shout in their ear, the result will be that your shouting will undoubtedly produce severe reactions of agitation in the individuals.  Their heart beat, respiration and brain waves will all escalate and they will probably not enjoy your shouting in their ear, regardless of your intent.  So I say that until you can levitate or dematerialize or do any of a number of frequency shifting exercises that you will ultimately be able to do, we urge you to pay attention to the frequencies that you are using.  As well as the intentionality that you are putting into these frequencies.

Dr. Leonard G. Horowitz is an internationally known authority in the overlapping fields of public health, behavioral science, emerging diseases, and natural healing. Dr. Horowitz received his doctorate from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine and has taught at Harvard School of Dental Medicine. His published works several American best-sellers: Emerging Viruses: AIDS & Ebola-Nature, Accident or Intentional?, Healing Celebrations: Miraculous Recoveries Through Ancient Scripture, Natural Medicine and Modern Science, and DNA: Pirates of the Sacred Spiral. In the field of sound, Len’s contribution to Healing Codes for the Biological Apocalypse introduced the concept of an ancient series of solfeggio frequencies. I have worked with Dr. Horowitz with regard to these frequencies, which have manifested on my recordings of “Holy Harmony” and “Waves of Light”. For more information about Dr. Horowitz visit his official website.

In addition to his other work, Len has been engaged in the creation of a worldwide sound event, H2O: Concert for the Living Water. This will be a week-end long event taking place over the Summer Solstice Week-end, This 72 hour educational, musical, and multi-cultural event also features an unprecedented interactive Internet broadcast that will engage a chorus of 144,000 voices united to advanced the cause of lasting peace on earth, world health, and universal prosperity. This Global Sound Healing event will culminate on June 21st at 5 PM Pacific Time with a Global Tone of Healing and Love directed into the oceans, lakes, rivers and streams fo the world. This powerful prayer and chant begins with a 9 minute global chorus, then make sits way westward around the word, joined by representatives from all major religions and Native cultures. For more information on this “Love Water Experiment”, please click on Live H20.

Len is a fascinating speaker. Among the topics we’ll talk about are sacred sound, the solfeggio frequencies, the effects of sound on water, the power of intentionalized sound to shift global consciousness and much more.

I know this June 10th show with Dr. Len Horowitz will be an extraordinary experience that you won’t want to miss.

Please tune in June 10th for this extraordinary show. And please join us on for the H2O Concert for the Living Water- especially at 5 PM Pacific Time.

Many new spiritual scientists, discoverers and therapists are working with the concept of resonant frequency healing to create balance.  Many are successful.   They have developed different instruments, machines, tapes and other sound devices which project the healthy resonant frequency of a body part, (or, for the matter, of the chakras) into a person.

While some of these devices may be very effective for restoring resonance back to that which is vibrating out of harmony, you all have within yourselves the most powerful, effective and wondrous device for healing that you can imagine.  It is free, extremely efficient and it does not require batteries or electricity.  It is your own voice.  Your own, if we may, God given instrument for sound healing.  It requires only a little training to use,  does not require another operator to be applied, and it allows you to find the exact frequencies for resonance.  This does not happen with many of sound healing devices which are “locked into” specific sounds for specific parts.  This does not allow for frequency shifting, which is the change of the vibratory rate of either a part of the body, or the whole body and its associated energy centers as well.

Hospitals and medical centers are full of many devices that project sound and other vibrations.  We now have catalogs full of devices that you can use in your home to induce meditation and what not.  Many of new researchers have developed sound devices that project different frequencies into you for different effects.  They are useful and sometimes very fun and we encourage them.  However, it is important to realize that they are merely tools producing an effect.  And this effect can be achieved without them if you are interested in doing a little work on yourself.  What is most interesting, however,  is that while many of these sound devices and recordings do create positive change, the actual frequencies or notes that they use are not the same.

To illustrate this, let us discuss your chakras for the moment.  They are these spinning discs  that feed energy into what becomes the physical body.    When I was first researching this area many years ago, I came across a simple system that worked with the 7 chakras using the seven notes of the C major scale.  In this system, your root chakra was vibrating to the note “C”.  The next chakra resonated to the note “D”.  The next chakra to the note “E” and so on,  with the crown chakra vibrating to the note “B”.  It was a very easy system and I was quite pleased to find this.  However, as I continued with my investigation into this, I found many other systems that worked with many different notes besides these.

The variety of different notes that was used was quite extraordinary.  And none of them was in agreement.  This caused me some perplexity as he could not understand how all the different systems were not in agreement with each other and yet all of them seemed to work to some degree.  Then I developed a formula which he first put forth in his book HEALING SOUNDS.

The formula is this: FREQUENCY + INTENT = HEALING.

In my next post I will talk more about this formula.

Harmonics are there and yet not there, tangible and yet not tangible. 
They are present and yet not noticed, until the shift begins to occur. 
First our hearing changes - we can perceive things that are hidden. 
Next, our voices change - we can create sounds that were not previously
there.  Then, our consciousness changes and other realities come into
our awareness.

Sound healing focuses on the ability of harmonics to create vibrational
changes.  These changes may occur in the physical body or in the
mental, emotional and etheric bodies.  When these changes occur, they
initiate transformation and healing.  

Harmonics display universal principles and are a constant in the
various traditions and societies that use sound for healing and self
-transformation.  Through experiencing harmonics, we can learn a great
deal about ourselves and the worlds around us.  I trust they will
awaken something in you.  They can be sacred, magical and truly
transformational.  I trust that in time you will ‘read between the
lines’ and see the possibilities are described in this book.  I trust
you will discover the other potentials yourself.

Harmonics have been and always will be a great inspiration to me.  It
is now apparent that many others also share this interest.  Since the
completion of this book, there continues to be a tremendous reawakening
of interest in sound as a healing and transformative modality.  In
particular, a large portion of this interest has focused upon
harmonics.  Awareness and use of harmonics are truly expanding.  This
would not have occurred without the openness of the masters of vocal
harmonics:  the Tibetans, Mongolians and Tuvans.

Members of the different Tibetan monasteries have toured throughout the
United States and Europe, sharing their sacred chants and much of their
knowledge of Tibetian overtone chanting.

1. We Are Connected Through Sound

In many different traditions and cultures of this planet, our connection to source is through sound. ‘In the beginning was the Word.’ The sound! The harmonics. This understanding is both spiritual and scientific. Everything is in a state of vibration.

Everything is frequency. Sound can change molecular structure. It can create form. We realize the potential of sonic energy; we understand that virtually anything can be accomplished through vibration. Then the miraculous seems possible. Through practice and experience with sacred intent, we can learn to shift our own frequencies using harmonics. These sounds can resonate our body, our brain and our etheric fields. We can change our vibrational rate through our own self-generated sounds.

These sacred sounds, made with a specific intention, and with the energy of love, can interface with the different planes of consciousness, invoking and evoking different levels of awareness. This is particularly true when harmonics are made with conscious intention in a group.

Group Sounds

One of the most powerful ways of consciously using vocal harmonics and overtoning is to create a sacred sound together in a group. Sounding in a group can create a morphic field resonance through a unified consciousness. Fields created through group sounding have potentials far greater than we’ve dreamed. On our own, we can consciously interface and effect our own vibratory levels.

In groups, sacred sound can influence not only ourselves and those around us, but can adjust the planet to a new level of consciousness. It is the throwing of a tiny pebble into a still lake. The ripples and waves created by the grow in size and strength and reach to the farthest ends of the lake. This rediscovery of our own ability to shift frequencies through harmonics is a gift that we are given.
