Islamic Mysticism: Sufi Meditation
The practice of Sufism includes specific meditative
techniques, breathing exercises and the repetition of holy
words. Sufi practice of concentration is a meditation
technique of one-pointedness, of mind focus or ‘tamarkoz’
a Persian term for concentration.
Meditation within Sufis is a mystical experience. Music and dance is an essential part of the
experience. The dance and singing allow a devotee to receive divine inspiration.
An Islamic prayer or Salah is also a form of singing meditation. Salah is a way of praying to
Allah with the recitation of passages ‘Surahs’ from the Qur'an.
Judaism Meditation
The Jewish mystical tradition, Kabbalah, is in its essence
a meditative study of God’s instruments of materialisation.
A meditator meditates guided with the specific mental
visualisations, allowing his inner experience to grow into a
mystical experience, an ‘elevation of the soul’ to gain a
spiritual intuitive knowledge of secrets hidden within the
Kabbalah’s Tree of Life. The practice is the one of the
analytical reflective process that also appreciates the mystical experience.
Judaism and Magic of Sound
Within the
Zohar, an ancient
mystical Kabbhala's text, the sound is respected as a very
essence of creation. The sound vibration for the Hebrew words are the forces that bring
these entities into existence.
'The ancient Kabbalists gave us the sound patterns and sequences of vibrations that
can transform our lives on every level. These patterns are the words of the Zohar, the
words of Torah, and the sequences of the Names of God. When we interact with these
universal technologies, we invite their power into our lives to transform us.'

111Hz and Healing with Sound within Ancient Temples
Divine Sound and Divine Frequency
John says: ‘In the beginning was the
Word, and the Word was with God, and
the Word was God’. Upanishads say
that the divine, all-encompassing
consciousness first manifested as
sound ‘OM’, the vibration of the
Supreme. Pythagoras
created
his
musical scale starting with a note A (just next to the middle C) that resonates at the
frequency of 111Hz. Perhaps this one note contains many overtones like white light that
contains all the colours. Perhaps it is a Cosmic ‘I love you’ that is within all of us. 111Hz is a
frequency of a low male voice.
Paul Devereux is a professor from Cambridge and an archaeo-acoustician who researches
the area of archaeology and acoustics within the ancient sites and temples analysing the
ritual use of sound. He’s discovered that burial mounds in Ireland called Cairns, even though
they are made of different materials, and are different sizes, all resonate at one particular
frequency, of: 111 Hz. Findings of MRI scans suggest that at exactly 111hz, the brain
switches off the prefrontal cortex, deactivating the language centre, and temporary
switches from left to right-sided dominance, that is responsible for intuition, creativity,
holistic processing, inducing a state of meditation or a trance. Further research directed
by Prof. Robert Jahn has tested acoustic behaviour in megalithic sites in the UK, showing
that they sustained a strong resonance at a sound frequency between 95 and 120 hertz.
Healing with Sound, Divine Healing Frequency and Ancient Malta Temples
The Maltese Hypogeum is a temple hewn out of the rock during 3600-2500BC that covers
some 500m
2
with the lowest room being around 11 metres under the ground, mirroring
Temples above the ground that are the oldest free standing structures on Earth. Testing that
analysed the sound within the Oracle Chamber in the Hypogeum found to match the same
pattern of resonance at the frequency of 111Hz.
Seven thousand years ago, a thousand years before the Egyptian pyramids, in the
Mediterranean, in Malta, an amazing culture seemed to be flourishing in peace and harmony
