Music Review: 30 sec. repeated recording does not make mantra meditation.
Rating: 2 Stars
"A waste of money" is the best I can say about Charles Cannon's CD: Om - The Reverberation Of Source ASIN: B00004ZCP3. The cover is attractive and uses two of my favorite words that actually have real spiritual and metaphysical meaning; however the audio content of the CD is a misrepresentation of living yoga, in this case Pranayama Om mantra-ing. The problem is not its repetition, since that is what is done when using Om mantra, the problems is its mechanical looping of the exact same recording. It starts out very lovely for about 30 seconds and then proceeds to repeat those exact same 30 seconds over, and over, and over, again for the next 29 to 30 min.; the second half of the CD is the exact same repetitive looping as the first half except about a minute longer.
Given that listeners only get about 30 seconds of continuous mantra-ing, that CD fails to share Charles' personal vibrational relation to humane spiritual source via his mantra-ing. Perhaps he is shy about exposing any significant hints concerning his individual soul's characteristics and private domain to a generic mass audience of untold numbers of which he has never met, and perhaps that is wise, I probably would be shy about that too; The problem is that it also fails as a useful mantra-ing CD in that its repetitive looping is artificial, mechanical, not natural, thus mildly antagonistic to human consciousness (despite the back cover's quasi-scientific gibberish) - that CD takes a lovely 30 second and constrains and subjugates it to a machine looping, thus droning final mix (not to be confused with the droning of musical instruments that must be repeatedly activated by humans, preferably musicians, and therefore vary naturally). So, why is that so important?
Human beings have fluctuations in their breathing, the volume of their vocalizations, the intent of and feelings during Oming all of which are very personal physiologically and karmically; furthermore, human anatomy is governed by the Divine Proportion (as in Sacred Geometry, and Geometry of Life) and each of us anatomically deviate form it somewhat, thus our individuality. In addition, part of our individual spirit is body ejected and re-absorbed biological photons of light whose energy states coincide with the Fibonacci Series which is in turn also governed by the Divine Proportion; personal vibrational relation to humane spiritual sources requires naturally fluctuating mantra-ing. What this amounts to is that 30 seconds of real time recording looped over, and over, and over etc. again is truly mechanical circularity and does not induce nor conduct aesthetically pleasing spirituality in the listener.
At very best such recordings are useful for persons with very chaotic minds (e.g. Psychology clinic patients) to help them at least minimize their mental cacophony.
For relatively normal persons, I don't recommend that CD, nor do I recommend any CD that repeats the exact same little bit of recorded mantra-ing.
