For this discussion, however, we want to slightly shift our focus a bit from that of earlier similar discussions we’ve had with you.

We want to talk about vibrations and how your vibration influences Universe’s response to you and what you ask for, or pray for, or however you put your desires out there.

By its own Law of Attraction, Universe must respond to your predominant vibration, your predominant focus.

If your focus and, therefore, your vibration, are positive--that is, centered on what you want in your life--the Universe will deliver to you what you want. And if your focus-vibration are mostly about what you don’t want, Universe will deliver to you what you don’t want.

It’s that simple.

So, to put this in context of this discussion--your physical bodies, your physical well-being--you must focus on state of health you wish to experience.

As John said, his healing experience was a minor one. But, as he also said, principle is same in much more serious situations. And healing can be as fast, even in cases of so-called terminal illnesses. Those healings you usually call miracles.

It is no more complicated to create a complete healing of, say terminal cancer, than it is to create healing of a painful ankle.

Friends, it’s all a matter of focus and belief. Do you believe you can be healed? Do you believe you deserve to be healed? If you do, then you are already healed. Ask and you shall receive. It may not happen instantly. But it can.

And it doesn’t really matter how long it takes--a minute or a year or more. All that matters is this: your body’s natural state is that of perfect health. When you put out intention to have your body in a state of perfect health, you’ve started healing.

And healing must be accomplished unless you get in way. The Universe and your body will marshal all their considerable resources to bring you and your body back to its natural state.

You are in control here. Your body and Universe will do your bidding. Focus on perfect health and well-being, and they are yours.

Since 1992, John Cali has been communicating with a spirit called Joseph. In one of his many physical lifetimes, this spirit was incarnated as the legendary Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce tribe in what is now Oregon.

The spiritual adventure of creating this CD continued with several other recording sessions adding more cultures and more voices. Local artist Lisamarie Kirkess added a beautiful, healing Quan Yin chant. Carol Levy offered her beautiful vocal with two Jewish chants. Jamie Lampert, Chelsea Thompson and Quincy Wise, all students of Paula’s, added their vocals to children’s chant, Funga Alafia.

Then in March of 2002 Paula happened to meet Hans Jurgen Kary (Hansadutta dasa) through her good friend and local teacher Jim Seymour and adventure continued. Hansadutta, a local Swami from Hare Krishna faith offered a complete Kirtan (chanting and eating tradition). The Hare Krishna chant was recorded in April of 2002 with 6 Krishna devotees, Nakula dasa, Vishwambhara dasa, Lokanatha dasa, Gadadhara dasa, Jim Seymour and Radha Towle. They were joined by Pat Gear, Paula Gilbert, Rick Gilbert, Tory Rotlisberger, Crystal Sanchez, and Mal & Elise Tornay. Hansadutta spent time with The Beatles in 60’s when they were in India learning about Krishna. After each chanting session (even at recording studio) we all ate a wonderful vegetarian dinner prepared by Hansadutta and devotees.

After some more time passed and graphics were created for CD, Paula added "I Love You Chant" by Chanara, her teacher and friend now living in Santa Fe, NM, and final recording session was done by Paula Gilbert with her beautiful rendition of Shiva mantra in Sanskrit which translated means "I honor divine within".

The album was recorded, edited and mixed by Joe Hoffmann Studios, Occidental, CA. The photographs were done by Joe Hoffmann, and CD graphics manufacturing were done by Paul Bacon of KABA Audio Productions — www.kabaaudio.com. The website was created by David Rose of d2m interactive web design in San Jose.

The album has been selling well in local stores and on-line at www.chantingforhealing.com. This year they have raised enough money to do a good donation to each charity beginning in January. Next year they hope to give even more.

Chanting is a wonderful way to relax; chanting calms and clears mind of random thought. It is also very interesting to note that every culture chants, every culture is interested in communing with their divine self and every culture strives for inner peace and has a name for God. Paula believes, as we create this peace inside each one of us, so shall world be peaceful.

We all came together in hope of creating a statement that says — We all want to get along — We all want world to get along and we know this is possible.
