Tantra of Sound
How to Enhance Intimacy with Sound
by: Jonathan Goldman and Andi Goldman
What is Tantra, anyway? According to award-winning musician Jonathan Goldman and his psychotherapist wife Andi, tantra is the energetic web of life that interconnects and unites all of reality. It’s what quantum physicists are calling “The Field” or “The Matrix”. The Goldmans reveal that a tantric practitioner concentrates on expanding all levels of consciousness, uniting and harmonizing all the energies within oneself in order to experience ones divine essence and oneness with God.
If you thought tantra was mostly about sex, Tantra of Sound by Jonathan and Andi Goldman will tell you otherwise. Throughout the book, which won the prestigious 2006 Visionary Award for “Best Alternative Health Book”, they discuss Hindu, Tibetan Buddhist, and other approaches to tantra as a universal concept for connecting to the oneness within us all. The Goldmans also focus on the relationship of tantra to sound, vibration, compassion, and enlightenment. Then, using focused intention and visualizations; and exercises with breath, toning, seed sounds, and sacred vowels, they show you how to use your voice either by yourself or with a partner to balance your chakras and reduce emotional turmoil, exchange energy with others and experience unity with the Divine.
Sound and vibration are the essence of tantra, and the Goldmans assure us that readers with no previous musical talent or training, no experience singing, and no Hindu, Buddhist, or any other religious belief can use the techniques in this book to shift their vibratory levels and expand their consciousness. They teach readers through tantra and understanding of sound of the human potential, healing and happiness through the use of our voices and other sounds in new ways, including using tuning forks and crystal bowls if desired, can attract greater harmony and creativity into our lives and relationships, increase intimacy with a partner, and even extend our capacity for compassion.
Readers get an original audio CD to heighten their experience. According to Deepak Chopra, “Tantra of Sound provides a significant new approach to creating harmony and balance within.”
