I had an experience when learning to sing up the chakras. It was a class given with about 50 people present. As we intoned a syllable for each chakra together, I heard a high pitched hum. I thought nothing of it. I had heard this many times before. I thought when people sang like that, it just made everything vibrate and that was what I was hearing. The person leading the class called it harmonics. Then I happened across this article in The Hartford Advocate. I like the reporter's honest commentary. :)
[quote]Harmony can get pretty spooky. If you don't mind gross oversimplifications, you can say it happens when the vibrations of different frequencies match up to make a new frequency appear. The late musician John Phillips, from the Mamas and the Papas, described in his autobiography how sometimes, when he and his three bandmates sang together just so, they'd hear what they dubbed the "Fifth Voice." The band stumbled upon the right harmony even if they didn't know what to call it. Theologians in medieval Europe debated whether these extra voices came from angels or demons. But at the Connecticut Eck Temple in Middlefield, there's no question: it's the voice of the divine.
...As a journalist it is my responsibility to attend events and report what happened. Here's my summary of the Eckankar Soul Travel seminar: I understood nothing.
