Hmmmm interesting development
The Tsunami may have been the earths adjustment
to the "global entrainment" that seems to be occuring.
It seems two global rythmns are involved.
The natural rythmn of the earth and the
human rythmn set up by the internet....
These are vibrating at different rates but are
slowly becoming "entrained" Now Im not sure
if the Earth is vibrating faster or the internet
and it really doesn't matter cause they are arriving
slowly at a harmonic beat. Anyway heres a piece from
the web that helps explain it. It was written just after the
911 incident.
Allow me to propose a small beginning. It has to do with rhythm. Humanity’s rhythm is all out of whack. And we have messed up the rhythm of our own planet. All life has rhythm, from the revolving galaxies to the tiniest of atoms. The seasons, the tides, the cycle of day and night, light waves, sound: all elements of nature have in common the pulse of life. Our first experience of rhythm is our mother’s heartbeat heard from within the womb. We humans are walking rhythm machines, our own hearts being the core of our pulse. The blood rushing through our veins and the way we breathe and walk remind us of our rhythmic connection to the heavens and all things living. To stop the rhythm would be to stop life itself.
Look at the dying coral beds of the Great Barrier Reef, the barren and scarred land of the once-majestic Brazilian rain forests, the melting and diminishing ice caps. The rhythm for much of the world has either been altered or stopped, and look at the results. All the planet needs is its rhythm back—who could ask for anything more?
In music, rhythm is the key element, for without it a melody would go nowhere. It is the distance from one note to another, a forward progression in time. Life is also a continuing, forward progression in time. In order to heal a cancer, a broken bone, a depression, or even a headache, one must move forward, living a life that is mentally, physically, and spiritually creative, stimulating, and nurturing. To “heal thyself” is to move forward, not stagnate in the past.
The eighteenth-century philosopher Novalis said that “every illness is a musical problem. Sickness is thus a matter of being out-of-tune with both oneself and the world, and healing, a question of making whole.” We must be aware of and in-tune with the life-giving rhythms and pulses around us. Many times we ignore our own natural biorhythms and get out-of-sync with them, causing disharmony and distress. We can become dislocated from our spirituality, not letting the rhythm of the Cosmos influence our daily lives. We become disconnected in our faith.
In nature, “entrainment” occurs when two bodies that are in close proximity and are vibrating at nearly the same rate eventually lock-in to the same frequency and vibrate perfectly in tune. It is more efficient to vibrate in unison than in opposition. In dealing with people it is ultimately far easier and more productive to relinquish our oppositions and work together. There is certainly no “music” in the discord of the Middle East, or in the conflicts between North and South Korea; no harmony exists in Tibet, Iraq, Afghanistan; and sadly enough, on our own doorstep, White America cannot be in-tune with anyone of another color.
I own and play many percussion instruments from around the world which, among other things, help to remind me of and keep me in touch with the global community. I am acutely aware of the different world cultures of each drum, and I play each with deep respect for its peoples and their history. Tablas from India, a djembe from Ghana, Turkish gongs, multicultural frame drums, Vietnamese temple blocks, dumbeks from Morocco and Afghanistan, and a Chinese temple drum—each speaks to me in its individual way. As I play, the rhythmic undercurrent reinforces and augments my awareness of the omnipresent, life-sustaining rhythms that are around me. I can feel the pulse and spirit of life within me at home, at work, and while asleep. That energy is there for all peoples of the world to lock-in to, to entrain with, and to be in-tune with. It opens the door for one to be in-sync with the energy within oneself, allowing it to flow out to others.
Yes, music can be a wonderful healing medium, and frequencies are the building blocks. I have two low “F2” gongs which, vibrating at about 86 cycles per second, are in themselves amazing instruments of healing. “F” corresponds to the root chakra in Chinese medicine. After a long, hard day at work I will go to the gong and stand before it with my eyes closed. Though I do not have perfect pitch, I can actually hear the “F” before striking the gong. The “voice” of the gong is in the air, and I can pick it out and sing it before striking. The “F” is a grounding tone. It cleanses the body and mind of all the negativity of the day. Once I do strike the gong, its warm and embracing tone permeates my entire being. I can almost feel every stressed-out and fragmented cell in my tired body begin to line up and work together again. The experience is a sonic bath.
Music also has the power to incite. When I was a teenager in Albuquerque, New Mexico, I went to a dance at the Masonic Lodge. The band was loud and the crowd, angry. At one point a fight erupted next to the stage, and one musician savagely tried to hit people on the head by swinging his solid-body guitar at the lunging mass. That experience summed up the entire state-of-mind of kids at the time. Albuquerque was in a very bad way in 1967-68, as was the rest of the country. I am convinced that had my sister and I continued on in Albuquerque, one of us would be dead. I was constantly harassed, and many times narrowly escaped severe beatings. My sister still had her real growing up to do, and she could have hooked up with a very bad element. I am thankful that my family relocated to the Northwest.

by far, the most Healing Thing I have ran into for DECADES - if not thousands of years! THANK YOU, from the bottom of my Heart!

Epochal comprehension
If Keck is anywhere near the mark, his achievement is outstanding. He has detected the apparent truth that human history and pre-history can correctly be divided into three epochs, "... a large pattern within the history of the human Soul" (refer to his definition):
1. The first epoch, between 35 000 and 10 000 years ago was stable. Its "deep-values" (refer to the definition) were
[a] unity with nature and respect for animal powers;
[b] non-violence; and
[c] the "feminine side of the soul".
2. The second epoch is now drawing to a close. Its values are
[a] patriarchy and hierarchy;
[b] power and control;
[c] violence.
3. The third epoch, on which humanity is now embarking, is one in which humanity's Soul is to be transformed.
The nature of this transformation is a "unity of being" the author calls "wholeness" in which love will both energise and power a global "entrainment". (Readers of this book must get used to magnificently imaginative terms.) The latter is Keck's word for "... the scientific discovery that, when two or more oscillators are near each other and are pulsing at almost the same rate, they invariably end up pulsing at exactly the same rate ... entrainment is at the heart ... of human-to-human communication."
In this process of transformation, Keck appears to hope that we will all follow in his footsteps by becoming born-again pagans. By pagan he means "a country dweller", and predicts that communion with nature will become universal in Epoch III. This in contrast to "... a shallow and self-centred ecological and economic perspective of life" as pursued by modern city-dwellers.
War, writes the author "... has been a thoroughly Epoch II phenomenon ... because of the nature and content of the human Soul" in that epoch. This is about to change. Computer technology, democracy, personal authenticity and the "peregrine spirit" which will "... fly out over all the restricting and constricting borders that fence us in" will propel us into a golden future. Keck's own experience of "unexpected empowerment" came in an encounter with a female bear protecting her cubs. In his scramble to get back into his house, Keck communicated with her by "... verbally and telepathically trying to assure her that I meant no harm and just wanted us all to go home safely." I wonder what Keck would think of nature after a few weeks alone in the African bush?
