Vibration and the LBRP

I am not aware if this question has been asked before, but if it has,
forgive my ignorance.

I was wondering as to which way one should vibrate names. Should each
syllable be given a whole breath for vibration or should the entire
name flow out within a single breath (meaning less time for each
syllabilic vibration). I have tried the first last night and it seemed
to be of a much stronger quality, but I'd like an official view to
confirm.

Some other questions I have had on the LBRP can be viewed in the
latest entry on my LiveJournal:

Good question. :)

It should be delivered in one fluid breath, vocalizing the vowel sounds as deeply as possible, extending the name for the duration of the breath. That's the way I've usually seen it done, and have always done it that way. I seems to extend the energies more fluidly.

Yeah, just like that.

We could liken the Vibratory Fourmula to a radio frequency...the more accurately the sounds are made, the more effective the results will be - similarly, the closer one gets to an exact radio frequency, the more clear the sounds will be.

Firstly, I would say that every question is a new question at this point. I hope that the mods and members allow for some rehashing of covered, yet lost, topics.

Beyond that, this is a great question. My experience has been that it doesn't matter so much how it's done, as long as it feels right for you. While I prefer the great voice, when I have vibrated the names outloud, I make sure that I breathe deeply and use my stomach to control the sound. It is deep and resonating.

Next, I would remind you that this is not just a sound effect. I suggest that you should also visualize your body charging with raw energy as you breathe in, then focusing that energy on the power and divinity of that divine name as you exhale and speak it, sensing the very Universe resonate with your call.

I hope this helps! :)

(Sorry I have no idea how to make those links)
I hope they help you too!

Thank you everyone for the information and opinions. They have helped greatly. :)

Some questions on the mp3 file for Kuroi Kaze:

Firstly, it sounds to me like some of the syllables are receiving more/less stress than others, and I have read/been told that each should be giving the same ammount of stress. Is this, like many parts of the ritual, a matter of opinion and taste?

Secondly, "Ve-Geburah" and "Ve-Gedulah" sounds to me like stressing the "Ve" and the "Ah" syllable of the following word, and more pronouncing the two sullables in between. Is this correct or just a matter of personal taste/experience?

Thirdly, there is the matter of "Ve" itself being pronounced as "Vay" or "Vee". I have been told to pronounce it as "Veh", so again I summise the opinion of "taste".

Lastly, it sounds like there could be a slight elongation made to the vibrations as a whole (i.e. there's more room in one breath for a longer vibration. Of course, this is only what it sounds like to me, for I have not heard myself vibrating the names from an outside, objective manor). This point, of course, is more advice from myself and has no real grounds. You have, however, welcomed constructive criticism, Kuroi Kaze, so this is the minor point I would mention. The other questions are more a matter of inquisitiveness on my behalf.

Please forgive my insistance on the small matters like this, but in some ways I want to know that I have "perfected" my own way of doing the ritual, and part of this is by knowing other people's opinions and experiences with the different pronounciations, etc.

Actually, the mp3 thing has just spawned the idea in my mind that I could record my own practicing of said ritual and then listen to it with a more objective ear. Thank you kindly all, for your replies were in great haste and of great quality. :)

Over the years I have experimented and modified accents and syllables for various vibratory formulae. The LBRP is merely one of many instances where you will employ this technique.

I would not fret over such small details and instead focus on the "feel". We are all unique and our approaches will inevitably vary. More important than seeking perfection in these minutia allow yourself to be inflamed in grandness of the whole experience.

Feeling your vibration throughout yourself and so throughout the cosm is the key. The rest is all just methodology. You will "know" it when you do it.

Great MP3 btw I have it added to my various magickal media folder....

I agree with Frater Manjet. The way of pronouncing these words of power is based on educated guesses at best. Experience has shown me that pronounciation and pitch do matter, but that everyone individual is wired differently. That everyone must find his/her own way of doing things. The way I vibrate the words of power is based on what a friend of mine who helped me out with the vibratory technique taught me, but it evolved over time (and is still evolving), thus having a more personal "accent" and becoming a more personal thing.

Frater Manjet 06-13-2004 08:07 AM

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In regards to your MP3 Kuroi Kaze I want to discuss a major difference.

I used to chant the statements and phrases other than the words of power in a similar way. I have since switched to a less chanting/vibrating method to a more declarative mode, much as the statement / declaration of the pentagram and hexagram in your MP3.

