In total Silence and in the Presence of each participant, an inner journey unfolds in a state of deep relaxation, in total comfort, lying on soft mats and covered by a blanket that allows one to stay warm despite the body&#8217;s water undergoing significant movement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since the sound of the GONG slows down brain waves, it can often happen that one falls asleep, but this does not diminish the sound-energetic work at all &#8211; on the contrary, it enhances the depth of the experience, because the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">thinking mind<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is bypassed, the mind that uses and blocks a great deal of energy in analyzing what it sees and wants to control around itself. Likewise, when the volume of the GONG is raised, we allow our mind to step outside its usual functioning, silencing the chatter of our rational thoughts, placing us, therefore, in deep connection with our Inner Silence and with our Essence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>&#8220;<\/b><b><i>No one can teach you to play the GONG, only the GONG itself can teach you how<\/i><\/b><b>&#8220;<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, warns Don Conreaux! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our mind makes us think that it is we who are playing the GONG, but, in truth, it is the GONG that plays us. The more we draw close to the GONG, with the mallet or other tools, the more <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">it<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> teaches us to respect its Essence, its Soul, and its Vibrations. This helps us to depower our Ego, which is the only true prerequisite for &#8220;<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">harmonizing with the GONG<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.&#8221; This happens when this vibration is sustained over time and our Ego is transformed by the vibrational frequencies into Sound. The GONG shows us how we are doing, where we are on our evolutionary path, and the process we are living through harmony and dissonance that becomes harmony again, and dissonance once more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Sound of the Gong influences, at various levels and intensities, all our cognitive abilities studied by neuroscience: multisensory interactions, memory, learning, attention, creativity, and emotions, in addition to the classic auditory systems obviously involved in sound perception.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the environment around us is saturated with sound vibrations, our body is reached by this &#8220;<\/span><b><i>Informed Energy<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8221; through the skin and through all our organs, thanks to their protein structures. Sound vibrations act on the autonomic nervous system and on the entire neuro-endocrine-immune system, and every cell thus &#8220;massaged&#8221; eliminates <\/span><b>etheric<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> toxins and energetic blocks, working on hemispheric synchronization and on states of consciousness that become &#8220;altered&#8221;; a connection between both hemispheres will be activated &#8211; hemispheres which, individually, work autonomously, often in opposition &#8211; but in this new mode of &#8220;unity&#8221; they work in unison! In this way linear time disappears! This brings buried or unconscious experiences into consciousness and helps the person go beyond the illusory egoic separation and enter the True Essence of Being: <\/span><b><i>the I AM!<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We are observing how, in the current era, machines and technology are replacing the characteristics of the human brain&#8217;s <\/span><b><i>left hemisphere<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The left hemisphere is narrow and is responsible for memory. In reaction, the <\/span><b><i>right hemisphere<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> strengthens and becomes increasingly fundamental in interpersonal relationships, those that govern emotion, empathy, and creativity. It is broad, it considers <\/span><b><i>the Whole<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the Big Picture and not the detail. It is open and receptive, or, as we would say in this historical period, it is <\/span><b><i>holistic.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is not true that one part of the brain governs emotions and the other rationality: in fact, both hemispheres are responsible for both reasoning and emotion. Let us say, rather, that in the left we are in <\/span><b><i>trauma<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and in the right we are in the phase of <\/span><b><i>resolution<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><b><i>right<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> hemisphere thus understands symbolism, metaphors, the vision of events within their context; it possesses the overall view and perceives the more &#8220;subtle&#8221; meanings. It is the new, change, the free and intelligent reaction, unbound from constraints or repetition compulsions, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>The right hemisphere<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is fluid and open to Love and to a Higher Purpose, to Helping and to Evolution. The <\/span><b><i>left<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is fixed, isolated, static, responsible for the Memory of what we already know, our experiences, our memories, and our programs that frighten us, block us, and limit us, making us feel trapped and powerless. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>EVERYTHING IS ONE<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and as such it is the task of our evolutionary path to also unify the functioning of the two hemispheres, which, in &#8220;communion,&#8221; act by following and relying on <\/span><b><i>Quantum Laws<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, so that, first, they allow the intuition of higher concepts understood as <\/span><b><i>frequency<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, that is, the &#8220;download of higher information,&#8221; and second, the integration of this information through a more evolved overall vision, a <\/span><b><i>&#8220;holographic&#8221;<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> vision through which the information is then understood at a deep level and integrated into consciousness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let us look at this diagram of the two hemispheres:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>LEFT<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ANACHRONISTIC SUBJECTIVE RATIONAL STATE<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PATTERNS <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FEAR, BEING OVERWHELMED AND WITHDRAWING INTO ONESELF; GUILT AND SHAME; COMPENSATION, NEED FOR APPROVAL; LACK AND SURVIVAL.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>RIGHT<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">STRENGTH, KINDNESS, A SENSE OF INNOVATION AND FREEDOM FROM THE OLD, EVOLUTION, INDEPENDENCE, AND RESOLUTION OF PAST TRAUMAS.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>LEFT <\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MEMORY; ARTIFICIAL WORLD; CONVENTIONS; DISORDER; SURVIVAL.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AUTOMATISM OF THE LEFT HEMISPHERE THAT DEFENDS EVERYTHING THAT HAS BEEN NEUROLOGICALLY MEMORIZED.
