Rob Roy: I hear music in any of the planes. The music is simpler and more upbeat in F27.
In the lower astral, it can be discordant and almost scary sounding.

Tim: I haven't recorded notes, but usually just sing them into my computer. If you want
I can PM links to some of my tunes.

I heard a really funny gospel-like tune a few weeks back in F27 or upper astral. You know
the song "Can't hurry love" by the Supremes and Phil Collins. Well,
it was sung by a woman, with almost the same words: "You can't hurry love, you just
have to wait... That's what Momma says" Well, instead of the last
line, she sang "That's what Jesus says" (I'm not Christian, either)

Turns out when I looked up the song on the web, it originally
started out as a gospel tune but with a different religious twist... something
like "You can't hurry G-d..."

Hi All,

I wanted to share one of the strangest experiences I had on the way to work the other day.  As I was driving I was listening to a concert piece in the recesses of my mind.  I never play my car radio while driving because I'd rather be with my thoughts. It was a very complex piece and almost recognizable, then it change to a more famliar piece, which at the time, I mentioned the title to myself.  Then the other piece came back on. I really enjoyed the private little concert for at least 5 miles and had the sensation that I was sort of in a slightly altered/relaxed state yet still had all faculties to contiue driving.  I questioned where the music could be coming from and it seemed to resonate from inside my head rather than my ears.  Usually I only have words with music backup that come to me in certain situations or environments. For example while driving on this same stretch of road on past occassions I pass some mountains that remind me of the pyramids I visited in Egypt and I hear the song: "See the pyramids along the Nile..."  or "Take this job and shove it" when I've hit tilt at work.  But this sounded almost unworldly or possibly from another plane. It was a freebe with no message or reminder except to sit back and enjoy.  And I did.

Always new delights being offerred!  Funny world.

Love, Jean

   I used to be a member of Eckankar back in 1983. As I recall, it was Darwin Gross (Paul Twitchell's temporary successor) who was a strong proponent of blues music. He even had his own band and published at least 2 albums. Paul Twitchell was more into the classical music, like Beethoven, Mozart, and Brahms. He said that any melodic music was good and spiritual, while discordant music was negative and destructive.
   I myself prefer non-discordant symphonic classical and instrumental new age, especially if nature sounds are included. Blues and other light jazz is good too.
   Paul Twitchell also taught about what sounds were associated with each plane. These are:

1. Physical          =  thunder
2. Astral              =  roar of the sea
3. Causal            =  tinkle of bells
4. Mental             =  running water
4.5 Etheric           =  buzzing of bees
5. Soul                =  single note of flute
6. Alakh Lok        =  heavy wind
7. Alaya Lok        =  deep humming
8. Hukikat Lok      =  thousand violins
9. Agam Lok        =  music of the woodwinds
10. Anami Lok       =  sound of a whirlpool
11. Sugmad World =  music of universe
12. Sugmad          =  music of God

   I later learned that Eckankar is mostly based upon the plagiarized teachings of Kirpal Singh, one of the master teachers of Sant Mat surat shabd yoga, who Paul Twitchell studied under before starting his own religion of light and sound. By the way, they both taught Soul travel, not out-of-body travel.

Hello Spooky,

   I do have some good music selections that I think you may be interested in. The first is a cd called "Mountain Magic" by Nature Quest. Here is the link for Amozon http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0001IMH7K/104-5676754-1393500?v=glance&n=5174
I think it is the best cd I ever heard combining nature sounds with music.
   There is a great cd set that I have and love to listen to called "Between The Sea And The Sky" (Reflections on Native Meditations). It consists of 5 cd's - "The Bear", "The Eagle", "The Raven", The Whale" and "The Wolf". Here is a link to CD Universe http://www.cduniverse.com/search/xx/music/pid/5812896/a/Between+The+Sea+&+The+Sk...
   Another good one is "New Age Loon" by NorthSound. It also has an excellent blend of nature and music, but it is hard to find much information about it on the internet.

Sincerely,
Ralph

Your Welcome Spooky.

Thanks Ralph that is wonderful word association and very interesting.

i forgot Jim Morrison, the Doors and Pink Floyd in my list (how could i have done that!)
sorry to be such a hippy in my music choice    i think all your music choices are beautiful and its wonderful how music talks to us like jkeyes said.

The other night in a dream I was playing a percussion instrument that was silver, flat and round and had curls of silver at intervals around the edges.  The length of the curls and the placement of the curls around the edge determined tone.  I was playing with another musician who was playing a guitar and he was showing me how I could duplicate the notes from his guitar on this weird looking percussion instrument.  All I had to do was flick the right curl with my finger.  It sounded very cool. 

I studied percussion in school but never heard of or seen an instrument like this.
