“The gong is the sound of Creativity itself. One who plays the gong plays the Universe. The gong is a beautiful reinforced vibration. It is like a multitude of strings, as if you played with a million strings. The gong is the only tool with which you can produce this combination of space vibrations.” Yogi Bhajan

“ The gong is really an engine of power more than a musical instrument. The energy that comes through the gong is not just a fundamental tone, but all the tones combined to create a wall of sound - rather like a tsunami, a great wave. It is really like a delivering of pranic healing.

“The universal gong sound is based upon the musical principle that all tones of equal amplitude keep resonating, adding to themselves, to produce cumulative offspring, so to speak. This phenomenon is unique to gongs and replicates exactly what happens in the building of the human physical, mental emotional and spiritual bodies.” Don Conreaux

“Gong therapy also relieves stress and has a profound, revitalising effect on the immune and nervous systems. When you bathe in the healing sound of the sacred gong no mind chatter can stand in the way. The wave of total sound is both heard with the ears and felt as a powerful vibration sweeping over and penetrating deeply into the body - cleansing, releasing, healing and harmonising on all levels.” Guru Ram Kaur

Gong healing is frequently included as part of my Kundalini Yoga classes. It also forms an integral part of the special Healing Circle Meditation events which are held regularly at Sohan Jalaiai.

Here are some comments from people who have attended some of our Meditation and Gong healing evenings:

Dear Guru Ram
The healing evening was really lovely. The power of the gong is really quite extraordinary with the vibrations moving right through your whole body. Thank you for sending the Mung Beans recipe which is proving to be very popular!

Sat Nam Guru Ram
Thank you so much for last night - everything was wonderful and I was inspired by your cooking to buy both mung beans and quinoa today. I was also impressed by how the vibration of the gong relaxes the body...

Dear Guru Ram
Sat Nam
