    1. THE CARPATHIAN VIEW ON HEALING

    The Carpathians are a no$adic people whose geographic origins can be traced back to at least as ar as the 'outhern *ral +ountainsnear the steppes o $odern-day a/akhstan0, on the border between (urope and sia. or this reason, $odern-day linguists call theirlanguage 3proto-*ralic,4 without knowing that this is the language o the Carpathians.0 *nlike $ost no$adic peoples, the wanderingo the Carpathians was not due to the need to ind new gra/ing lands as the seasons and cli$ate shi ted, or the search or better trade.5nstead, the Carpathians6 $ove$ents were driven by a great purpose: to ind a land that would have the right earth, a soil with the kindo richness that would greatly enhance their re7uvenative powers.

    8ver the centuries, they $igrated westward so$e si9 thousand years ago0, until they at last ound their per ect ho$eland their susu in the Carpathian +ountains, whose long arc cradled the lush plains o the kingdo$ o Hungary. The kingdo$ o Hungary

    $. THE GREAT HEALING CHANT O! THE CARPATHIAN

    The $ost well-known and $ost dra$atic o the Carpathian healing chants was 0n Sarna Pus"The Great Healing Chant# . Thischant was reserved or recovering the wounded or unconscious Carpathian6s soul.

    Typically a group o $en would or$ a circle around the sick Carpathian to 3encircle hi$ with our care and co$passion40 and beginthe chant. The sha$an or healer or leader is the pri$e actor in this healing cere$ony. 5t is he who will actually $ake the spiritual

    7ourney into the netherworld, aided by his clanspeople. Their purpose is to ecstatically dance, sing, dru$ and chant, all the whilevisuali/ing through the words o the chant0 the 7ourney itsel every step o it, over and over again to the point where the sha$an,in trance, leaves his body, and $akes that very 7ourney. 5ndeed, the word 3ecstasy4 is ro$ the Latin ex statis , which literally $eans3out o the body.40

    8ne advantage that the Carpathian healer has over $any other sha$ans is his telepathic link to his lost brother. +ost sha$ans $ustwander in the dark o the nether real$s in search o their lost brother. ;ut the Carpathian healer directly 3hears4 in his $ind the voiceo his lost brother calling to hi$, and can thus 3/ero in4 on his soul like a ho$ing beacon. or this reason, Carpathian healing tends tohave a higher success rate than $ost other traditions o this sort.

    'o$ething o the geography o the 3other world4 is use ul or us to e9a$ine, in order to ully understand the words o the "reatCarpathian Healing Chant. re erence is $ade to the 3"reat Tree4 in Carpathian: En Puwe 0. +any ancient traditions, including theCarpathian tradition, understood the worlds the heaven worlds, our world and the nether real$s to be 3hung4 upon a great pole, ora9is, or tree. Here on earth, we are positioned hal way up this tree, on one o its branches. Hence $any ancient te9ts o ten re erred tothe $aterial world as 3$iddle earth4: $idway between heaven and hell. Cli$bing the tree would lead one to the heaven worlds.Bescending the tree to its roots would lead to the nether real$s. The sha$an was necessarily a $aster o $ove$ent up and down the

    "reat Tree, so$eti$es $oving unaided, and so$eti$es assisted by or even $ounted upon the back o 0 an ani$al spirit guide. 5nvarious traditions, this "reat Tree was known variously as the axis mundi the 3a9is o the worlds40, >gddrasil in Dorse $ythology0,+ount +eru the sacred world $ountain o Tibetan tradition0, etc. The Christian cos$os, with its heaven, purgatory earth and hell, isalso worth co$paring. 5t is even given a si$ilar topography in Bante6s Divine Comedy : Bante is led on a 7ourney irst to hell, at thecenter o the earthE then upward to +ount ?urgatory, which sits on the earth6s sur ace directly opposite Aerusale$E then arther upwardirst to (den, the earthly paradise, at the su$$it o +ount ?urgatoryE and then upward at last to heaven.

    5n the sha$anistic tradition, it was understood that the s$all always re lects the largeE the personal always re lects the cos$ic. $ove$ent in the greater di$ensions o the cos$os also coincides with an internal $ove$ent. or e9a$ple, the axis mundi o thecos$os also corresponds to the spinal colu$n o the individual. Aourneys up and down the axis mundi o ten coincided with the$ove$ent o natural and spiritual energies so$eti$es called kundalini or shakti 0 in the spinal colu$n o the sha$an or $ystic.

