chakras, mantras, unclear,
By Patrick Byrne "Shanti Monk" (Richmond, BC Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tibetan Sound Healing [With CD] (Hardcover)
This book confuses me! First the author speaks about the "three columns" and gives them colors, as well as stating that they start just below the navel. These three channels are basically in the ethric body and rise from the Mulkadhara chakra at the lowest point to the highest chakras in the head: the lunar ida on the left, the solar pingala on the right, and the shushumna up the middle of the spinal column. These are clearly represented by the staff of Hermes with the seven joints as in a bamboo stalk, and the two serpent-like channels coiling around the staff. I truly do not understand what the author has invented. The three column are very clearly portrayed in esoteric science, in Buddhism and in many writings of true spiritual masters. Also the "sounds" confuse me because there are SEVEN mantras that are sounded to awaken the chakras. Also the Dza of this author is related to a mantra Ham Sah in which the Sah strongly sounded by air forced out of the lungs (as he does state). Here I don't know why it is standing alone. Also, the "A" is one of the SEVEN major mantras (i, e, o, u, a, m, s) and simply refers to the mantra for developing the pulmonary chakras so that the practicioner may remember past lives. Also, the "A" is usually associated with the mantra AOM (AUM) that is used to draw spiritual light into our solar plexus. I just find that this author has complicated aspects of esoteric science unnecesarily and could serve to confuse unwary and unknowledgable readers. Can only rate this a one.

Tibetan Sounds for Life,
By Bernard A. Silvers "meditation devotee" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Tibetan Sound Healing [With CD] (Hardcover)
Since I bought this item I have used it often for meditation and found it extremely helpful. It is easy to follow, it shuts off the thinking mind and there is a refreshed feeling afterwards. I had several friends listen to the CD and they were delighted with it. They have now decided to get it and to use it as their main meditation method. When I bought it even though I have meditated for years I knew nothing about the chakras. This gives one an experiential understanding of the chakras and helps one to open oneself up to the special experience. I absolutely recommend it for the beginner or the advanced meditation student.

This book teaches an active form of Tibetan healing with sound meditation,
By Morgan Henderson - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Tibetan Sound Healing [With CD] (Hardcover)
One can use the "Five Warrior Syllable" sounds and other sound meditation techniques taught in this book-with-CD for healing, to clear internal blocks your life,and to manifest realistic action steps to create change in your life.By doing this daily practice, spiritual life and daily life are not kept separate, but form one transparent circle of doing and being. I am new at practicing this active meditation, using the instructions in the book-and-audio CD (included), supported by my teacher Gabriel Rocco, a senior student of Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche. I find this daily practice powerful for me in making concrete action changes in the way I live my life, and healing (not curing) my experience with cancer. You do not have to be Buddhist to understand or make use of the valuable sound meditation practice. The author is a teacher in the Bon tradition of Buddhism, with a Center near Charlottesville, Virginia. They offer teaching workshops. 35 of 35 people found the following review helpful

Powerful but simple sound healing tools for everyone,
By Rinda M. Payne - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Tibetan Sound Healing [With CD] (Hardcover)
Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche invites the reader into the realm of sound healing in the Tibetan Bon Buddhist tradition via the Five Warrior Syllables and the Tsa Lung Exercises. The combination of text and CD meditations aid the reader, especially one new to sound healing, to readily duplicate the sacred sounds while visualizing the intended effects of the sounds. The sounding of the Five Warrior Syllables in conjunction with their accompanying meditations aims straight at one's inner core and energetic channels. Their use clears mental, emotional and physical blockages and opens the energetic channels. As a result, one's true inner nature reveals itself and at the same time impacts the world at large. These Tibetan Bon seed syllables are powerful but simple tools to include in an ongoing sound healing practice or for introducing beginners to the healing benefits of incorporating sound into their daily life.
