All sounds come out of the gong sound. It is the resonant vibration
that holds the whole of the universe together. The gong is
extremely powerful, it’s putting heaven right here on earth. Your
body will go into a deep state of relaxation which will allow it to
heal, rejuvenate and revitalize. It allows the mind to come to a
sense of clarity and neutrality where it can start to really appreciate
the possibilities of it’s own potential. The gong has a resound
sound. This is the sound that is continuous, perpetual and endless.
Gongs work wonderfully well with opening vast meditate states and
are very effective in changing people’s consciousness. The sound of
the gong allows us to move beyond the boundaries of the mind. We
have used our mind since birth to perceive the world and through
our mind we have constructed our own unique version of reality.
Over time we have become habituated with a set of perceptual
responses to the incoming data from the world outside our mind.
These responses layer and layer upon each other and build up their
own magnetic frequency. This magnetic frequency then radiates
out from us and attracts similar frequencies. Like attracts Like.
This is why the change process can and is so difficult. If you are
not attracting into your life, abundance, joy, balance, calm and
peace then it’s time to change your frequency and vibration. We
can add information, we can read and learn new things.,we can add
knowledge, we think we know more, and we do. But do we really
change? Our energetic being remains the same. Our basic
magnetic frequency and our layered perceptual filters process the
new information in the old habitual ways. New information does not
always change us. An energetic shift of our magnetic field
CHANGES us.
The universe is powered by sound. The gong is the basic creative
sound. Out of the gong comes all music, all sounds, all words. The
sound of the gong is the nucleus of the word. The gong is the first
and last instrument for the human mind. It is the one thing that
supersedes the mind. The mind has no power before the gong. It
takes three to ninety seconds for the sound of the gong to overtake
the mind. Then we relax and begin to release old outdated
patterns. We become free of the conditioned habitual patterns of
the mind. Regular listening to the gong will re-pattern your
magnetic field, open you to the vastness of your own psyche, and
release you from all that prevents you from living a life of complete
and utter happiness. Within this creative cosmic flow we find
fulfillment, harmony and love.
The sound of the gong reaches the body on a cellular level,
encouraging integrated healing of body, mind, and spirit, and the
more gong sessions a student attends, the better the
results. (There is one caveat when it comes to the gong: Once you
enter the gong’s healing sound orbit, you may never want to leave!)
Students often report that they feel peaceful and restored after a
gong session. The gong is said to be “truly the instrument of the
yogi. It’s a deeply meditative experience.
