The Earth resonates at an extremely low frequency. Known as “the Schumann Resonance,” this natural rhythm of the Earth precisely corresponds with the human brain’s alpha wave frequencies—the frequency at which we enter into & come out of sleep as well as the frequency of deep meditation, inspiration & problem solving. Sound experiments performed around the world reveal that sacred sites & structures like stupas, pyramids, temples & cathedrals also resonate at these special frequencies when acoustically activated by chanting & singing, leading directly to altered states of consciousness for those present. Did our ancestors select & build their sacred sites according to the rhythms of the Earth?

Exploring the acoustic connections between the Earth, the human brain & sacred spaces, David Elkington shows how humanity maintained a direct line of communication with Mother Earth & the Divine through the construction of sacred sites, such as Stonehenge, Newgrange, Machu Picchu, Chartres Cathedral & the pyramids of both Egypt & Mexico. He reveals how human writing in its original hieroglyphic form was a direct response to the divine sound patterns of sacred sites, showing how, for example, recognizable hieroglyphs appear in sand patterns when the sacred frequencies of the Great Pyramid were activated.

Looking at ancient hero legends—those about the bringers of important knowledge or language— Elkington explains how these myths from the beginning of civilization & the acoustic science behind them, form the source of ancient religion & have a unique mythological resonance, as do the sites associated with them. The author reveals how religion, including Christianity, is an ancient language of acoustic science given expression by the world’s sacred sites & shows that power places played a profound role in the development of human civilization.
