Smudging with Sound-Vibration

We often use the smoke of sacred herbs to smudge, to purify and cleanse ourselves; but sound-
vibration can also be used to smudge – the sound of a sacred bell or a small singing bowl, or
perhaps a rattle or a drum, among other instruments.

Essentially, offerings of sound-vibration are made, just as with the smoke to our Heavenly Father
and Earthly Mother, and to the Four Direction, East, West, South and North; then bringing the
instrument as close as possible to the object or person being smudged, moving in through the auric
field of the object or person, we smudge with sound-vibration by way of conscious intention.

In a similar manner, Divine Names may also be intoned within the energy field of an object or
person, also serving to purify and cleanse, and with Divine Names there is also a blessing and
sanctification, extending Divine Light or Shefa into the aura of the object or person.

Along a similar line, just as with Divine Names, those who know the way of the radiant holy breath,
having activated the holy breath, can also smudge with breath; blowing on a person or object they
can purify them, cleansing their field of energy from any residue of shades or shadows.

Sprinkling with holy or blessed water can also have the same basic effect as well.

The key, of course, is the conscious intention to purify and cleanse, and kavvanah and devekut
during the smudging ceremony – with this there are many vehicles that may be used for smudging
in sacred ceremony.

May we abide in the Great Natural Perfection; amen.

Blessings & shalom!