( I declare ) "Before me!... ( I vibrate ) Rapheal etc....

I find it gives me a much stronger sense of command and sovreignty in my working. Have you experimented with this type of approach? If so what were your impressions?

When I played the MP3 above, my cat who was sitting on the table suddenly jumped in shock and stared at the speaker when the vibration was uttered. Cats are sensitive, I suppose.

More important than the minutia...

I just wanted to emphasize this statement by our esteemed Frater Manjet. It's one of those statements that gives a glowing sense of "YES!" right in my gut. One can tend to overlook this, including myself, when they're knee-deep in Kabbalah or Crowleyana or some other form of scientific illuminism.

Here is another site with audio...though, ummm...it's a bit different, it's got like bells & laughter(?).

It was made fer interenet radio, so I guess it's a bit more showy...but it does link up to a Tuvan throat singing site as well as a study guide.

I did try this, but it made the ritual less continuous and flowing for me.

Frater Manjet 06-14-2004 12:25 AM

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Interesting... I can see how that would lend itself in that regard. It is amazing to me how even something as subtle as this can make such a difference amongst individuals, at the same time be intrinsicly true to the ritual.

My declarations are vibratory in a way. They are just very seperate from the words of power. I feel them resonate, but they have a far different feel.

I hope these discussions help others realize the diversity within an appearantly strict format. There is much more flexibilty then at first appears.

Thank you all for furthering the discussion into other grounds. I had intended to mention the vibration of declarations, but it slipped my mind. Since it's not a name, I don't feel inclinded to vibrate it. The direct statement of "Before me..." tends to work best for me.

I have another question though, this one regarding visualisation of the pentagram. Over the past few days the image of the white pentagrams have changed to hexagrams and I don't know why. I've tried really hard to visualise the pentagram, but the hexagram keeps overwriting it. I know this might be alleviated with more practice, but I'd like to make sure I'm practicing the right symbol within the ritual of intent. Has anyone else experience this or know of whats to combat it? I suppose I could just look at a pentagram for a few minutes prior to the ritual and hope its shape imprints itself onto my mind?

Frater Manjet 06-14-2004 02:17 AM

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So... are you actualy tracing pentagrams and "seeing" hexagrams? Am I following you correctly?

If so this IS a big issue as your focus of intent must not be swayed hither and thither. If one is working the pentagrams then one should "see" or at least know that they are such. This must be addressed as soon as possible. The higher workings are very dependent on visualization of much more complex imagery.

PM me if you wish some private assistance on how we can address this if you wish.

Thank you for this MP3, Q. I never heard it before. Very cool! :)

The ontario LBRP link was posted before but although I got the MP3, I never kept a record of the site - thanks for posting up the link again! I have this, Kuroi's MP3 and Regardie doing an excerpt. I play them on loop at work as a sort of meditation/training tape! Sometimes on speakers when I want to be left alone!

Since hearing the ontario mp3 I switched to the vocal declaration of the phrases too, but in a Jaz Coleman-esque shriek.

Where did you get the Regardie excerpt, The Other Steve?

It was on the thread we had previously discussing vibration - with Kuroi's excellent MP3 and the link to the Ontario LBRP. I believe there is a CD made from the original wax cylinder recordings of Regardie available, although I cannot remember from whom. It's a cert that someone on these boards has a copy though.

The excerpt in question is only 30 seconds, but zips nicely to 310 kb if you want to PM your e-mail address to me.

EDIT - try 156184201X on Amazon.com

Yes, a friend sent me the Regardie LBRP (the full version, not the sample) and it was very helpful, especially how he pronounces the Tetragrammaton.

I've always been told the vibrations are of a much higher pitch, which I've always felt sounded like very creepy singing. I would love to hear Regardie vibrate the God names so if you can, could you post his vibration of the LBRP?

Celtic SoulFire 07-01-2004 12:26 AM

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't have a website, but if you use any kind of messenger I could send you it through there (It's too large for email). You should be wary though - some of the names aren't stressed as I feel they should be, but then Regardie is far more adept than I, so perhaps a seemingly subtle vibration works just as good for him. A feel a strong high-pitch vibration works best - gives that otherworldly feel to it (and matches my experience of Buddhist mantras).
