Rhythm – inspiration and harmony

“How can I find the right channel for me to relate to others?,” asked Ferhelin*.

The Master Yogi** looked at her while he gestured with a long stick that he had found on the ground. Watching his gestures Ferhelin was reminded of an orchestra conductor as she listened to the phrases of the Master Yogi.

“Perceiving his rhythm,” he responded. “Rhythm! That is the key word. Each person has a rhythm that is most natural for them. Generally, people with problems have lost the rhythm or have deviated from it. If you are within your rhythm, in your natural frequency, you have an increased chance of perceiving the ‘ideal’ rhythm of the other person. Maybe you can’t change this person, but you can inspire them to harmonize with the rhythms of those closest to them. You are making a better choice, instead of maintaining your frozen image on your mental screen. In other words, you are choosing to harmonize a channel that is present, hoping for the chance to place it on the screen.

Ferhelin remembered the natural law of physics that stated that each element in nature had its own frequency.
The rain decreased, and they moved back on to the trail to continue their walk to the mountain. Ferhelin felt as if she were in the company of both, the Master Yogi and the ever present mountain.

During the walk, silence was a constant companion of the two. There was a relative harmony between the two hikers.
After a long pause, Ferhelin affirmed, “All this allows me to relate to the resonance.”
“Relate? What does she mean to say with this?” The Master asked the meaning of the statement to himself.
She clarified saying, “It is a natural phenomenon, studied in physics, where two waves resonate on their own frequency. When the two frequencies are combined they create a third frequency, or a variation of one of the frequencies. This results in an harmony that is a function common to the two waves. The question is, how does one reach this state when dealing with human beings?”

The Master Yogi who was walking by her side looked into her eyes as he spoke, “It begins with knowing yourself. You must perceive, understand and come to respect your natural rhythm. What is important for you to understand is that your natural rhythm exists and that it is inside of you,” concluded the Master Yogi.”
