Examination: Subject of Choice by Tara Leigh for Fred Busch
“Vibration is a consistent, repeated,
rhythmic pattern of movement. Vibration is the essence of all matter, energy and
consciousness. Vibration is the basic emanation from which all matter, energy
and consciousness is created. All vibrations are a “wave-form, with
oscillations per unit of time, called frequency” Wheels of Life: A User's Guide

Health is the reason I originally sought out yoga. I am
drawn to the way yoga creates a sense of calm in my body. I was initially drawn
to the way yoga healed me using nothing more then my body; working simply with
all that I am and nothing more.
I am identifying most with unspoken relationships between
healing and the benefits of the breath in yoga. This however has opened my
conscience to so many questions. I have become aware and I am interested in the
sense of vibrations and frequencies that we submit, receive, transmit and create
ourselves. “Vibes” as we so commonly call them.
Here, in this paper, I
would like to examine the interaction between vibrations and frequency with our
body. How are they stimulated to benefit
our health through yoga? To be even more specific, I would like to talk in this
section specifically about each individual’s unique absorption of vibrations
and frequency through the “aura”.
At some point in an individual's evolution through age and
experience, we come to the realisation that we are made of more than just
our physical body. We begin to understand that there is more to the world than
meets the eye.
So lets define what is an aura.
According to http://www.thefreedictionary.com/aura the aura is defined as:
au·ra (ôrn. pl. au·ras or au·rae (ôr) An invisible breath,
emanation, or radiation. A distinctive air or quality considered to be
characteristic of a person or thing 2. any invisible emanation, such as a scent
or odor 3. (Medicine / Pathology) Pathol strange sensations, such as noises in
the ears or flashes of light, that immediately precede an attack, esp of
epilepsy 4. (Spirituality, New Age, Astrology & Self-help / Alternative
Belief Systems) (in parapsychology) an invisible emanation produced by and surrounding
a person or object: alleged to be discernible by individuals of supernormal
sensibility.
So what is
the relationship between each person’s aura and vibrations and frequencies? Vibrations
and frequencies create an aura. The aura is a reflection of our personal
electromagnetic field. This part of our energy field is a projection of the
vibratory rates emitted by our body. We display thoughts and emotions on a
conscious and unconscious level to our aura. It
reflects the energies of not only our physical condition but our psychological
condition.
The aura gives information
on the energetic state of cells, organs & meridians. Each colour frequency
is an indicator for the condition of the immunity level. If an organ’s vitality
gets imbalanced, the power of the immunity gets out of balance. It then has the
potential to go into resonance with viruses, bacteria & parasites. If the
energetic balance or homeostasis is restored then the viruses, bacteria &
parasites disappear because they lose their energetic nutrient medium. There is
no good or bad aura, just a momentary energy situation.
“Thoughts are an actual vibration within our
aura, which is created by our mental body, but they are vibrations that we can
control. This interactive relation of the aura has the result that negative
thought can manifest in the material body as pain or disease.” Understanding how your Aura affects
EVERYTHING by Shauna Adsitt
We have a
choice when negative thoughts come up, we can choose to continue to spiral down
and lower our energy field or release the negative thought and choose to flip
it to a more healthy & positive outcome. Can you imagine what a better
world we would live in when more people realise that with some patience we can
succeed in becoming the master of our thoughts?
In sahaja
yoga, vibrations are emitted from our body when our kundilini rises to
sahasrara. The extent of vibrations could be felt. It is documenting that the aura is a part of
the ten bodies of light model, on which yoga numerology and master number analysis
is based, and it is the sum total of your nerve strength and bio-electric
energy. It plays a subtle but important role in your life, as the aura
spontaneously affects and influences others who come within its reach. Therefore,
a person with a clear, powerful aura would be very charming and magnetic, and
able to mesmerize others with their simple presence and being. In
addition, the aura is like a shield against negative energies and unknown forces,
which may wish to influence or harm you. So how can we use yoga, meditation and sound
frequencies to protect our aura?
