Naad Yoga

Everything that is a part of creation is vibrating at some frequency.  While a rock vibrates at a slower frequency than a sound current, it is vibrating nonetheless.  Any time that we think, speak, chant, or utter a sound, we set a new vibration into motion.  That thought, word, or sound may be a vibration of high frequency that serves to elevate us and those around us, or maybe one of a lower vibration that diminishes us and others.

Each of us has experienced the powerful impact of sound when a few well placed, cutting words can bite and have a lingering harsh effect.  Similarly, a simple kind word or two can comfort, sooth, and uplift.  The words we choose and how we communicate with ourselves and one another can elevate our spirit and those around us or, alternately, can bring us down.  We can create new beliefs and new spirit by consciously choosing to speak in an uplifting manner to others and, even more importantly, to consciously choose to speak to ourselves lovingly. 

The highest form of self-communication is chanting and the use of mantra.* Chanting is an easy tool because you can chant anywhere—out loud or silently—and change your state of being.  When we chant ancient, sacred and uplifting mantras that inherently have a higher frequency, our tongue touches the roof of the mouth in a very specific manner.  This creates a chain reaction resulting in a change in the chemical composition of the brain.  When the chemistry of the brain is balanced, our state of mind and outlook on life improves dramatically.  We simply feel better.

Conscious communication and chanting are the magic and beauty of Naad Yoga—The Science of Sound and Communication.
