LA VIA DEL GONG

GONGING-IN THE WINDS OF CHANGE

Where the Alpha/Primal music and Omega/Space music meet is a place we call the Gong-field of total sound and tone fullness. It is a vibratory place in which omni-present pressure waves of tones nest together and crest like ocean waves. This sound field is considered to be an acoustical matrix or (healing tone) vortex, that may induce a de-materialization of the logical mind, and suspend the listener in a state of timelessness. This is what has been referred to as “the deeply healing Gong Bath.

Here, in the oceanic waters of Gong-tone, lies the quantum field of consciousness, where mere suggestion of

intention can nest within the chaos of pure potential, and when we awaken, it is with a sense of strengthened soul purpose and creative freedom of choice, ready to return to the material (outer) world renewed, energized and peaceful.
The Gong Bath has been liked to a mini-vacation, in which we become both the bubble and the sea. Mentally we disappear and reappear, and when we reappear it is like a new beginning; a fresh place of self-healing and self revelation.

A Gong Bath (also has been referred to as a Gong Meditation or Gong Savasana) usually entails some gentle movement and breath work. Then in a standing, reclining or seated position, the receivers are “bathed” in the sound of the gong, this can be achieved enmass or individually.
The sound is organic, deep and nurturing. The “living tones” build upon each other and evolve on their own, producing a sea of sound that is both timeless and alive. We not only hear the sound through our ears but through our bodies. Affecting us at the deepest cellular levels. Within this experience, tensions are released, blockages cleared, and the mind is able to stop its chattering.
Many people experiencing a Gong Bath have reported a 'release', this can take the form of an emotional, mental or physical reaction and it is the vibrations working on the energy centres within the body (Chakra's) and re-aligning them. It is regarded as a gift and those fortunate to receive it, usually experience a deep sense of wellbeing folowing the session.
We are in a period of time when, world-wide, great changes are taking place. It is said that an “initiation” of
planetary-mind is in process. This is considered to be the best time, since 6,000 years ago when the gong was discovered, that we have the opportunity to spiritualize the matters of life and make a quantum shift in humanity, as well as our individual wellbeing.
A Gong Bath is best experienced by reclining in comfortable clothes, with a soft mat and additional warm
covering, for added comfort.
