Science of Music & Mind:
the Study of Communications
Music itself is an organized,
synchronous flow of rhythm.
The ultimate purpose of music
is to initiate shared harmony
between both the producer of
the musical rhythms and the
receiver, the listener of the
music that comprises the
rhythms. The listener must
respond equally to the
rhythms being produced to
complete shared harmony.
What's interesting about the Science of Music and Mind
is that we can expand the phrase "shared harmony" to "shared memory reflux". This is the flow back of the same forces that initially flowed away from their source back to it. Thus, in memory, we have the producer and listener operating, as we described above, which truly makes harmony more meaningful within your own brain. With the added word "reflux," we can also see why music lovers are quick to:
- befriend others,
- understand other people's emotions, and
- even compose and sing songs about the emotions, and
- are also able to listen more candidly than most others.
Therefore, is it any coincidence or luck that dedicated music lovers live longer and are much more at PEACE than those who are less so? Don't be surprised when you hear them say:
Are these sayings facts of
science?
You bet they are because music is
SPIRITUAL! Spiritual comes from the
word Spirit, which means a vital
potential that's easily transformed to
force.
Force is utilized to perform. When you
perform, you are alive. In Dohgon
AfRAkan Science,
Force is the EFFORT you apply from
your memory with your voice, hands
and feet over a period of time, in
order to EFFECT an outcome.
The amount of effort that you apply in
your voice, or the movements that you
make, also depends directly on the
eflux action between two memories.
As you remember, reflux is the flow
back of the same forces.
So, science really starts inside your brain
before you physically see it in action. This is why they say,
"Judge a man by his actions, not by his words!"
With words, you don't apply much effort as you do with actions.
You are more TRUTHFUL or deceptive with your actions.
What aspect of
Music is Force
Music is a Sacred Science
because it starts from the
natural, non-physical or
abstract potential, your
MIND. Your MIND, in turn,
comes from a source even
more sacred... which is your
SPIRIT.
Although SPIRIT is
conventionally defined as a
force, Dohgon Science
describes it as ENERGY
Potential. It's this potential that transforms into Applied or physical potential that's now called force.
Force will be expressed in either sound or in movements. The word transform, in this case, has a purpose which is to interject potential from her Natural and Pure state into the Applied and applicable state. These become the sounds and movements that you express.
Tools: Communication
between MIND and
memory
What we call tools had not yet
been developed. Even rocks were
very difficult to get because the
top of the plateaus or mountains
were all a flat land of solid rocks.
People sustained themselves
mostly from fishing, not by canoes,
because there were no tools and
large trees from which to carve
them.
As the continents separated, the water receded into what we now call the oceans... and more and more land masses became available with plenty of vegetation. It was then that the first communications, that we described above, began. It's the communication between MIND and memory. That communication was to discover tools.
Thus, came the stone tool.
This was the Paleolithic AfRAkan's first tool. With it, he started to cut through large trunks of trees. It took months to fell a tree, but he did accomplish it.
He next carved his first canoe out of the trunk of the tree. Then he went out in the ocean fishing. As he went farther and farther away from his home, he got lost and ended up at some lonely uninhabitable island. There he settled and, again, came his next MIND to memory communication. The purpose of this was to ensure that his family back home knew that he was still alive.
Since he now knew how to make a stone tool, he easily made one, and cut through a smaller trunk of tree. What he carved this time was one of what you are seeing below.
His first drum was the Slit Drum.
He kept beating on it day after and day after day. Finally, his family from afar heard him, and they built a drum too. Thus, the science of what we describe as communications started. This was almost 600,000 years ago.
Gradually, he was able to send messages back through his drumming, and with similar responses returning...
... he knew he had to return home.
Thus, he loaded his drum on his canoe... and as he paddled, he kept beating on the drum to get guidance regarding navigation.
His family also responded. When he arrived back home, the celebration started in HONORING this human achievement in what has become the rescue effort.
When you hear AfRAkans dancing to drum beats, they are celebrating their first of many accomplishments in Human Thinking.
Music became the first source of that accomplishment.
