What does Sound have to do with it? For those wondering, what does sound, or 'sacred sound' have to do with it? Sacred Sound transmissions is an artform Zacciah has mastered, which accelerates our ability to enter heightened or altered states of perception, or consciousness. Fundamentally, as the Ancients, and Elders would tell us, All Life thrives in Harmonic Resonance, fundamental to All Life. This is evident through the great works on Sacred Geometries, and other wisdom school teachings, which include understanding of the manner in which All Life, from microscopic, to cosmic, intertwines, and unfolds, in what the Ancients call Divine Proportions, or Harmonies. By focusing our awareness on that Harmonic Resonance, akin to All Life, under-riding All Life, supporting All Life, we can easily entrain, come into equal resonance, with that, and enter those states of what the Elders speak of, in "Harmony with All Life." The use of Sacred Sound (attuning to and voicing those states,) helps the practitioner engage in these altered states  of
consciousness, more readily. Zacciah, utilizing sacred sound initiations, or transmissions, which deepen and
strengthen the work. There are few who truly understand these techniques. When we add group intention to this, it can be even more exquisite. |
