Creation and Harmonic Sound
by Ross Barrable

'In the beginning was the Word...'

The story of creation tells us, 'In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God, and by (him) was all made that was made.' Then came the command 'Let there be light...' In the beginning, matter was brought into manifestation by the action of sound and light.

"The Word or Sound Current is the creative power that emanates without ceasing from the Supreme Being, and takes us to it. It is the audible life stream or breath of God, the creative power which manifests in light and sound, the truly transformative elixir." *

Since the beginning of time, the true paths of enlightenment have taught seekers of inner truth to align themselves with the subtle vibrations of this inner sound current. "All creation in the lower world is carried out and manifest through harmonic vibrations. It rules all effects, such as wavelengths, outflows, inflows, cause and effect and the harmonics of the movement of sound." *

An aspect of this inner sound current as we experience its reflection in the outer physical world could be called full spectrum harmonic sound. From a spiritual perspective sound is the higher octave of light and the interweaving of its wave patterns can be observed within the basic structure of matter. Let us explore the use of harmonic sound and the effect it has on the world around us through the avenues of consciousness and nature.

The Universe Story
by Brian Swimme & Thomas Berry

The drumbeat and, more broadly, the songs, chants and dances of our ancestors expressed the visions and dreams awakened in them by the spirit world, by those dimensions of nature beyond the phenomenal world, but integral with materiality---the wild dimension of the Universe.

The vibrations and fluctuations in the Universe are the music that drew forth the galaxies and stars and their powers of weaving elements into life...

Our human responsibility as one voice among so many throughout the Universe is to develop our capacities to listen as incessantly as the hovering hydrogen atoms, as profoundly as our primal ancestors and their faithful descendants in today's indigenous peoples.
