Music is Healing

During times of great emotion one can identify a song that will bring some sense of solace to them. Turn on a different song and one can get hyped up, angry, sad and so forth.

The question of the impact of those songs is something like the chicken and the egg... Which came first? 

Did the feeling become attached to the song via  a persons heart? or did the original artist impress emotion onto the song that transcends and is inferred by the listener?

Through my studies I have found some of the answers through Plato's Republic, working within the music industry, but none have been more enlightening than the information shed by the eastern philosophy of Chakras.

The Chakras is short are the seven centers of light said to be placed on a human being. Starting at the "base" where the sexual organs reside, moving up to the belly known as the "sacral." Then moving higher to the heart chakra, followed by the throat, "third-eye" and "crown" chakra. 

The philosophy of chakras is based in deep Hindu and Buddhist theology, but there are some that would say they date further back to roots due to Jainism. Relating this conclusion to its phonetic relationship to the written language Sanskrit. The translation of Chakra to be Wheel or light... or Wheel of Light. 

The theory is that at each light center there is a body part that works in conjunction with the endocrine system. The endocrine system then secretes different stimuli to the body and brain that are connected with the spiritual energy that one may take in or give off. These wheels of light, all different colors, together create what has popularly known as an Aura. 

So if someone is consumed by hate or malice, it could create a chakra-inbalance that would display a negative aura or energy of a person so to speak.

So how does this relate to music?

Well think of your body as a radio antenna that picks up different waves, kind of like the eye computes waves of light. See our eyes operate on a very narrow band of frequencies, these are known as the Visual Spectrum of Light. However there are many frequencies that are not scene by 

the eye. 

These are things like radio-waves, microwaves, x-rays and more. The eyes is only one receiver of those waves, in this theory.

Music much like light travels in waves...

Check out this video by Black Dot the writer of Hip-hop Decoded giving a simple lecture about the theory and how it relates to Hip-hop.

Consider this... through-out religion there is always an aspect of music, chanting, singing, and other musical influence. 

It was also said in the Christian religion that Lucifer was the father of music.

More food for thought, think about the fact that music is one of the universal languages practiced by all tribal-societies. Drums always used before war, around agricultural seasons and other natural phenomenon. 

Black Dot makes the argument that music is a complete expression of self and vibrancy of the spirit. He makes the argument that due to the nature of the music in today's music all of the beats flutter at a low frequency that hits the root and sacral chakras. 

These chakras are said to be the rulers of sexual energy and materialist need. He continues to claim that the "overseers" of the music industry wish to control the masses by sexual perversion and material need for wealth through the music itself.

One particular case to look at is 2pac. If we were to label him as a representation of a chakra it would most certainly be the heart chakra....Peep what Shock G said about him.

 

2pac appealed to the heart and feeling of general people in need. 

Something I found quite interesting was a parallel between something Jesus said and a Eastern Philosphy like Chakras... In Eastern philosophy there is a saying to have balance in Mind, Body and Spirit.

In his very last moments before his disciples, prior going up to the Mount Olive to pray,  

In Luke 21:34 Jesus gives this advice to his disciples about the end times... “Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you suddenly like a trap.

One of the meanings of dissipated means to be concerned with frivolous affairs. Which i would attribute to the mind. Keeping the mind busy with things of no real relevance, like soap operas, games, reality tv and so forth. 

Drunkeness is obviously a physical action. To become drunken in anything takes a physical action.

When I hear the anxieties of life, I think oh how much the weight of bills, lifestyle take a toll of the spirit. 

Either by coincidence, via God, or study of Eastern philosophy. jesus was saying keep balance in mind, body and spirit. 

Music is definitely a tool that hits the spirit and the mind. If we do not value the level of healing or destruction music can play in our lives it can be easy to become dissipated in the pursuit of rims, cars and other shiny objects.

Music like Mozart can take your mind to a very serene place. it is very important that we feed our mind and ears with music that is edifying to the spirit in order to maintain a balance as we are increasingly becoming bombarded with violent, materialized, militarized music.  

I am a Creator

Culture. It is such a small word to describe something so rich in context. 

Culture. It is something I have always struggled defining, and for many people, something that is not understood easily in the U.S.

Often we are labeled by general names like "Black," Hispanic," and such that we never take the time to understand what culture really is.

