Utility & Healing

construction of a place on Mount Kailash, for lord Shiva. Many instances of music
healing people are there in Indian Mythology.
One such instance was healing of Lohitang ( Planet Mars in
Astrology). Andhak, elder brother of ‘Lohitang’, had mislead him against
Mahadev (Shiva), by negative sub-conscious conditioning during upbringing.
Lohitang made several unsuccessful attempts to overpower Mahadev. Ultimately he
decided to use a combination of 'power of music' and 'destructive dance of Mahadev (Tandav)' as weapons. He was
himself healed and relieved of all negative energies, emotions and thoughts
when he was exposed to music.

Sound Self-Healing on Daily Basis
- Try to create as soothing sounds as possible while talking. Ensure the same in all other basic activities. Encourage self & others to maintain a sound environment with more laughter & sounds of positive emotions.
- Listen to soothing music for a gainful positive effect. Classical music, soft instrumentals and mediation music are good for raising energy levels.
- Practice chanting of spiritual nature – it elevates energy levels.
- Use energy instruments like bells, chimes and blowing conch.
- Spend time with nature and make all efforts to listen to the soothing natural sounds.
- Spend five to ten minutes without creating a sound i.e. being deliberately quiet, every day. Close your eyes and listen to the music of your breath & any other internal activity, if you can perceive it. This will take you to meditative states and help you focus on the 'present moment' while performing daily tasks.
- Operate machinery like cars, grinders etc smoothly. Stressful & jerking noises eg. stress-fully roaring engines on abrupt accelerations should be avoided.
- Avoid shrieking sounds created by activities like dragging of furniture, banging of doors, creaking of hinges, throwing any article etc. – these are sources of negative energy.
