Vibratory Affinity and Resonance – (1551)

Introduction

This is another important principle to know when wishing to make the chanting of mantras more effective. Because when we chant a mantra we want the vibration of the mantra to permeate our whole mind and body and vibrate in the same way as the mantra.

In short, chanting mantras is about working with the principle of vibratory affinity.

Down came the walls of Jericho by the power of sound!

Excerpt

“VIBRATORY AFFINITY

If a musician playing an instrument, was to hit the Keynote of a man, and prolonged that note to the maximum, that man would die instantly. All the cells of the human organism are sustained by Sound, by the Verb. The atoms of the entire organism live in incessant motion. All that is in motion makes a sound, and the Logos makes sounds. The Synthetic Note of every atomic movement of the human organism, could by a Law of Vibratory Affinity, instantly kill the human being.

It is said that when Joshua blew the trumpet, the walls of Jericho fell. Joshua hit the keynote of those walls. In the army, it is known that when a battalion is going to cross a bridge, they should break the march so as to not destroy the bridge’s stability with their sonorous rhythm. If the note of a piano is played, and if there is another piano nearby, the latter will repeat the same note of the former. This is due to the law of Vibratory Affinity.

Apply this example to the case we mentioned. Really, if the musician was to produce the keynote of a man and prolonged it too long, by the Law of Vibratory Affinity, the phenomenon of the two pianos would repeat itself in the man’s organism, and then this would mean instant death in other words, a very intense commotion beyond the resistance of the normal equilibrium of the man’s structure.”

(Logos, Mantram, Theurgy, Samael Aun Weor)

Conclusion

There you have it. We need to make the principle of vibratory affinity work within us when we chant mantras. When it works we are very close to making the mantra work for us.
