Healing the Family through Resonant Chanting to Restore Order
Healing through harmonics is to tap into the resonant field and bring it into order. What I found interesting about Jill Purce is her fundamental understanding of spirals and frequency as an underlying pattern in the universe. What interested me was her ability to use chanting to heal families. I hadn’t heard of that before but it seems to work on the principle of harmonics.
I recall on my world trip meeting a lady who used tuning forks for healing and she had a whole array of them and would hit them and you could hear different pitches, some high and some lower but the idea is that it works with the chakra energy system and brings into balance the body.
That would be a lot cheaper than medical interventions. The only testimony to this is if it works.
Her goal is to heal humanity. A noble idea.
Our blueprint harmonises with universal patterns and energy matrices. We are not what we think and harmonics takes us out of the thinking mind into the mind of universal intelligence.
The first part of this blog looks briefly at the mystical spiral which I felt inspired to write about in my poetry and then family healing through resonant fields and her bibliography.

The Spiral
- The spiral is a natural form of growth,
- and has become, in every culture and every
- age, humanity’s symbol of the progress of the soul towards eternal life.
- As the inward winding labyrinth, it constitutes the hero’s journey to the still centre where the secret of life is found. As the spherical vortex, spiralling through its own centre, it combines the inward and outward directions of movement. In this original and engrossing book, Jill Purce traces the significance of one of our central symbols from the double spirals of the Chinese Yin Yang symbol to the whorls of Celtic crosses, Maori tattoos and the Islamic arabesque. Many of the superb images here were intended as objects of contemplation; for the spiral is a cosmic symbol.
- “The “Mystic Spiral” is the clearest expression I have ever come across of the system I have glimpsed in the intuitive flashes my poems are composed of. The bones of the universe, one potent sunbird structure. Ms. Purce is the magic maiden with the skeleton key that opens a myriad of doors.”
- George Andrews – Poet and author.
- “Jill Purce’s book is extraordinary, it shows the spiral going through all the manifestations of life- art, music, literature, dance, religion, mythology, physics, biology, botany and astronomy. Everything is spiral. She points to the unity of the cosmos, and acts as a counterbalance to the atomization of the world. There are hundreds of wonderful illustrations. She gives you the key – like the thread of Ariadne which leads you out of the labyrinth.”
- Karlheinz Stockhausen in “Stockhausen, Conversations With The Composer” by Jonathan Cott.
- Mere words can not do justice to the beauty of this book. Elegant, graceful, profound, these spirals embody such concepts as eternity, evolution, birth and death, expansion and contraction, the Tao, and God.”
- Stanley Krippner in “Association for Humanistic Psychology Newsletter”.
- “The Mystic spiral, together with its spiritual message, has much to tell us architects of the laws of growth and its archetypal forms. This would help us design buildings which are within the flow of nature rather than in opposition to it.”
- Professor of Architecture, Birmingham School of Architecture.
