dear rhonda, nancy, and all,
this is some of the core material i've been most interested in myself. rhonda - to answer your question, i too, had heard about the "sound and light" as god in expression as given in surat shabd yoga, from personal initiation. k paul johnson, in his bk "edgar cayce in context" noted parallels as well as differences in meditation descriptions given by radhasoami (shabd yogic path) sect of hinduism. ever the researcher, johnson provided info had not seen before with examination of cayce readings on meditation. he shared how the basics had been given prior to a reading given for a certain man, a mr. thind who was a follower of shabd yoga. he wondered if readings could have been influenced by some kind of precognitive sampling or "coloration". my research area was in cayce readings disclosure of "beautiful music " heard in meditation, and that represents some of the parallel given. there is much in ra material about this.(yes, nancy, you are very correct about the greater coverage!). under study now to better understand what steiner taught about this. nina

a sample of the "greater scope" is reflected in the title of a bk by waldorf school doctor armin husemann, "the harmony of the human body:musical principles in human physiology". (his father was co-author of " anthroposophical approach to medicine").get a sense of just how involved music is from back cover!
"an explopration of the cosmic origins of human beings and the evolutionary laws which govern their developement.
armin husemann applies musical principles as a method of gaining insight into the structure of the human body and the forces that work on it, he seeks to utilize our experience of music and explain the physiological and anatomical relationships in the body, as well as illuminate the spiritual influences which determine physical development.
drawing on artistic exercises set out by rudolf steiner to develop a better understanding of these influences, the book explains the cosmic origins of human beings and the evolutionary laws which govern their development."
