The suggested structure of the meditation is as follows:
45 minutes of meditative music followed by 15 minutes of silence.
The 45 minutes of music may also contain shorter periods of silence i.e. between different musical keys.
The 15 minutes of silence please allow to be totally silent.
There are tens of thousands of didj enthusiasts around the world. So lets all play didj together on 20 March 2004 at sunset and
if you haven't got one, join us anyway.
This meditation is open to all people. If someone or a group of people wishing to participate do not have any didj, simply use
other instruments and/or your voice; listen to a didj CD, hum, or just be in inner silence.
What matters is the intent!
If there are several didjes and/or other instrument at one gathering, please take responsibility for musical harmony. Having several
didjes in non-harmonious keys playing at the same time can be quite nervy and discordant. And we want to create harmony and not cacophony.
So if there are several didjes in different keys, I suggest you allow for several segments of music (with a short silence in between)
so different keys can be played at different times.
I also ask that the didj is the primary instrument. Other instruments are welcome to support the didjes present but should be
asked to not overpower them. You may encourage people to do some toning or overtone singing, this is very nice with the didj.
If possible I like to encourage everyone to play their didj and other instruments close to peoples bodies (I myself choose very
light didjes so I can walk around and play directly onto peoples bodies).
Please share with all participants that this is a world-wide meditation and ask them to use sound and silence to send a wave of
energy around the world.
The quality of this energy is to be of growing awareness, healing, soothing the extremes, relaxation, connecting with nature and
other human beings, acceptance of different beliefs and customs, the willingness to share and cooperate.
Please make it clear that this is a meditative event and ask for the silence to be respected. |
