Sang, Sat, Saturday at Satsang


What raises our vibration? A sunny day, an unexpected windfall, a walk along a moonlight shore. There are so many events that touch our hearts and minds, raising us up to a higher level of consciousness. Then life starts to get in the way and pretty soon our heads are in a funk and we are hoping and wishing to regain our peace of mind.

So, what can we do to deliberately raise our vibration and keep us tuned in throughout the ebb and flow of life’s offerings? There are of course plenty of options, including the ancient rites and rituals of Satsang in the company of a guru, collectively reaching towards the highest truths. Finding ones voice to join in the repetition of Sanskrit mantras evokes a powerful personal reaction. The deep tones emerging from the very base of our being right up to high pitch vibrations at the top of the head, exciting the divine within. Hands clapping, beating time with the drums and percussion, energizing the body and lifting the spirit.

Unless you are already gifted with a good voice, sing regularly or attend a congregation, it is unlikely that you have tapped in to the vibration of song and sound and its life enriching qualities. Playing a musical instrument, joining a showchoir, chorus or belting out a tune around the house is a remedy for feeling great. Tensions dissolve away, spirits soar and pretty soon you become a beacon of pure positive energy. Ok, so maybe your singing talent doesn’t quite have the ‘x’ factor but who’s judging. Find your own song, sing it loud and sing it from the heart.
