Emanations, Vibrations, Consciousness. . . . by Audra Skuodas Image: Title page (overlay): Emanations. . . Vibrations. . . Consciousness. . . It would be possible to describe everything scientifically, but it would make no sense. It would be a description without meaning as if you described a Beethoven Symphony as a variation of wave pressure. --Albert Einstein Different styles of music are equivalent to different dogmas of religion, whereas that sphere and source of energy consciousness we call God is One, Audra Skuodas 1998

Emanations, Vibrations, Consciousness. . . . by Audra Skuodas Image: Page 4 (underlay): Frequency -Vibration = the essential characteristics of recognition, communication, sensitivity and creativity in the realm beyond mind and intellect Every effect having its cause Mechanization = desensitization of frequency -- handwriting vs. print.

Emanations, Vibrations, Consciousness. . . . by Audra Skuodas Image: Page 6 (underlay): Kinesthesis -- the muscular effort accompanying a voluntary motion of body. Both the kinesthetic sense and the sensation of pain are paths whereby we enter the active responsibility of being alive. Pain fires a kinship. Elimination of all pain, all emotional sensation creates an opacity, a denseness, an inertness, an obliteration from Life -- an ossification of the capacity for subtle Vibrations.

Emanations, Vibrations, Consciousness. . . . by Audra Skuodas Image: Page 8 (underlay): Consciousness affects mind, mind affects matter Of mind and matter consciousness is the greater but the greater still is Consciousness, that which is tuned to all Vibration Frequency is Consciousness in motion.

Emanations, Vibrations, Consciousness. . . . by Audra Skuodas Image: Page 10 (underlay): The what which binds individuals and the cosmos to gather is not functional solidarities, but cycles of metamorphoses -- the solidarities stifle transcendent consciousness. The seed is the Synthesis growth the analysis -- body AND Spirit -- as the Spirit grows the cosmic receivership opens. Evil is the fruit if spiritual ignorance and can only be eliminated by spiritual enlargement i.e. Consciousness

Emanations, Vibrations, Consciousness. . . . by Audra Skuodas Image: Page 12 (underlay): We are short on inner spaces-- from early childhood we are bombarded and filled with screeching noise -- the banal, the ugly, the destructive, the violent, the grotesque, creating a density of conditioned accumulation -- the denser the aggregate the less pervious to Vibration -- the deader the matter the less responsive to Consciousness frequency.

Emanations, Vibrations, Consciousness. . . . by Audra Skuodas Image: Page 14 (underlay): The voice is the oldest of all instruments. -- the most sublime in its capacity to transmit the qualities of the Soul, another word for Consciousness. "It is the Heart which makes all that results come out, and it is the tongue which expresses and repeats the thought of the Heart. That is what causes all the Gods to be born. . . and every divine utterance manifests itself in thought of the head and speech of the tongue and touch of the hand. . ." --Ancient Egyptian Saying
Emanations, Vibrations, Consciousness. . . . by Audra Skuodas Image: Page 15: "The form is mechanic when on any given material we impress a predetermined form. The organic form, on the other hand is innate. It shapes as it develops itself from within. " -- Coleridge "Neitsche argued that the human race cannot be left to itself but must aim beyond itself and discover the great metamorphosis -- that of becoming. . . . The de-differentiation of the human and the inhuman, this re-absorption of the metaphor of life into the metastasis of survival is effected by a progressive reduction to the lowest common denominator. At the level of genes, the genome and the genotype, the signs distinctive of humanity, are fading: at least they no longer have symbiotic value, but merely a functional purpose. No more transfiguration, no more metaphors: immortality has passed into the biologocial genetic code. The only immortal token which remains, the only feature immortalized in living matter. We have the perpetual motion of the code, the metonymic eternity of cells. Generation by formulas, algebraic or genetic, has everywhere supplanted the play and destiny of forms. The worst thing is that the living beings generated by formula will not outlive their own formulas: they are therefore from the outset living on borrowed time. " Jean Baudrillard "The Illusion of the End" "the Immaterial is known by Scientific Thought Imagination the material by scientific proof, perception.' -- Seusipus
