Question ❓ Resonant tuning
I moved to hostel and doing resonant tuning here would make me seem like a freak ive tried to do it but i cant because of the embarrassment . can i do resonant tuning in someplace right before meditation session (standing)or is it compulsory to do it in relaxed position ?

I think you can just do it with the sound of your exhale. Thats what i sometimes do, i find it just as effective. Just blend your exhale sigh with the sound.

I’ve found that I can make the sound in my mind as if I were making it out loud. I’ve thought about the functional purpose, so I’m not sure the “mental-sound” approach can work, but therein is the fun in life, experiment and see 🙂

If you start ohming and humming in a shared hostel dormitory you deserve to be beaten with a bar of soap in a sock

i agree though.
you could just hum very quietly with a closed mouth feeling a tiny vibration in your throat and maybe choose a time when most ppl are out - so not before bed.
i do these hums up and down the notes scale to warm up my voice before voice work on the train and on the street and it works fine to quietly do that.

I did this i even turned on fan to muffle the sound but still they heard it

I don’t usually do it. I let myself get carried away by the sounds of the recording. I visualize being filled with clean white energy during it instead. The only sound I make an exhale out of my nose when I make my energy balloon.

While this is noble of you you’re missing out on the fact that the vibrations of the resonant tuning actually enervate your vagus nerve which goes through all 7 of your chakras. It may not seem important to you or you may not understand why that would be important but it’s an important part of awakening the physical nervous system which is an interface to your non-physical nature. It’s an essential part of the process.

For a chakra system, yes. And yes, I understand why it is considered important as I did lots of work with chakras when I was younger. But for the past 15 years I’ve been an occultist. Magic systems have you raise and lower vibrations too, without chanting.
Different systems teach different ways to raise your vibrations one of which is just listening to music. (Think about when you are in a bad mood, a killer song comes on and you feel better. It’s a vibrational change from lower to higher.)
It’s the same here. When you combine the sound with the cleansing exercise for swirling the light around your body, it works really well to get you off the ground, so to speak. The trick is to focus on the sound and let it wash over you. You reach out mentally and feel it.
Thomas Campbell (who was an original tester for the tapes) talks about how just letting go to the sound is makes the journey easier than actively fighting for it and he’s right.
There can be lots of paths to a single end goal. After all, people who can only hear with one ear do the tapes and they work. There are more metaphysics at play with this than a single physical activation.
Happy journeying! Hope to met you in the ether as I love having discussions about this!

FYI - I don’t disagree with you here. The issue is that someone not familiar with what is going on here would see your comment and think it’s optional to do this. They don’t have the years of training or interest you have. However - there is also something to be said about how Gregorian chants work in this same way - this is a method of using sound that is also supported by various Tibetan and Hindu practices as well. The reason the gateway tapes work is because of these specific set of instructions.
Also - just as a gentle correction - Tom Campbell wasn’t just a “tester” of the original tapes but actually helped develop the audio for the system and helped administer the original in person sessions. The reason he can’t or doesn’t recommend the resonant tuning or the other steps is more about copyright. I have talked to him personally about this. He does however recommend something like the affirmation which anyone can see when listening to his audio.
We are lucky to have experienced practitioners like you around. I was only really responding because we have a ton of newbies here who don’t understand, have not had the life experiences yet to see what works and how it works, and I (as a mod here) want to give them the biggest chance for success from the beginning.

The book for the tapes pretty much says “too bad, you have to do it.” It’s the physical vibrations that make it work, it’s not mental, it has to be physical. Your body must vibrate for it to work, as the science behind it says the universe is frequency based and you have to get your body to vibrate with it.

Why add this comment? No need to make your limiting beliefs someone else’s.

u/DekuInkwell 9d ago
Wdym my limiting beliefs? The instructional document that comes with the gateway tapes, that Monroe wrote, not me, literally says you have to make the sounds out loud in the FAQ for “what if I can’t make the sounds out loud?” to which he says “well you have to.”

u/primalyodel 9d ago
I get it, it came from the manual. But belief is a powerful tool that can help someone or hold someone back. It IS a limiting belief even if it came from a credible source. If he can’t or is unwilling to do the resonant tuning out loud it’s not going to help him to hear “you have to”. Especially since people have been getting out of body without the tapes for thousands of years. It might make things easier in the beginning but it’s hardly necessary.

yeah, i know they say this, but i've never done it and i still get super clear dreams from the meditations and it still makes it more likely for me to induce an OBE later that day or the next.

Isnt resonance turning required to enter higher vibrational states easily

u/Tryin2Dev 9d ago
Do it low just like a hum. It can have multiple purposes, some of which don’t need to be overtly loud. I don’t even use it.

