The Hopi
Indians have a prophecy that is being fulfilled
with the “Coming of the Rainbow People.”
In this prophecy they speak of the keepers of
crystal bowls. I was not aware of this
prophecy until recently, and I really felt a
sense of belonging. Could I be one of the
Rainbow People? I had several visions in
1995 of me sitting among a circle of bowls, at
first I thought they were drums. I laughed
at myself and thought “how great to play the
drums.” However the visions became
stronger and clearer throughout the year.
Then one day a friend came to me and asked me if
I had heard of the crystal bowls or ever
listened to them. He showed me one bowl
and began playing it, I felt like a ton of
bricks knocked me over. That’s exactly
what I had envisioned, now the task of finding
them, I did and I was ecstatic. At first I
played the bowls in a single line and then in a
circle around me. I have been playing
crystal bowls for several years now and I have
reaped the benefits from their healing
capabilities. Crystal bowls have emerged
from the concept of the Tibetan Brass Temple
Bowl, they are highly effective tools, capable
of inducing a profound, positive, beautiful and
beneficial altered state of consciousness.
I use these bowls in healings, meditations, and
chakra attunements. There are seven major
energy centers in the body commonly referred to
as chakras. They are responsible for
inflows and outflows of energy into and between
the various bodies (physical, mental, emotional,
and spiritual). Each chakra corresponds to
the vibration of a specific musical note the
bowl is tuned to. A healthy chakra is able
to attract or release energy as needed.
They can open to positive influences & close to
harmful influences. An unhealthy, blocked
chakra can lead to phobias, irrational emotions
and thoughts. The bowls act as an
inter-dimensional bridge and helps us reach into
ourselves, awakening the cellular memory and
healing the energetic body. In 1995 I was
diagnosed with Graeves Disease, a hyper-thyroid.
The only option I had, from the medical staff,
was to destroy my thyroid and put me on
medication the rest of my life, that was not an
option. My method was self-healing, I
needed to find the root of the problem. Why was
my throat chakra blocked, what truths were I not
telling? This took work and
self-exploration, not where I wanted to be at
the time. I was not telling lies to
others, it was to myself and I evidently found
the hidden truth. I changed my entire life
style and I worked with the throat chakra bowl.
After six months my Graeves Disease was gone,
the doctors never heard of that without
destroying the thyroid completely. I also
use the bowls in group settings or with
individuals. While an individual is being
massaged the bowls create a safe, quiet, relaxed
environment and consciousness in less time than
the rocking technique massage therapists use.
When a person is in this altered state they
become clearer to read and I am able to pick up
on the blocks of their chakras and help with the
healing process as they receive the physical and
spiritual healing as one. In a group
setting, several things have occurred from
hysterical laughter to heart wrenching sobs.
I know that these individuals are being touch
and healed through my bowls.
Am I a Keeper of the Bowl?
Some might say yes, others are not sure.
But I know, at least for my bowls, I am.
