Default thanks & trips

thanks again to all , I'll keep the info & see what I can do with it when the right moment comes.
Right now, I feel I should fall on Zen & hold the dinohorses of my desires: as soon as you have a desire, you're anxious to fulfill it. When you get it (1CD) you're happy for a moment, but then another desire comes (5CD), & anxiety again... (replay). So at the moment I am going to enjoy the CD that I wanted so badly - & now I have it, with Eywa's blessings!

I actually had some "trips" while listening to it in a sort of meditation
During "You Don't Dream In Cryon", at a certain point, I felt - almost physically! - that I was shooting down thru Pandora atmosphere in some kind of a capsule. Only why was I alone?
"Jake's First Flight" - I was riding a winged creature, but it looked more like a pterosaurus from redpaintednavi thread "Real life Ikrans and Toruks". Also, I had not 1 but 2 tsaheylu braids, both "plugged in" into the ptero's antennas- & it was incredible, as if we had one body, & also shared the same spirit. The creature was... a lot of fun! he loved flying, laughing & pulling pranks in the air - some airshow we did! When we landed close to "my people" we were laughing outright, well, me, laughing, & the "dragon" making loud quaking noises, batting his wings & stomping his feet. He was a real fun The people shook their heads & said: "The pair of you!" But they were happy cos we were definitely made to fly together...

"Call for Union"... I saw "the ancestors". But I already posted this one on "I dreamed about Pandora" thread.

Anybody had special experiences while listening to Avatar soundtracks? I would like to hear them...

Lahea, I wanted to ask you something: you mentioned this 5CD is great for meditation. How do you meditate on it? Do you choose the music that clicks with your mood, or do you go for all the 5? That's 5 hours, iirc! Goody girl if you meditate for 5 hours continuously... I won't be surprised to see you levitating one day! That would be definitely "living your life flying high"

But seriously, what's your particular way? You're welcome to PM me if you feel it's righter than posting...

the thing (one of them) is that this CD is so powerful, but the first half is sweeter, it's more the forest & the Na'vi way - but when it gets to the part of the attack & the war, I end up seriously shaken, not even on the surface, it's much deeper, more like a seaquake... hm... I don't know. So, meditating on that... maybe only on some specific occasions... I think I got PAD again just listening to the music...

Ma Apache_Blanca, it's quite simple; I have a list of songs I liked the most. Then I have divided them into play-lists, depending on the mood. I'm not meditating for 5 hours I'd like to, but I have not enough free time...

Default JC about the Avatar Score

Look what I found in my blessed by Eywa CD: A note about the Avatar score from the director.
"Our goal in making Avatar was to transport you to another world, not just a planet in another star system, but the primeval world that has existed in our dreams since before our history began. To watch Avatar, especially in 3D, is to dream lucidly, with your eyes wide open. The music had to match the images with its own power to transport us to a world of powerful emotions. It had to reach deep into our hearts, to allow us not only to see but to feel. The Na’vi say: “No one can teach you to see”. By which they mean that understanding must come from within. The music is our key to the emotional understanding of this film.
James Horner knew... that the fate of the movie rested on his shoulders, and his ability to take us to the exultant highs and heartbreaking lows of Jake Sully’s epic journey...
When I listen to the score, it brings tears to my eyes as I visualize the gathering of the clans, the mighty armies riding to battle, the charge of the direhorses, then the fall of the heroes, and Jake’s final desperate struggle to save the alien woman he loves and the world he has come to call Home. And despite the awe and majesty in James’ music in these scenes, it is the scenes in which Jake learns to fly that, to me, are the heart of the film. And James’ music for those flight scenes combines with the images to create a magical moment of pure cinema in which the heart and the imagination take flight.
Bravo James and thank you. Your music is the heartbeat and spirit of the world of Avatar”.

Tears in your eyes, Mr. James Cameron? If you add mine (& I cried rivers) and those of the other Avatar fans over Avatar and Pandora, they will be enough to make a salty lake!

(We can do Pandora therapy there running around barefoot in loincloths, climbing trees, hang-gliding, learning to See, to perceive “the network of energy within all things”... It could be good!)

Wow! JC has never said this anywhere else i think.. Indeed, the soundtrack is "our key to the emotional understanding of this film". I can't visualize most of the scenes, as I listened the soundtrack hundred times over after only one viewing. Yet, it's very very powerful.

I listened though the whole thing today while lying in my hammock. Huh! Goosebumps followed by chills followed by goosebumps haha. Especially the parts with someone singing, very beautiful! I think I'd have fallen asleep but the war songs came on and they were too loud. Most effective of all was the healing ceremony. In the middle of it I noticed that my lungs were completely relaxed and I hadn't taken a breath for quite some time. Right after my legs started to feel like dead meat. I couldn't control them for a while. Sleep paralysis I guess.. it was funny

ha! goosebumps! yes, loads...
About the war songs - see, it's precisely my problem. Until Track 7 (?) it's Pandora pure, sweet, magic, mysterious, powerful, & I love it, & I have some beautiful visions while listening to that part of CD... but I always have to listen with one ear "pricked up" in order to switch it off before the "earthquake" of the war songs begins! Of course they are very powerful & make you feel like you are one of the Na'vis right in the middle of the attack, or the battle - but I love Pandora for its beauty & harmony, not for wars!
So I am waiting for my 5CD which I hope to get into my hand very soon - I think I'll jump on a tree when I get it!

which track is Healing Ceremony? do you have the same - 1st Avatar CD, like me, or some other?
Interesting about your lungs feeling relaxed without breathing! and exactly in the middle of the Healing Ceremony... hm, I think this music certainly has the power!
Off to work
till later

Ahh, Healing Ceremony is one of the bonus tracks of the deluxe edition. Spotify has both versions

The bonus tracks are really awesome (could be because I have listened the standard edition liek 300 times over)

Sooo lucky :]

I have all songs in my phone (I downloaded legally!) and I listen them every night when I'm going to sleep. It's nice just close eyes and forget humans world and fly to Pandora...

I've just taken a barefoot stroll in the forest, with the sun already down, & now I am going to listen to the score again...
