Here I go again with another of Shelly at This Eclectic Life's great ideas. It's called "My Neck of the Woods" and she got onto the idea to write about cool places to visit in our own areas, that maybe people who visit might miss. I think some of it for her was to help dispel the kind of generalities that we have about places we travel, but I'm not sure what kind of misconceptions about the High Desert of Southern California I might be able to dispel. In fact, if the deserts of California and Nevada bring thoughts of cactus and Area 51, UFO's and Nuclear Test Sites, Gold Mines and crazy old prospectors, I might be actually confirming your prejudice!
If you happen to be traveling out this way, and are in the mood for something quirky and fun, or something ancient and artistic, or something thought-provoking and spiritual, I just might be able to point you in the right direction.
The Integratron
Kinda trippy lookin', huh?
The Integratron is the creation of George Van Tassel, and is based on the design of Moses’ Tabernacle, the writings of Nikola Tesla and telepathic directions from extraterrestrials. This one-of-a-kind building is a 38-foot high, 55-foot diameter, non-metallic structure originally designed by Van Tassel as a rejuvenation and time machine. Today, it is the only all-wood, acoustically perfect sound chamber in the U.S.
Over at the Integratron site, the Sound Bath is the Integratron's signature experience, described as:
The Sound Bath is a 30-minute sonic healing session that you can experience while resting comfortably in the Integratron's highly resonant, multi-wave sound chamber. We play 9 quartz crystal singing bowls live, each one keyed to the energy centers or chakras of the body, where sound is nutrition for the nervous system. Imagine lying on comfy mats in the center of this relaxing and resonant high-energy field, while having your body bathed in exquisite sound for 30 minutes. The results are waves of peace, heightened awareness, and relaxation of the mind and body.
I hope you'll stop by Thorne's World and read a little more about this cool place and my experiences there in My Neck of the Woods!
Peace, out!