    %. CARPATHIAN &' ICAL AE THETIC

    5n the sung Carpathian pieces such as the 3Lullaby4 and the 3'ong to Heal the (arth40, you6ll hear ele$ents that are shared by $anyo the $usical traditions in the *ralic geographical region, so$e o which still e9ist ro$ (astern (uropean ;ulgarian, =o$anian,Hungarian, Croatian, etc.0 to =o$any 3gypsy40. 'o$e o these ele$ents include:

    F the rapid alternation between $a7or and $inor $odalities, including a sudden switch called a 3?icardy third40 ro$ $inor to $a7orto end a piece or section as at the end o the 3Lullaby40

    F the use o close tight0 har$onies

    F the use o ritardi slowing down the piece0 and crescendi swelling in volu$e0 or brie periods

    F the use o glissandi slides0 in the singing tradition

    F the use o trills in the singing tradition as in the inal invocation o the 3'ong to Heal the (arth40 si$ilar to Celtic, a singingtradition $ore a$iliar to $any o us

    3Lullaby4 and 3'ong to Heal the (arth4 illustrate two rather di erent or$s o Carpathian $usic a quiet, inti$ate piece and anenergetic ense$ble piece0 but whatever the or$, Carpathian $usic is ull o eeling.

    (. L'LLA)*

    This song is sung by wo$en while the child is still in the wo$b or when the threat o a $iscarriage is apparent. The baby can hear thesong while inside o the $other, and the $other can connect with the child telepathically as well. The lullaby is $eant to reassure thechild, to encourage the baby to hold on, to stay to reassure the child that he or she will be protected by love even ro$ inside until

    birth. The last line literally $eans that the $other6s love will protect her child until the child is born 3rise40.

    +usically, the Carpathian 3Lullaby4 is in three-quarter ti$e 3walt/ ti$e40, as are a signi icant portion o the world6s varioustraditional lullabies perhaps the $ost a$ous o which is 3;rah$s6 Lullaby40. The arrange$ent or solo voice is the original conte9t:a $other singing to her child, unacco$panied. The arrange$ent or chorus and violin ense$ble illustrates how $usical even thesi$plest Carpathian pieces o ten are, and how easily they lend the$selves to conte$porary instru$ental or orchestral arrange$ents. wide range o conte$porary co$posers, including BvorGk and '$etana, have taken advantage o a si$ilar discovery, working

    other traditional (astern (uropean $usic into their sy$phonic poe$s.0

    Like all hu$an languages, the language o the Carpathians contains the richness and nuance that can only co$e ro$ a long history ouse. t best we can only touch on so$e o the $ain eatures o the language in this brie appendi9:1. The history o the Carpathian language

    2. CARPATHIAN GRA&&AR AND OTHER CHARACTERI TIC O! THE LANG'AGE

    I i 6s. s both an ancient language and a language o an earth people, Carpathian is $ore inclined toward use o idio$s constructedro$ concrete, 3earthy4 ter$s, rather than abstractions. or instance, our $odern abstraction 3to cherish4 is e9pressed $ore concretelyin Carpathian as 3to hold in one6s heart4E the 3netherworld4 is, in Carpathian, 3the land o night, og and ghosts4E etc.

    W r r er. The order o words in a sentence is deter$ined not by syntactic roles like sub7ect, verb and ob7ect0 but rather by prag$atic, discourse-driven actors. (9a$ples: !ied vagyok"# 3>ours a$ 5.40E Sivamet andam"# 3+y heart 5 give you.40

    Aggl+tinati n. The Carpathian language is agglutinativeE that is, longer words are constructed ro$ s$aller co$ponents. nagglutinating language uses su i9es or pre i9es whose $eaning is generally unique, and which are concatenated one a ter anotherwithout overlap. 5n Carpathian, words typically consist o a ste$ that is ollowed by one or $ore su i9es. or e9a$ple, s$vam%am#

    pronounce. @owels o ten get inserted between su i9es to prevent too $any consonants ro$ appearing in a row which can $ake theword unpronounceable0.

    N +n 0ases. Like all languages, Carpathian has $any noun casesE the sa$e noun will be 3spelled4 di erently depending on its role inthe sentence. 'o$e o the noun cases include: no$inative when the noun is the sub7ect o the sentence0, accusative when the noun isa direct ob7ect o the verb0, dative indirect ob7ect0, genitive or possessive0, instru$ental, inal, supressive, inessive, elative,ter$inative and delative.
