spanda: the vibrational essence of the universe...

I find myself more and more connected to the true alchemical use of the voice – not only through the use of raga and rhythm, but in the pure tones themselves – witnessing the overtones, the dynamic interplay of both precision and expansion, the precise use of resonant chambers to draw out every facet of tone, and simply/especially the way tone has the power to heal in both its vibration and intention... Even just one note carries the whole power of the infinite universe...
