Trance-Formation: A Sound JourneyTrance-Formation: A Sound Journey
Jan. 9 @ 5:30-6:30pm
Join sitar and native flute player Rick de Yampert for Trance-Formation: A Sound Journey. After a brief introduction exploring the cosmic mechanics of sacred sound (the perfect 5th interval, the mystic physics of music, the Hindu Om and more), Rick will present a continuous, 45-minute sound journey into bliss, trance and transformation via ethereal techno-tribal music played on sitar, Native American flutes, frame drum, crystal singing bowls, metal and wooden tongue drums, world percussion, digital tabla, loops, synth and-or spoken word.
The goal of this sound journey is to alter your consciousness so you can “altar” your consciousness – quieten what the Buddhists call the constantly jabbering “monkey mind” so that you can enter a trance state, open your Third Eye and journey to Spirit. Please bring a blanket or yoga mat, and some sort of pillow or headrest. Alternately, patrons may sit in one of the chairs or the sofa in the Hotel Cassadaga séance room. Patrons may choose to trance journey with their eyes closed, bring pen and paper for journaling or spirit writing/drawing, or just listen and chillax. Cost is $25 cash and held at Hotel Cassadaga. Seating is limited. Please call 386-228-2323 to register.
