given that I am composed of billions of cells
and survive because of symbiosis with other organisms (e.g. gut flora),
bioelectric & hormonal structures seem inadequate to maintain autopoiesis
(sustenance of my integrated individuality)

sound, on the other hand, generated in such a way as to produce vibration throughout the body,
is an effective way of quickly communicating with my whole entity,
coordinating my system by tuning its components to a single message.

I've heard of Tibetan Buddhist monks levitating things with chants and sound.

have been Tibetan throat singing in the shower for many years
man, some of the complex tones are psychedelic
and, occasionally, someone with young hearing wonders what it is

and, I swear
(shouldn't swear, I know)
it's effect on my body is like tuning it, like cohe(a)ring it,
not in some mystical, hippie way
but in an ultrasound, reality way

the creation of the vibration at the underside of the brain
by curling the tongue against the palate and keeping a steady air pressure,
seems to focus a part of the brain that triggers bigself awareness.
