This also means there are multiple modalities that
mainstream science has yet to give a nod to, which just might re-train
or reprogram our DNA — even cells which have become cancerous or are
mutilated by the onslaught of toxins in our environment and negative emotional baggage which has been proven to have an
undesirable impact on health. Many people have compared human DNA to
the Internet. It communicates immense amounts of information in
microcosmically small, but significant ways, mimicking a vast network of
information portals, not unlike the billions of websites connected to
one another all over the world. It may account for our intuition, spontaneous healing, and a number of other phenomena that mainstream science is just beginning to understand.
CHAOS THEORY AND DNA
Chaos theory states that chaotic
appearances are just a very complex system affected by very subtle
changes in an almost infinite array of varying possibilities. When you
consider that humans have 3 billion base pairs of DNA, most of which are
identical, but that there are at least 3 billion raised to the
4th power (4 raised to 3,000,000,000) of positions possible – a number
larger than the number of particles in the Universe – you might just
call DNA a highly organized but extremely complex system – seeming chaos.
Is it not possible that such a complex system can be affected by very
subtle shifts of light or sound, even the human voice?
THE DNA SPECTRUM: MAKING MUSIC WITH BIOLOGY
There are numerous scientists (not to mention
thousands of years of spiritual adepts) who claim light and sound alter
our DNA and directly influence our biology. DNA is a type of language,
albeit a complex one. Computer simulations and a purely biological
approach to understanding the language, have failed however, in the same
way that language fails to describe ‘ascended states.’
Mainstream science will tell us
that while DNA involves construction rules that affect different
sequences, the ‘dictionary’ of DNA does not follow Zipf’s law,
which every other natural language follows. So, even though DNA has
structure, it is not a language. I heartily disagree. If you have ever
watched a musician who was skilled in playing his or her instrument technically, to absolute perfection, but somehow lost the emotional ‘language’ which
is necessary to convey an ovation-inspired performance, then you
understand that stringing together a perfect phrase or sequence of notes
does not account for an entirely separate and
subtle language that speaks to the human heart and mind. It is the
technical perfection of the right rhythms and notes paired with heart
and passion which brings us to our feet. Similarly, DNA can be strung together in its typical set of A-T or C-G, but it is the junk DNA which might decide whether your cells cause you to develop cancer or be gifted with the ability to see clairvoyantly.
Russian linguists, Dr. Pjotr Garajajev and Vladimir Poponin found that DNA does follow similar patterns and rules to human language, but
this is not the most interesting information, by a long shot. In fact,
biologist, Dr. David Deamer and Susan Alexjander, who holds an MA in
music, have discovered that DNA makes its own beautiful music before
we even try to alter it. The two measured the actual molecular
vibrations of DNA and recorded it using an infrared spectrophotometer.
They exposed each section of DNA
to infrared light and measured the wavelength it absorbed, and
therefore determined its sound frequency. What it made was ‘hauntingly
beautiful’ music. “Some of the combinations of frequencies,” Alexjander
said, “. . .they are just stunning. It sounds alive to me.”
IS THIS FOR REAL?
While interesting and inspiring, at least to the imagination, ideas of
singing DNA and re-structuring DNA with intentional frequency are
certainly difficult to find in practical application and are as of yet
lacking legitimate scientific validation. As with Chi, the mapped out essence of life to Chinese medicine,
the difficulty in finding verifiable proof and use for these theories
is something that has earned this line of thinking the title of new age
and pseudo-science.
Science does, however confirm that sound and light can and do directly influence the body’ healing processes. Researchers at the University of Cincinatti have
had measurable success in applying high-frequency electrical signals to
vascular cells with great effect in healing chronic, persistent wounds
like diabetic ulcers. For decades the mystery of Royal Rife and his
frequency healing machines have been touted by many as the end-all cure
for a wide array of diseases, parasites, and bacterial and fungal infections.
His discoveries suggest that every living organism has its own unique
resonant frequency and that by subjecting the body to electrical
currents that target specific pathogens, diseases and ailments can be
neutralized and destroyed without pharmaceuticals or
invasive procedures. Furthermore, acupuncture, the ancient Chinese
system of medicine that works directly with the body’s energy conduits
and has offered tangible healing benefits to millions over many centuries, has also recently been validated by scientific research.
These examples corroborate, to a degree, the
ancient spiritual notion that the human body is enlivened by a subtle
energetic system that can be manipulated by the application of sound,
light and intention. For one to understand this on experiential terms,
however, it is necessary to cultivate the sensitivity to detect and
direct this energy, but for many, this process of cultivation is simply
too demanding and too methodical to be assimilated as a habitual part of
daily life. Most people simply do not have the patience in our fast
paced environment to achieve the awareness of this, scientists included.
SHAMANISM MEETS SCIENCE
While science is making exciting advances in understanding our quantum universe, the
timeless healing modalities of shamanism have of late been forcing
their way into the popular conversation about healing and spiritual
development. In fact, shamanism may offer us the best example of how the
use of sound and directed energy can bring about healing in the body
and psyche.
In a shamanic healers toolkit, the most commonly utilized and highly prized agents of healing are often Icaros, which are Sacred songs sung
by the doctor to the patient to affect health and well-being by
enchanting the subtle and unseen spiritual influences that may be
gripping the body and psyche. In addition to Icaros, shaman will also
often employ chacapas, bundled dried leaves, as well as other musical or
tuning instruments which create sounds that are influential to the
body’s energetic system.
Often coupled with the use of plant medicines,
shamanic practices can have powerfully positive effects on the sick,
and some scientists are recognizing that the alkaloid rich medicine Ayahuasca may be able to assist in curing cancer. Eduardo E. Schenberg of the Federal University of Sao Paulo, has recently publicized research indicating that the compounds DMT and harmine, found in Ayahuasca, have “been shown to induce the death of some cancer cells and inhibit the proliferation of human carcinoma cells.”
While reductionist science is good at isolating
molecular reactions, the truth is that any research on the subject of
Ayahuasca is incomplete without acknowledging the beneficial presence
of shamanic healers who are capable of bringing out the highest
energetic potential of the effects of any chemical compounds within
Ayahuasca, or any other plant medicine. Administering the compounds
without the context of genuine shamanism is hollow, and lacks the full picture of the healing
potential of shamanic medicines. The primary means in which shaman
communicate with a patient is through their Icaros and other instruments
of sound and vibration, which demonstrates their understanding that a
significant part of the science of healing is working with vibration and frequency.
CONCLUSION
While certainly an interesting idea to muse, hard
evidence that frequency and vibration can directly effect DNA and the
body’s healing processes is still forthcoming, however, there is an
ample body of experiential human evidence to inspire and warrant further
examination of this topic.
This is not an easy theory to prove, or disprove,
and the answers are unlikely to satisfy everyone. The best that we can
see is that truth is relative to personal experience in some ways, and
when an individual has spiritual, or cosmic experiences that do not fall
within the explainable territory of rigid science, they unfortunately
are left high and dry by a world paradigm that is stringently adamant on
disproving mysticism.