Now just to be clear, in the United States there is culture BUT the common pop culture is an "impressed culture," not a true culture.

I have read dozens of books on the sociological effects culture has not only on a person but on the Macro level, so I will try to be as concise and practical as I can on the topic. 

In order to TRULY understand culture one must first understand their history and allow the knowledge thereof to empower themselves to be what we truly were meant to be, CREATORS.

To understand culture and it's true meaning beyond the impressed culture one must find themselves first.

Background: I am a of Spanish, Italian, Aztec, Cherokee, French, and other Native American tribes genealogically. Raised in Denver Colorado. A "Chicano", who does not speak spanish and was raised with just as many Black friends as I did Latino friends. 

One thing I have always struggled to understand was why I would encounter reverse racism, from Mexicans imp articular who were so proud of speaking spanish and being a "Real Mexican." This is something at keeps the Latino Community from organizing. A basic tactic of Europeans, as shown in history in India and Africa. 

By making people of tribal descent fight over small differences between us, it allows someone else to control the masses. Let me elaborate.

The first thing someone does who speaks Spanish when you do not is to scoff at the fact you speak English, insinuating that you are white. A immediate correlation to the rulers who oppose our own tribal ancestors.

For an explanation on this I am going to refer to my obsession with the civil rights movement, black leaders and Pan-Africanist. Often in my life I have had people accuse me of acting black, when in all actuality I was only engaging in the impressed media driven culture given to me.

However I have always found the struggle of the Black race very fascinating for a couple of reasons. One because I was raised poor and it was easy to relate to the lifestyle of the urban centers of america. Two I have always understood that if the rulers of this country wish to destroy the power of the people it will be through destroying the black race first, then on to the next whether it be Latinos or Asian, and so forth.

So in order to fight back against those who wish to destroy us all, we must study those who trail blazed against those forces in the past. Probably due to the media and lack of information, as a Latino-american there are very little leaders in the past, Ceaser Chavez, Corky Gonzales, Che Guevara and so forth. So I studied Huey Newton, Marcus Garvey, George Washington Carver, and so forth.

For all the similarities Latino have with the Black population in the United States we have one thing that is significantly different.

Africans were cut off from their culture twice, once when brought from Senegal or West Africa to the new world. 2nd when the U.S suppressed the revolution in the 1960's and the suppression of the Civil Rights movement.

Latinos however, suffer from an internal generational anger. See there are two things ALL Latinos have in common.

One everyone of us has both tribal and European ancestry. At some point all one of our ancestors was raped by a European settler.

Two we all have been generational victims of some form of European Imperialism. Which brings us back to the discussion of reverse racism.

What is done in American with the propaganda of Nationalism, Consumerism and Militarism is put on the U.S. and Mexico. Why you ask? because our medias are both ruled by the elite European Bankers. the very people who destroyed our tribal ancestors.

Nothing is more evident to this than the languages we speak.

Spanish is only the spoken language of South America and Mexico because of the Spanish Settlers who imposed their culture on our ancestors.

Similarly because I am the victim of generational British Imperialism I speak English.

So to identify one's self first is to understand this. Then to go back and find the true culture of your ancestors. 

What you will find most of the time is that we come from tribal roots. My ancestors danced in circles around the drum as well, and lived their lives as CREATORS.

Art, Dance, Music, Food, Knowledge are Universal Cultures we all have. So to be consumed by this impressed culture keeps one from knowing their true self and their purpose.. which is ...

To be a CREATOR....

SAY IT AGAIN... I AM A CREATOR.

Subject/Headliner: Trouble in Syria

Research: Russians recently accused by US and UN of selling Syria aircraft due to protestors. In which Moscow responded saying the aircraft was sold years ago and this shipment is just to fufill those commitment. Adding that the us funds rebels constantly in the region


“unlike the United States, which regularly supplies that region with such special equipment, including one such shipment [that] went to one of the Gulf countries recently, but for some reason the Americans consider this to be in order”.
Syria is becoming another Libya in which the US insist it in not involved militarily.
This Rueters piece sounds like complete globalist propaganda, accusing Syria of crimes of Humanity, sounds much like Libya.

Russia’s stance reflects a growing global consensus of independent journalists and geopolitical analysts who have meticulously and objectively documented a timeline of what is certainly a premeditated destabilization of Syria by the West.