With yoga we can first strengthen the aura on
a physical level using the frequency of our breath to move us through. Clearing and developing the power of one’s
aura and magnetic field is an important aspect of yoga in general. There are
many wonderful asanas (exercises) to accomplish this, such as Eagle Pose for a powerful aura. In other
practices of yoga the Kundalini Yoga techniques (which are designed to clear
the aura) almost always have a vigorous breathing pattern associated with
them. This technique is again in line with this approach, and uses the
powerful Breath of Fire breathing exercise
to maximize its purification powers. Other ways to affect the aura through yoga
and the use of vibrations and frequencies to affect our cellular signals is through chanting/ meditation
and props such as the Tibetan singing bowls.
Chanting, pranayama breathing, metitation and the Tibetan singing bowls may be used for healing and auric alignment
by using specific vibration notes as related to the Seven Chakra system
referenced in the practice of yoga. When put into practice the aura picks up
these frequencies and vibrations as “Healing Vibrations”.
In theory it is the vibration of the melody
and the words that enter our being through our ears, through our whole body and
our mind, which heal us. When applying with such frequencies and
vibrations to our situation we can affect our emotions positively, boost our
immune system to ensure good health, and balance our metabolism. Certain noise
levels can significantly affect your digestive system as well, per research
conducted on people studying the
effects of urban noise on the body and brain.
Mantra Yoga and Primal Sound: Secret of Seed (Bija) by Dr. David Frawley, speaks
about the use of ancient wisdom traditions with a symphony of vibrational
frequencies. In this beautiful, comprehensive, and unique work, the author
elaborates the essential truths about cosmic sound, and how we can incorporate important
mantras for healing, transformation and inner awakening through the aura.
In Govinda Kai’s article Yoga and Sound he
asks “Why is sound so important to the practice of yoga?” then answering “All reality, both spiritual and material is
composed of different levels of vibrations or frequencies.” Sound is simply a
form of vibration. As such, it has a very strong effect on not only the mind,
but on reality itself. “The ancient sages of India discovered through great
wisdom and experience that there are many different kinds and levels of sound.
They discovered that these different kinds of sounds produced profound effects
on the psycho-spiritual makeup of the mind and life of man.”
Any sound or any spoken word has a certain
energy, vibration, or frequency, that either agrees or disagrees with our
bodies. In yoga, chanting is used at the beginning and end of yoga
classes with the chant of “OM”. “When [we] chant OM, let it vibrate on the
solar plexus. All the power of creation, the whole universe is present deep
inside you. Let it vibrate in each cell of your body.” - Swami
Vishwananda
An
interview with Christina King taken from
the Drew Mariani Show aired on Relevant Radio Studies focused on
a group of Monks that practiced Gregorian Chant, suggested that its use can and
does alleviate fatigue, depression, and illness because of the hertz ranges
(around 8000) and vibration patterns of the sounds. Gregorian chants creates a harmonic
vibration that has been proven in studies to eliminate fatigue, heal and cure
disease and illness, extinguish depression and enable the person who sings
Gregorian chant to stimulate the part of the cerebral cortex through creating a
separate vibration with our bones at a completely different vibration and hertz
level that, when the cranium and skull vibrate at this frequency, acts like a
magnifier as the bones of the head amplify the vibration affecting the brain at
an even more magnified capacity.
Using frequency for healing consists of
either disrupting unwanted frequency, such as those of a virus or bacteria, or
by amplifying healthy frequencies. Disrupting unwanted frequency occurs
similarly to the way an opera singer breaks a glass. The glass resonates to a particular tone; amplifying that tone
beyond the level of energy the glass can absorb causes it to shatter. The
same can be done with bacteria and virus by bombarding them with amplitude of
resonant frequency beyond their ability to absorb. On the other
hand, providing the desired frequency at the desired amplitude can support
optimal health. When the body resonates with this frequency it creates
the optimal conditions for health. The use of frequency for healing is the
current cutting edge of alternative health modalities. (FREQUENCY
HEALING Overview and History Dr. Synthia Andrews, ND)
In this examination of yoga and the aura in
it’s relationship with vibrations and frequencies I have come to learn that every
living being is made up of its own vibrant energy. Through yoga,
chanting, meditation (and meditation vibrational sound tools) we can enhance
our healing and rejuvenation. Through our auras, we ourselves are very much
like “big batteries”. Energy can flow through us. We can become charged
and we can discharge and we can empower others.
