About Me

The Gong Bath is a mind altering, dynamic meditation experience designed to soothe, inspire, heal, and awaken spirit. It begins with the intrinsic harmonizing properties of ancient Himalayan Singing Bowls. The voices of the bowls pave a path into which the transformational sound waves of the Ghia Gong soon blends. This remarkable instrument is precisely tuned to match the vibratory signature of planet Earth in her oscillating dance with the Sun. Near eternal movements resonate at 136.1 hz. the frequency of the "Universal Chord," AUM, the ancient syllable of creation, bathing you with rising and falling rhythms, tonalities, and multi-tonal octaves that are naturally revitalizing in character.
The music tracks you are listening to are from my CDs, Terma-yana and Event Horizon. They are available along with other wonderful sacred sound CDs through my website.

Band Members: What people are saying about their Gong Bath experiences:

The full, compassionate sound of your gong spiraled me into myself, my Self, with murmurs, songs, sighs, and roiling, frothing thunder. I am back, here, now, and grateful. Also inspired ... I want to absorb what you do with your instrument, absorb it with my ears and eyes and pores and cells and bring it all back into my own work with zills. It's a marvelous experiment; the fullness of merciful softness inside all the voices of the gong made me surrender to it without reservation, and in this experience, reminded me and made me bow my head: There is no knowing the depths of anyone else's suffering, and it can all be healed with loving compassion. Last night was a love bath for me, and of course, I needed it. Your mastery is a beautiful gift. Bless you, and thank you very much. ~Jenna W., Boulder, CO

My wife and I participated in the wonderful gong bath in Taos last Sunday. It was a profound experience for me ... I was so glad you assured us beforehand that, while the music would get very loud, it couldn't damage our hearing. During that phase, my mind said, "Get out ... your hearing will become permanently damaged" ... AND "these windows are going to shatter ..." I trusted your words, though, and the reward was being able to lie there, let go, and experience what seemed to be the Earth herself rotating, and me at the center, calm and strong ... Thank you. ~Steve M., Taos, NM

First I would like to say what an exhilarating and powerful experience last night's Gong Bath was for me. You might recall I was right below the instrument and felt the vibrations coursing through my body for the whole time. I didn't have any unpleasantness at all, physical or otherwise. I was definitely in an altered state, though, and my mind seemed to be continuously flooded with insights on a wide range of topics. Suffice it to say I very much appreciate what you are doing, and what you have done for me. Namaste. ~Foster B., Boulder, CO
