BEYOND THE MOZART EFFECT
 
MAHARISHI GANDHARVA VEDA
MUSIC TO ENHANCE YOUR INTELLIGENCE
Music and Intelligence Connection
Did you know that listening to music can
actually increase your intelligence? Many people have heard of
the "Mozart Effect". According to this theory, listening to certain
types of music, e.g. classical, can help people to improve test
scores, cut learning time, become calm when hyperactive, reduce
errors, improve creativity and clarity and integrate both sides
of the brain for more efficient learning. It can even improve your
IQ, by up to 10 points in some cases.
Maharishi Gandharva Veda - Beyond the
Mozart Effect
Recent studies are also showing that the
ancient music of India, Maharishi Gandharva Veda, can be beneficial
to the mind and learning process, even more than the effects of
Mozart and other classical music.
Dr. Sorflaten Unearths the Key to Learning
- Gandharva Veda
Back in 1995, research scientist Theresa
Olson-Sorflaten was enjoying the soothing sounds of Gandharva Veda
when she thought to herself, "I wonder if this music is as beneficial
to the mind as Mozart?"
She immediately organized a research project to see
if the benefits of listening to Gandharva Veda could
be measured. After rounding up many willing participants
and documenting the effects of this music on their
brain waves, Theresa's findings convincingly confirmed
her suspicions that Maharishi Gandharva Veda has an
extremely integrating effect on human brain functioning.
Theresa's subjects displayed markedly increased brain
wave activity in the Alpha- Beta- Delta- and Theta
ranges, indicating that intelligence was notably enhanced.
Moreover, these people displayed decreased tension,
decreased irritability, and less lethargy, all qualities
that can enhance learning (Olson-Sorflaten, Theresa,
1995, USA; Rasmussen, Orme-Johnson and Wallace, 1990,
USA).
Dr. Sharma Finds Possible Cure For Cancer
- Gandharva Veda
Another researcher felt rejuvenated physically
when listening to Gandharva Veda, and he set out to determine whether
or not listening to Gandharva Veda was in fact beneficial to the
body. He organized a project whereby he clinically measured the
impact of a type of Gandharva Veda (Sama Veda) on the growth of
cancer cells.
His findings were incredible. He found that the growth of five
types of cancer cells (lung, intestine, brain, breast and skin)
was actually retarded when exposed to Gandharva Veda (Sharma H.M.,
Kauffman E.M., Dudek A., and Stephens, 1996). Dr. Sharma's research
revealed that Gandharva Veda can not only enhance the natural creativity
and intelligence of your mind, it can also help your body stay
balanced and healthy!
Music To Study, Work, Play, and Relax
By - How To Use Gandharva Veda
Often described as "the music of nature," Maharishi
Gandharva Veda can help enhance creativity, intelligence, learning
capacity and relaxation of the mind.
Do you ever come home from a long day at work and find
it difficult to unwind? Just slip a Gandharva Veda
CD into your player, put your feet up for a while,
and let the melodies soothe your soul. Better yet,
play the music quietly while you're at work and you'll
feel more effective and less stressed throughout the
day.
You can keep the volume very low, practically inaudible,
and the value will be the same. Gandharva music works
on the level of the frequencies of nature. Music is
a flow of sound, and sound is a vibration or frequency.
Physicists tell us that everything in creation is also
a frequency at its basis. Playing Maharishi Gandharva
Veda music 24 hours a day in your home and office will
enliven frequencies of harmony and integration in your
surroundings.
Play Gandharva Veda quietly when you're studying to
enhance the creativity and orderliness of your mind.
Keep the volume low so it won't interfere with your
focus. You'll find you absorb more knowledge faster,
easier, and more effectively. Your mind will naturally
assimilate knowledge better if you're tuned into the
frequencies of nature.
Do you sometimes have trouble sleeping? Simply play
Gandharva Veda quietly at night to help you relax and
fall asleep. You'll find yourself drifting away on
waves of peaceful well-being, and you'll wake up refreshed
the next day.
Real Life Experiences With Gandharva
Veda
"I play Gandharva Veda quietly in the
background when I find myself overwhelmed with challenging projects
from numerous clients. Somehow, the music helps me settle to a
place where I can accomplish many tasks with a low level of stress."
Christine Schrum, Writer
and Editor
"Gandharva Veda is unlike
any other music. After listening to it, my thinking
actually feels more coherent. The useless clutter is
gone from my mind, and I find knowledge sinks in much
easier and on a much deeper level."
Jennie Rothenberg, Masters
Student, UC Berkeley
"Gandharva music is as
inspiring as the best Western classical music but even
more expansive, both soothing and enlivening at the
same time. It reminds me of being in nature where sounds
effortlessly flow into each other, sometimes surprisingly
but always with acceptance and super fluid grace while
unfolding sequentially. I always sleep better after
listening to Gandharva music."<
Jimmy Moore, Musician,
Music Columnist and Music Teacher
"My personal experience
with Maharishi Gandharva Veda has been the increase
of bliss and a lot of silence in my physiology, in
my heart, in my whole life."
Florence Butet, Student
