Kiss of God

Capilla del Monte, Argentina, 22.9.2005We refer to the Heavens above, or the Heavenly Father. And we know this exists. We refer to the Earth below, or the Earthly Mother. And we know this exists. For one reason or another these two have come to be seen as different entities. In fact, they are only different aspects of One Entity, or God, the Creative Force of all the Uni-Verse. Imagine the wonders of feeling the experience when Heaven and Earth unite again!

It is said that when the energy of Earth comes up to our heart, and when the energy of Heaven comes down to our heart, we have the Kiss of God. The intention of harmonizing and re-uniting the energies of Heavenly Father with those of Earthly Mother always rides the sound waves of the Circle of Sound. This intention is being broadcast to the furthest realms of the Uni-Verse and to the crystal core center of Mother Earth many times. Not only when the Circle of Sound plays, but also whenever any one of our many Earth family members around the planet expresses the same intention through their prayers and songs.

Imagine the power of many Circles of Sound set up at many energetic spots around the planet to play their powerful sound on the same day, some days at the same moment with the prayer of balancing the energies of Heaven and Earth, with many, many people concentrating on the same intentions of Harmony, Acceptance, Unity, Joy and Compassion among all beings of the planet. This is the idea behind our Global Harmonization Ceremony, which we share every Equinox and Solstice. Many of the circles are made up of seven or more crystal singing bowls and some didgeridoos, sometimes with drums, flutes and local instruments, and of course, the human voice. Many circles are made up of fewer or different instruments. Always the sounds are used to amplify the power of our united consciousness as we collectively focus on these intentions.

And imagine that no religion or belief or philosophy is involved. And that there are minimum words spoken during the ceremony, because we are not teaching anything. Simply the intentions are expressed so that we all focus on the same thoughts while huge sound waves are generated to amplify and carry the thoughts far into the Uni-Verse and deep into our Mother Earth. Imagine the simplicity, the purity, the power, the effect!

Background

Uritoco Mountain, Argentina © 2004 Daniel BrowerIt was in the shadows of Uritorco Mountain in the middle of Argentina in June of 2003 that Daniel Brower, Director of Circle of Sound, met Hugo Jaime, a descendent of the Comechingone Indians, formerly of those parts. Hugo Jaime has been living in a vortex called Posta del Silencio (Silent Post) for about 20 years, maintaining the energies of that special ceremonial space and sharing it with visitors. When Hugo Jaime heard Daniel play one crystal bowl with the intention of harmonizing the energies of Heaven and Earth, he saw the potential of Daniel going to each of seven particular energetic spots around the world and expressing that prayer. Then together Hugo Jaime and Daniel agreed that if the intention goes out from all seven spots at the same time, that it changes the consciousness of humankind. The Circles of Sound with seven crystal bowls empower and amplify the intentions held by the players many fold. And when such a big sound as seven Circles of Sound, or more, plays at the same moment, joined by other people and other circles in many other parts of the planet, all participating in the same simple ceremony, focusing on the same intentions, indeed, there is a shift in consciousness, and we raise the vibration of the Whole. This is the Global Harmonization Ceremony.

The seven primary power sites mentioned by Hugo Jaime are all in seven different countries. They are in Tepoztlan, Mexico; Miz Tli Tlan, Peru; near the Great Pyramid in Egypt; Bugarach Mountain in the Pyrenees Mountains in France; in the Caucasus Mountains, Russia; at Uritorco Mountain in Argentina; and in Shamballah, Tibet. Although people in places all around our planet have now heard about the Harmonization Ceremony and join us from all over the place, most of Daniel's energies between the years 2003 and 2008 went towards establishing a Circle of Sound family in each of these seven spots. These seven particular spots because of something that they have in common: they are all reportedly in the vicinity of underground cities, centers of activity below the surface of our Earth! Although we have no absolute proof that such beings and cities exist, there are so many stories and legends about them all around the planet that the possibility is worth considering. In the six of these sites that Daniel has visited and established a Circle of Sound, people in the areas have related such stories and believe in them. So the deeper intention of our Global Harmonization Ceremony is to establish contact and communication with these cities and beings. If indeed they do exist, then they are part of our Mother Earth's family, and it is time that we all start working together in Harmony and Acceptance and Unity and Joy and Compassion with each other. We all have something to share and contribute towards the manifestation of Peace and Harmony in our world.

The First Global Harmonization Ceremony

Tepoztlan, Mexico, GHC, 22.9.2005Between that first meeting with Hugo Jaime in June, 2003 and the September Equinox of 2005 Daniel traveled to Argentina and Peru several times, France, Russia and Mexico to promote the idea of such a Global Harmonization Ceremony. The travels and adventures were filled with blessings and lessons all along the way. And in each country he found people very receptive to the idea of this ceremony and eager to participate. Through the Divine Order in all things and the generosity of many people, sets of bowls were delivered to these five countries and teams of people were gathered together to form the Circles of Sound and to participate in the first Global Harmonization Ceremony scheduled for September 22, 2005, the Equinox.

