This recording has no words - only music and the vocal sounds of seiki transmission. But Substack automatically generates a transcript regardless - which I did not disable when posting. I'm glad I didn't, because at 2:44 the transcript curiously reads: "1 tsp of salt." Osumi Sensei often used salt for ritual purification (a common Shinto practice). She also was known to give her patients various prescriptions that were unique to each situation. We'll accept this curious transcription as a prescription from the late Osumi Sensei, sent from the other side. Enjoy this rare field recording of life force transmission from one of the most revered healers of the 20th century in Japan.

Couldn't resist taking this one step further by syncing Brad's audio with the original video footage. https://vimeo.com/933774988?share=copy

attempt #2 to receive transmissions.

method: While laying in bed I extended my right arm as a hypothetical antenna and shook it to the percussion and danced to the piano.

result: a shiver, one shake and one big tear from my right eye.

the control: My dog looked understandably disturbed initially then subsequently relaxed. No apparent sneezes or dog tears. -SRS
