"The whole universe is vibration. So when we make vibrations, we are communicating with the whole universe." --Madhu Anziani

Madhu Anziani: Healing Power of Sound

"Losing all of the basic functions of being a human being was the greatest teacher," says Madhu Anziani. "It was an opportunity to go fully into the teachings I had received around energy, sound, and vibration." At 23, a serious accident left him paralyzed from the neck down, incontinet, and unable to breathe on his own. Left to face the flurry of emotions in his mind, the musician was forced to discover the gaps between his thoughts, and the healing potential of his own voice. He began to apply sound practices from his hospital bed day and night. Two and a half months later, he walked out of the hospital on his own two legs. "The primary purpose of a voice is to create vibration," he describes, "We have this beautiful gift, and we can either create harmony or disharmony." Today, the musician-composer-healer-lecturer-ceremonialist lives in service to a grander harmony within himself, his ancestors and community at large.