Hours were arranged and synchronized so that everyone would be playing together, vibrating Mother Earth from all corners and saturating her with the intentions of Harmony, Acceptance, Unity, Joy and Compassion among all beings of the planet. Meanwhile many other people learned about the ceremony being planned and contacted Circle of Sound to say that they, too, would have some sort of circle ceremony. By the day of the Equinox more than fifty people all around the world had volunteered to have a ceremony in their space.

And so the first Global Harmonization Ceremony was a grand success with untold numbers of people joining in from their living rooms, backyards and parks. A few photos from some of those first ceremonies can be seen at the bottom of this page.

And since then Harmonization Ceremonies have been held on every Solstice and the Equinox, and they plan to be so held for the next several generations! Other ones were held on September 23rd, 2006, and September 22, 2007, again synchronized around the world so that we all played together at the same moments in time, at 17:00 hours Greenwich Mean Time. On the other Equinoces and Solstices and the other special days throughout the year when we call for a ceremony, the times are usually chosen by the local facilitators of the ceremony.

Ceremony Program

Most places where there is a Circle of Sound of seven crystal bowls follow this program. If not all the crystal bowls are available, it is easily modified to suit the instruments present. It is designed to be as simple as possible, so that people everywhere can be as united in consciousness as possible.

-Form the circle with bowls and players and everyone, sitting around the circle. Gratitude is expressed to all beings and powers present. Everyone is asked to turn off their cell phones and to be quiet and focused for the next two hours.

-Clarify the intentions of Harmony, Acceptance, Unity, Joy and Compassion among all beings of the planet

-Play each bowl two minutes, from root chakra bowl to crown chakra bowl; approximately fifteen minutes for this part. If fewer or no bowls are present two minutes can be spent sending harmonizing energy to each of the seven chakras.

-Play all the instruments participating continuously and harmoniously for two hours in a dance of all the sounds, with the intentions beings remembered occasionally.

-Observe a fifteen minute silent meditation.

-Form a group circle hand-in-hand and close with three AUMs.

The general response has been that the feelings of Harmony and Joy produced are almost tangible. And generally the Circles of Sound around the world are ready and eager to participate again, to keep up the good work. And so we will, in this simple, yet powerful way.

The intentions of this ceremony are:

Harmony among our families, among our communities, among all countries and peoples, within ourselves. This Harmony comes from deep within and is a real, living entity. We can best concentrate on this when we simply remember a time in our life when we felt that “all is well,” all is in Divine Order, and there is Peace. Remember such a time, feel the feeling, let it fill our heart and our whole being.

Acceptance of all people as our brothers and sisters. Acceptance of their beliefs, their path, their ways, their customs. We do not have to understand them. We probably never can.
Acceptance of ourselves as how we are. Our good parts and those parts we want to change. The good things we have done and the bad. Everything that we are.
Acceptance of everything that has happened to us and everything that happens as being in Divine Order. We do not have to understand why something happens, only trust and Accept that there is a reason that will be revealed in Divine Time.

Unity of all of us as One Family of Earth beings. This feeling of Unity comes to us as we accept everyone as our brothers and sisters. And as we realize that everything on this Earth is part of one Whole. We are all interconnected, interdependent and interwoven in the unfolding of this life on Earth.

Joy to all the world, to all the boys and girls, Mothers and Fathers, Grandmothers and Grandfathers. Joy is a very important part of Harmony! It is not the same as happiness, which is our birthright and which we can learn. Joy is a feeling that comes from deep inside, sometimes as a result of feeling the Harmony all around us, of Acceptance of all people and all things as they are, and of feelings at One, in Unity with All That Is.

Compassion for all people, all beings, all animals, all plants, all minerals, all mountains, rivers and forests. This is caring for the well-being of all. This is respecting every living thing on this planet. This is a deep form of Love, which every thing on this planet deserves.

Among all beings of the planet is a very important part of our intention. We refer to beings not only on the surface of the planet, those who we are aware of; yet also those who possibly live within our Mother Earth, those who we are not aware of. We refer to the beings that swim in our waters, fly in our skies, burrow in our grounds, those who crawl and those who walk, those big enough to see and those too small for our eyes. Let us be in Harmony with, Accept, feel Unity with, share Joy with and have Compassion with every form of being on this beautiful Mother Earth!

In September 2011 we celebrated the Global Harmonization Ceremony at the Third World Gathering of Circle of Sound in Alto Paraiso, Goaias, Brazil.

It was an amazing experience for all of the 150 of us who arrived in Puno for the Gathering. The two days and nights and ceremonies on Amantani Island were wonderful, powerful, harmonious and beautiful! And the other ceremonies at Amaru Muru and Cutimbo were powerful as well, as were all our gatherings, large and small. It was a blessing to have so many members and new members of the Circle of Sound family come together. The sense of Harmony that we manifested and maintained was probably the most impressive part of our Gathering. Like living the New Humanity, with Compassion for all the family, Acceptance of our differences, yet recognizing our Unity, and with Joy in our hearts, celebrating the Divine Light of Compassion and Love available to us all.

Below are a few photos from the Gathering ceremonies. The views from Lake Titikaka are most beautiful. The rocks of these lands vibrate with energy. And the force of our united consciousness raised the frequency level of all of us!

These are some of the places we visited and played our crystal bowls during the Gathering:
