A Study to Explore the Effects of Sound Vibrations on Consciousness
International Journal of Social Work and Human Services Practice Horizon Research Publishing Vol.6. No.3 July, 2018, pp. 75-88 A Study to Explore the Effects of Sound Vibrations on Consciousness Meera Raghu Independent Researcher, New Zealand Abstract Sound is a form of energy produced by cause happiness, joy, courage or calmness, dissonant vibrations caused by movement of particles. Sound can intervals can cause tension, anger, fear or sadness, thereby travel through solids (such as metal, wood, membranes), affecting the emotional aspect of consciousness. liquids (water) and gases (air). The sound vibrations that reach our ear are produced by the movement of particles in Keywords Consciousness, Sound, Vibration, Music, the air surrounding the source of sound. The movement or Emotion, Chladni, Pattern, Energy vibration of particles produces waves of sound. Sound waves are longitudinal and travel in the direction of propagation of vibrations. The pitch of sound is related directly to its frequency, which is given by the number of Introduction vibrations or cycles per second. The higher the pitch of sound, the higher is its frequency, and the lower the pitch, Sound is everywhere. There is perpetual movement and the lower is its frequency. Human ear can hear sounds of action in the world around us, and this produces a variety of frequencies ranging from 20 – 20,000 cycles per second (or sounds, such as those coming from Nature, from animals, Hertz – Hz). Sound waves can be visually seen and studied those generated by humans in the form of speech or music, using ‘Chladni’ plates, which was devised and those that are generated by vehicles, machines, gadgets that experimented by Ernst Chladni, a famous physicist with a are used for comfort, leisure and convenience.
