In the matrix of temples there exists a true art of music coded into the design of resonant acoustics which enlightens the soul. One special area where such temples can be found is the region of Yucatan-Petan. In contemporary times, a number of attempts have been made to design sound chambers and enclosures for variable acoustics that would aid the unfoldment of sound. Usually it is the ‘reverberation time’ that is varied by changing the amount of energy absorption in the rooms.
The creators of the ancient temples were just as sophisticated as modern day sound engineers and incorporated the generation of musical vibrations into the very structure of the rooms which enhanced latent soul energies. One technique was their use of certain stones with a high reflective nature, while another were walls connected with pathways that could be connected with adjoining wall complexes allowing one side to have a high absorption coefficient and the other a low one. Another method used to enhance temple music was to incorporate multiple singers to add additional resonance through voices as sound-devices. To be synergistic, voices became as a ‘vibratory wall’ acting like a reflective or absorbing panel. Small wall openings or ‘curtains’ were also added to change the absorption rates of sound and produce a noticeable change in scalar waves.
Through the use of sophisticated measuring instruments, we can measure different vibratory levels and varying acoustics to determine the enhanced reverberation by electronic means. Most of the important temple chambers we tested in the Yucatan were found to be, in effect, functional generators for a profound soundscape that, when activated, wrapped the temples with augmented sound levels. Morever, we discovered it was not just within the design of the inner chambers of the temples or pyramids, but also in the free field of open door ‘sacred space’, of quadrangles, plazas and open temple courts.
However, of the many vortex centers of sound we tested,Tikal, Guatemala, stands out as revelatory. ‘Tikal’, whose ancient name means ‘city of sound (or voices)’, is a living reminder of temples that trigger both the power of the music of the spheres and the power ‘of the soul’ beyond what is to be heard with the physical ears. Waves of light exploded over our heads when we conducted experiments at temple No. 2 in 1981 with the Henry Belk Foundation. Paraphysical sounds and real bursts of light were repeatedly scored from a paraphysical source.
The more time a person spends in sacred pyramids or temples the more he or she becomes attuned to the environmental music of the sacred space. While co-participating in powerful rhythms, the mind experiences other musical vibrations working with aspects of the soul-spirit body. Hence, according to the Pythagoreans, one becomes both familiar with the paraphysical world of the master architects and adjusted to the energies of creative consciousness. Through the sacred temples, reverberant sound builds up as we reach closer to the music of the spheres and discover that the Father’s House of Many Mansions has corresponding musical chambers on Earth!
