Title: Sri Ganapati Sachchidananda Swamiji
Description: Sri Ganapati Sachchidananda Swamiji sees healing with music as a yogic practice. Yoga teaches that the astral body has
72000 nerve lets and 14 major nadis or nerves. Each nadi vibrates at its own frequency. Music soothes the nadis and
helps them to vibrate at the proper rate. Music becomes a therapy, He says, when the healer, musicians and listeners all
deeply concentrate on the sound. Sri Swamiji stresses on concentration or Ekagrata on the part of the healer musician
and the listener. Listening is a special technique where sense control or Indriya Nigraha is required. "Physical health and
results from a healthy mind," Sri Swamiji says. "Music of the right type helps in achieving relaxation by soothing the
nerves and through that, comes peace and stillness of the mind."
Sri Swamiji claims that "ragas are the unspoiled sounds of eternal nature, the soul of man and Paramatman. In the hands
of the perfect technician, they are great forces." Sri Swamiji uses a synthesizer because this instrument can reproduce
singly or in combination the sounds of more than 1,100 instruments. This allows Sri Swamiji a greater range for healing
through music. Not all ailments can be cured by Sri Swamiji's music however, especially those which have already
reached a terminal state.
Music therapy requires more than just intense meditation on sound. This great master understands the varying
vibrational qualities of the different ragas and knows which raga can help a particular disease. Certain ragas can only be
played at selected times to be healing.
