____________Expressions in Song & Spirit & Social Change____________

There are so many songs which reference the sacredness of music. ‘The Secret Life of Plants,’ from Stevie Wonder ‘In Bloom,’ from Nirvana and too many more to really list here. Music can be considered a mathematical interaction, and there are many studies revealing what western science perceives as special about music. So, when I listened to Rupert Sheldrake’s TEDx talk, “The Science Delusion,’ which apparently was ‘banned’ from TED, I was interested in more of his philosophy.

Since he described himself an atheist, and a scientist, it was very interesting to read Sheldrake’s essay on Sacred Song. Being a poet, musician and a wanna be shaman, who has a ceremonial name based on the importance of sound, anyone who has written a book entitled Morphic Resonance probably has ideas that I would find interesting. Since musicians are one of the few scientific and artistic practices which describe the interaction of two waves as harmonic, the third note being created as the two emitted notes ‘morph’ together, there is a direct correlation between ‘Morphic Resonance ‘ and harmonics in my brain.

Considering especially, that as Sheldrake mentions, that the mind is outside of the body, that our memories are actually kept within the realm of spirit, the idea that song, art and creativity are brought into the world through ‘muses,’ begins to explain why some songs are prophetic. When considering what sacred song means to cultures of first nations, these ideas bring a perspective which makes a great deal of sense. As first nations used song and dance to pass stories of their ancestors to each other, using song in a sacred way, then it makes sense that the sacred would be open to listeners in a way not practiced today.

As many artists and musicians attest, often they don’t know why they wrote the words or use the images they do, the results of these creations are in my mind, specific creations of the muses, who may be using the songwriter to bring a message to societal consciousness, without having had the experience themselves. Sorta like ‘channeling’ chants. I find a Grateful Dead song, ‘Sunrise’ speaks as one who has had ‘been experienced’ with the lyrics ‘ I’ll sing to them this story and know why.’

Of course, knowing is about feeling as well, as Rita Marley reminds us, ‘Who Feels it Knows it.’ Yet, in my heart, I listen to the musicians who can show me they have been to the places I have, and still celebrate creation with song. Sacred.

Being Blessed upsets people. It isn’t ‘normal’ ‘you aren’t flowing the rules.’

They say hindsight is twenty twenty, and after yesterday, I see a few things. I have quoted a certain psy-almist Danny Elfman a few times before, and one of his songs says ‘wake up, it’s 1984, but we’ve been here before.’ Which, if you consider the MFI pathogen discussed in the Bride Ministries interview with Natalie Morris and Linda Craig and is SO true. A pathogen with the ability to be invisible? Whoa, is it Sci-Fi? What else could a pathogen like that be capable of doing to someone’s body? So, the MFI pathogen like the one described by Natalie would be of extreme interest to ‘Big Brother.’

Other elements in the song lyrics which seem to be directly related to the type of society that the MFI pathogen could create are the lines:
Big brother’s watching, we watch him back 
We see right through his disguise 
He tries to scare us, with angry words 
But we all know that they’re lies 

If there is a pathogen which is able to receive and transmit data, then any one with the proper radio would then be able to receive any type of data collected by the pathogen, and from what she describes, would also be able to broadcast to the pathogen, or effectively, have the possibility of controlling the way that someone responds to visual, or audio data, and potentially regulate their emotional response.

Of course, in this scenario, the people are able to watch back, which is not able to happen in the 1984 that is described by Orwell. As the higher up someone is in Big Brother’s game, the more they are able to step outside and turn off the TV.

More from the Elf:
Whole world is watching, observing every move 
Is it beginning or the end? 
Just like a chess game, but so intense .

With precision responses to any type of behavior, I can only imagine that there could be people who have an agenda of control, and not of truth.

Since it has been some time since I have blogged, I will get it if there are not a lot of responses right away, since as Leslie Stevens says,
We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical.
