Musical Medicine Series: Lecture #2

Musical Medicine Series: Lecture #2
Exploring the Musical Wisdom of Ancient Cultures
Thursday, December 3 @ 7:30 pm
(Saint Paul University Amphitheatre, $12 at the door)


The Musicial Medicine Series comprises 9 talks on the science of sound healing. The opening lecture, "The Cosmic Symphony" provided a big picture framework for the entire series. Lecture 2 delves into the music of ancient cultures. Over the last few decades, the field of sound-musical healing has become increasingly validated in diverse professional disciplines as people begin to recognize the amazing transformative properties of sound. This re-emerging musical wisdom was grasped more than 2000 years from cultures who understood the importance of linking their musical activities with cosmic harmonies according to systematic sonic principles.

Should music have the capacity to influence human morality? Does a culture's music impact the behaviour of its society or does society constrain its musical development? What is a
musical physician? To find out the answers to these and other psycho-musical questions, come join us for an edutaining (entertaining and educational) evening as we probe the musical wisdom of ancient cultures as diverse India, Greece, and China.

NOTE: This event requires advanced registration. Please contactsacred@sympatico.cato reserve your space.

BLISSFUL KIRTAN - SAT 5 DEC 09

HONOUR YOUR SELF!
CELEBRATE YOUR SELF!
Manifest your Divinity!!!

Our true nature is 'blissful', but, due to the incessant vagaries of the mind, we seldom experience sustained periods of this natural state of Being. It is not an elusive, transcendental condition attained only by sages who are great yogis/yoginis and master meditators. In fact, it is not something to be achieved, for that is what we truly are! Sat - Chid - Ananda... Truth - Consciousness - Bliss. BLISS lies dormant at the core of our very essence, which is Divine! Devotional chanting is a way of awakening and sustaining the remembrance of our own Divinity, of our inner inexhaustible source of Peace, Love and Bliss. It is an effortless expression of Bhakti Yoga in its simplest form of prayer and devotional chanting. It is the Path of the Heart that gently removes all obstacles to the manifestation of one's Higher Self.
-----------
Join us this weekend in an intimate setting, for a couple
of hours of blissful chanting and remembrance of
our true identity in the Divine.
-----------
All voices and instruments are welcome.
Please bring a cushion/pillow!
-----------
Refreshments and snacks will be served afterwards.

The Cosmic Symphony
a presentation by Daniel

Thursday, November 12 @ 7:00 pm


During this 1.5 hr presentation, we examine the marvelous musical wisdom of three ancient cultures: Greece, India, China, and the concept of the musical physician. Such cultures understood the importance of harmonizing their societies music with cosmic realms.

"Musical Physicians & The Music of Ancient Cultures," the second in a series of nine exciting lectures on the science of music therapy and sound healing: this presentation serves as a conceptual framework for the entire Musical Medicine Series (planned for 2009 & 2010). During our extended musical journey, we will uncover some intriguing information relating music, mind and matter.

Amazingly, the principles underlying sound/musical healing appear to be mirrored in the physical fabric of the universe at many levels. These musical-universal correspondences capture a wide range of phenomena including:
planetary sound vibrations, sacred geometry, harmonics, animal sounds, holography, and musical molecules.

John Orr - Master Healer, Shamanic Teacher

john orr bowls

Introduction to John Orr

Nearly 30 years ago, a radical shift in consciousness occurred in John Orr’s life. His “Ego” crossed the bridge of illusion and he discovered that there is not death on the subtle, psychic and soul level. Several natural gifts and latent talents unfolded as he started to observe reality in a new way. All his psychic senses explored the plants, the minerals and the animal kingdom.

He further developed and practised his newly acquired abilities all over Europe, Asia and America and investigated the field of quartz crystals. He travelled and received several initiations in England, India (Himalayas), Peru (Lake Titikaka), Bolivia and Hawaii. He has encountered special beings on different planes of awareness and has been deeply touched by the Native Aboriginal traditions of North America.

In January, 1987, he graduated as a specialist from the School of Natural Therapeutics in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He visited many sacred sites and experienced their energies and wisdom. He acknowledges humans as innate clairvoyants and healers and his dream is to bring the feeling of Earth and the Stars in a way to harmonize and bring peace and joy in the hearts of mind of mankind.

John Sage

Areas of Wisdom and Knowledge

1. Psychic – Soul reading, spiritual intersession (Christ and Beings connected to him). Ego unwinding, clairvoyance and mediumship (dealing with entities, spirits, astral, elementals, devas). Karmic exorcism (curses, spells, implants, abductions…), past life regression, chakras, psychology (and readings prior to psychic healing), aura cleansing, rebalancing, psycho-emotional and karmic release, dowsing, pendulum, raja pranayama (breathing for brainwaves) and mudras (balancing the elements of the body).

2. Natural Therapeutics – Vibrational medicine, nutrition, counselling, reflexology, polarity, craniosacral therapy (Tibetan Source). Also trained in body massage, shiatsu, herbs, Bach remedies, flower essences, gem elixirs and aromatherapy.

3. Crystal Tuning - Crystal reading, scrying, landscapting (Atlantean Source), meditation, chakra balancing and awakening, etheric operation, crystal grid systems for plants and humans, harmonics in stones, gems, and color crystal therapy.

4. Communications – with plants, minerals, animals, spirits, angels and devas. Communication with the Divine Source Within.

John is a man from the Stars, a man of incredible discipline, humour and wisdom. In everything he does, he is purposeful, yet flexible and detached. He speaks strongly about instinct, the importance of healing the brain, past lives, and karma. John is present in every moment. He is excellent at soul retrieval and teaches people in a manner that they learn to do for themselves which is empowering and fun. He can transform from a fun little boy to a wise old man in 2 seconds. He can be called “the Dr Phil” of psychics as he goes “right to the problem”, "a sharp shooter". John lives a very humble life, but does so in a very disciplined way, following spirit every single moment. It is often difficult to describe him as “you have to meet him to know what we mean”. There is no other clairvoyant, healer out there like him.

Sound Workshop:

John's workshop style is quite different than most clairvoyants'. He is completely spontaneous! Often there is a topic, but he will always ask the group what they would like to explore for the workshop. "Be selfish" he says, "tell me what you want". If there is something you'd like to discuss or have questions about, please let him know. After that, the workshop is fun, informational and experiential. He empowers participants to do for themselves with his guidance, wisdom and teaching. For sure, no two workshops could be alike, it is the participants that mould and shape the session.

One to one sessions - John wants people to know what is involved in a session. It is not called a healing session, although some people say that they have had healing experiences. It is not a psychic reading, energetic work, or run of the mill reading where you go to find out about money, romance etc. John clears the chakras and the aura. Some people who couldn't sleep, could sleep afterwards, one person who had seizures, stopped. Often he will find a past life piece which relates to the problem, but this is not an absolute. Please be clear on what you want at the beginning of the session. It is 1 1/2 hours long, if it goes longer you may get charged more, so be clear about what you want. Bring your questions with you. Remember that he goes right to the problem and be prepared for the truth. John will and can clear many things that other clairvoyants may not, he specializes in clearing "bad medicine" and other dark things from a person.

The Song of the Goddess Sonic Journey



The Song of the Goddess is a intuitive sonic journey guided by Tanya Nash. Her voice and Deva's Gift Quartz Crystal Bowl will create a sacred space for us to experience the power, grace and beauty resonating inside of each one of us. In this space of presence, karmas dissolve and we can rediscover our Love for ourselves. All are welcome to listen, relax and be!
