| (((GONG))) in Great Barrington Summer 2008. Experience the healing sound of the Gong in interactive session FAQ Q: how is the sound of a Gong healing? A: The sound of a gong can be healing if it is played to create efficient, non-distorted sound-wave energy. Q: What does sound healing feel like? A) It feels like a soul-massage, It feels like being "let off the hook", Q: How do we know that gong sounds are actually healing? A: Because Gongs transmit efficient wave energy. The gong is a finely-tuned sound instrument that has very little resistance in it's physical form. This physical efficiency (or lack of resistance) is the reason the Gong can generate long-sustaining tones and harmonics. The soundwave energy from the gong is, therefore, also very efficient (or, without resistance). We feel that efficient soundwave energy in our body, it shows us where our own resistance is, and allows us to breathe thru those blocks and into harmonious resonance. The participant is expected to do nothing except "Be", this is a simple activity. The Gong does all the work. |
