Resources for Better Living

I first visited Egypt in 1980. It was a life changing journey. I returned in 1981 with my recording engineer. On three separate occasions, through a series of coincidences and connections, we were granted unprecedented private access to record inside the Great Pyramid.

     Over the last year I rediscovered the original master tapes. With the latest sound-enhancing software, we were able to restore and improve upon the original recordings which captured the higher harmonics and deeply reverberating acoustic properties of the majestic King’s Chamber. The results exceeded my expectation!

     As I meditated and tuned in to the energy of ancient ceremonies, sacred chants and invocations began to channel through my voice. I invite you to journey with me, back in time ... to a time when the Pyramid was used for ceremonial purposes and for the transformation of body, mind and soul.

Inside the Great Pyramid

     Ever since I first read about the Great Pyramid as a child, I knew I had to go there in person. I finally got the opportunity of a lifetime in 1980, as part of the faculty of a tour sponsored by Atlantis Rising. Noted authority John Anthony West was a primary presenter, as were Patrick Flanagan, Bill Cox, and Joseph Jochmans.

     According to many contemporary authorities, like Graham Hancock and Richard C. Hoagland, the pyramid is much more than just what traditional Egyptologists tell us—a burial tomb for a pharaoh. Indeed there is evidence that the Pyramid may be an acoustically-driven power plant and temple of transformation. In other words, it can be resonated, stimulated and turned on by the use of certain sounds.

     Certain esoteric traditions describe how the ancient builders used sound to create an anti-gravity field that made it possible to transport the twenty-ton blocks of limestone and granite from the quarry hundreds of miles away. This was also the secret to how they placed the stones so precisely, without mortar and without chipping.

Making the Recording

     My goal was to open myself up to become the instrument through which ancient ceremonies and chants might be brought back to life. On the first night inside, we walked carefully up the long wooden stairs. When we got to the King’s Chamber, my recording engineer Roger set up the microphones, and then went outside the room to operate the tape recorder.

     When I was ready, I lit a candle, said a silent prayer of invocation, and signaled the guard to turn off the electric lights. I was instantly engulfed in a visceral blackness. Although I had read of others’ experiences, I was nevertheless unprepared for the profound power of the “silence.”

     Within seconds, the visions started. I’ll save the details for my autobiography. Suffice it to say that I experienced the most powerful feelings of déjà vu I had ever felt. Chants I had never sung suddenly emerged from my lips. They were strangely familiar to me.

     Beginning with the sound made by hitting the edge of the sarcophagus with my hand, I then proceeded through various combinations of “Om,” both solo and with others. In addition to “Om,” I invoked sacred names from several traditions. Two of my spiritual teachers, J.J. Hurtak and Jack Schwarz, suggested several chants and melodies. You’ll also hear me acoustically resonating the chamber, exploring which frequencies really got the room humming.

Inside the King’s Coffer

     One of the most amazing experiences of all occurred when I chanted the vowels at various pitches while lying down inside the King’s coffer, or sarcophagus. At one precise tonal frequency, I suddenly felt like I was in a small boat, rocking on ocean waves. A moment later, I felt like I was levitating.

     I knew intuitively that I had tuned into a psycho-active resonance. Dare I continue to chant this sound? Was I activating the stargate? Would I dematerialize and vanish from this level of Earthly existence?

     As these thoughts raced through my mind, I was suddenly brought back to Earth—a group of Japanese tourists had evidently found another pyramid guard to bribe, and their noise broke the spell.

     Had I had another five minutes by myself, this might have been a very different CD. Alas, I may never know. We were already late for our flight home, and had to leave in a hurry.

Meditate in the Timeless Silence

     Track 10 on Initiation: Inside the Great Pyramid is a ten minute silent meditation which lets you fully resonate with the incredible power of the Silence itself.

     Sit in a meditative posture with your spine erect, or else lie down. In order to receive the full power of the multi-dimensional frequencies encoded on this CD, I encourage you to listen with good headphones and your undivided attention. The pressure-sensitive microphones we used will recreate the acoustical pressure and inaudible harmonics of this chamber. You’ll hear me strike the side of the coffer three times to let you know when the meditation is over.

     After a brief pause, I include my recording at the Temple of Isis on the Isle of Phillae. Many magical moments occurred, which I’ll also address in my autobiography. The healing and protective energy of the Goddess was very much in evidence.

     Many listeners have reported that this recording stimulates very interesting dreams and visions. I’d be delighted to read of your experiences, and invite you to share them with me at AskDrSound@innerpeacemusic.com as part of our ongoing research.