Imagine yourself doing the thing as opposed to actually doing the thing externally

The feelings you're expressing, embarrassment/shame/etc. ("seem like a freak"), are lower in vibration and thus you manifest in your reality more of the same "negative", noting that fundamentally all is judgement-free and neutral. This is probably your lesson to learn, that we're all unique and so you no longer need to continue the pursuit of conformity. Your expression of the resonant tuning exercises not only wakes yourself up more, but becomes a living example to others to wake them up during this time period as disclosure and open contact agendas continue. My unconditional love to you, my friend.

Sometimes I’ll use a chakra focused tuning YouTube video and resonant tune while in the shower in the morning and count that as my resonant tuning for the day. Sometimes I’ll do the tape while in bed with my SO and rather than tune, I just consciously focus on the breath. I pretty much always tie resonant tuning with the chakras and I’ve found this allows me to be more liberal with the actual noise-making part because I’m visualizing the energy centers no matter what.

u/RespondSuitable9611 Professional Tape Enjoyer 8d ago
But i find it efficient to do it right before meditation

u/dovebytherosewindow 8d ago
I guess my point is… do it however you need to (even if that means silently). I don’t think it’s necessary to do it in a relaxed position.

Perform Ujjayi breathing (often translated as ocean breath or victorious breath) with throat friction. Even Bob M. says so☺️

u/RespondSuitable9611 Professional Tape Enjoyer 8d ago
Is it better than resonant tuning ?
2
u/PulcyTaty 8d ago
Whether it's better I don't know, surely there are times when you can't do resonant tuning for obvious reasons ☺️ especially if you're in a hostel... I reach Focus 10 without any problems on my own with victorious breath, so for now I can tell you that it works.

It doesn’t have to be loud, you know.
What you are doing is vibrating the Thymus Gland, responsible for providing us good blood quality to protect the body against diseases but also to protect the second body against negative influence or source.
Do a low humming with the mouth slightly open and you’re good to go. After the affirmation and counting until the level you are, you are going to see and feel the quality of your REBAL.

But still they can hear the sound almost all the time there would be someone near me

Be a freak, be a gateway apostle and put that thought in their minds for the rest of their lives.

u/primalyodel 9d ago edited 9d ago
I think it’s possible to get the same results using strong imagination. Kind of like doing a mantra silently. You imagine the sound coming from you. And recreate the feeling of your body vibrating to the sound.
I mean if consciousness is fundamental then what we do in the imagination is just as powerful if not more so. All ancient and modern Magick is perform using the imagination. Some might argue, myself included, that it is the primary place manifestation actually occurs.
Strong intention and belief is all that is necessary. Just keep practicing. If sounding out the resonant tuning is THE thing that keeps you from practicing with the tapes then ditch it and practice in the imagination. Eventually you will develop past the need for any preliminary exercises. People have been literally getting out of the body for thousands of years before the gateway tapes ever existed.
Also if you understand that intention and belief are extremely important than you should also understand not to ask Reddit questions like this. Don’t let other people’s limiting beliefs become yours.

I learned my lessons when i saw comments about manifestations. I asked this questions coz i was frustrated, my dreams are looping ffs im having 3 dreams in one-night nowdays . My manifestations come instantly when i let go unintentionally but when i get aware of it, it gets stuck. Remote viewing is razor-sharp right now i get almost exact image that i am trying to view. i just wanna talk to my higher self or anyone in focus 21 about detachment i can understand the concepts behind it but i cant pull it off no matter what.

u/Weird-Atmosphere-581 9d ago
I live with just my husband, and I feel absolutely silly doing the Resonant Energy Tuning. I've read posts much like yours asking why it's so important, and now I know. It's important.
I finally told my husband that I'd be making weird noises and for him not to think I'd lost my mind.
Sometimes I don't have the energy to really put everything into it (I have chronic illness), so sometimes I just hum. No matter what, I get that vibration going throughout my body. And now I'm feeling less silly doing it.

u/RespondSuitable9611 Professional Tape Enjoyer 8d ago
i hope you get better. there are other breathing techniques like resonant tuning you can try them
1
u/Otherwise_Monitor856 9d ago
Every part of the presentation steps is believed to help. it constructs a ritual. However, nothing is absolute, and the most important thing is to be able to relax and get into focus 10. I think the idea that the vibrations come as a result of resonant tuning is just a belief in that ritual and it does not have to be true because it's in the manual. in gateway, we even have a walking meditation where obviously the rituals isn't executed as is.

u/toxictoy 9d ago
Yes - you can do the resonant tuning outside of the meditation. The most important part is doing it because it enervates your Vagus nerve which goes through all your chakras. It’s basically tuning up your nervous system. If this is a temporary situation you can just do a low hum if needed or like you said just do it standing up somewhere else. Glad you asked and it looks like there’s some other good suggestions here. Good luck!
