APPENDIX 1 Carpathian Healing Chants To rightly understand Carpathian healing chants, background is required in several areas: 1.

The Carpathian view on healing 2. The Lesser Healing Chant o the Carpathians !. The "reat Healing Chant o the Carpathians #. Carpathian $usical aesthetics %. Lullaby &. 'ong to Heal the (arth ). Carpathian chanting technique 1. THE CARPATHIAN VIEW ON HEALING The Carpathians are a no$adic people whose geographic origins can be traced back to at least as ar as the 'outhern *ral +ountains ,near the steppes o $odern-day .a/akhstan0, on the border between (urope and 1sia. ,2or this reason, $odern-day linguists call their language 3proto-*ralic,4 without knowing that this is the language o the Carpathians.0 *nlike $ost no$adic peoples, the wandering o 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 kind o 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 lourished or over a $illenniu$:$aking Hungarian the do$inant language o the Carpathian ;asin:until the kingdo$6s lands were split a$ong several countries a ter <orld <ar 5: 1ustria, C/echoslovakia, =o$ania, >ugoslavia and $odern Hungary.0 8ther peoples ro$ the 'outhern *rals ,who shared the Carpathian language, but were not Carpathians0 $igrated in di erent directions. 'o$e ended up in 2inland, which accounts or why the $odern Hungarian and 2innish languages are a$ong the conte$porary descendents o the ancient Carpathian language. (ven though they are tied orever to their chosen Carpathian ho$eland, the wandering o the Carpathians continues as they search the world or the answers that will enable the$ to bear and raise their o spring without di iculty.

;ecause o their geographic origins, the Carpathian views on healing share $uch with the larger (urasian sha$anistic tradition.

?robably the closest $odern representative o that tradition is based in Tuva ,and is re erred to as 3Tuvinian 'ha$anis$40:see the $ap on the previous page. The (urasian sha$anistic tradition: ro$ the Carpathians to the 'iberian sha$ans:held that illness originated in the hu$an soul, and only later $ani ested as various physical conditions. There ore, sha$anistic healing, while not neglecting the body, ocused on the soul and its healing. The $ost pro ound illnesses were understood to be caused by 3soul departure,4 where all or so$e part o the sick person6s soul has wandered away ro$ the body ,into the nether real$s0, or has been captured or possessed by an evil spirit, or both. The Carpathians belong to this greater (urasian sha$anistic tradition and share its viewpoints. <hile the Carpathians the$selves did not succu$b to illness, Carpathian healers understood that the $ost pro ound wounds were also acco$panied by a si$ilar 3soul departure.4 *pon reaching the diagnosis o 3soul departure,4 the healer-sha$an is then required to $ake a spiritual 7ourney into the nether worlds to recover the soul. The sha$an $ay have to overco$e tre$endous challenges along the way, particularly: ighting the de$on or va$pire who has possessed his riend6s soul. 3'oul departure4 doesn6t require a person to be unconscious ,although that certainly can be the case as well0. 5t was understood that a person could still appear to be conscious, even talk and interact with others, and yet be $issing a part o their soul. The e9perienced healer or sha$an would instantly see the proble$ nonetheless, in subtle signs that others $ight $iss: the person6s attention wandering every now and then, a lessening in their enthusias$ about li e, chronic depression, a di$inish$ent in the brightness o their 3aura,4 and the like.

2. THE LE

ER HEALING CHANT O! THE CARPATHIAN

Kep Sarna Pus"The Lesser Healing Chant# is used or wounds that are $erely physical in nature. The Carpathian healer leaves his body and enters the wounded Carpathian6s body to heal great $ortal wounds ro$ the inside out using pure energy. He proclai$s, 35 o er reely $y li e or your li e,4 as he gives his blood to the in7ured Carpathian. ;ecause the Carpathians are o the earth and bound to the soil, they are healed by the soil o their ho$eland. Their saliva is also o ten used or its re7uvenative powers. 5t is also very co$$on or the Carpathian chants ,both the Lesser and the "reat0 to be acco$panied by the use o healing herbs, aro$as ro$ Carpathian candles and crystals. The crystals ,when co$bined with the Carpathians6 e$pathic, psychic connection to the entire universe0 are used to gather positive energy ro$ their surroundings, which then is used to accelerate the healing. Caves are so$eti$es used as the setting or the healing. The Lesser Healing Chant was used by @ikirno @on 'hrieder and Colby Aansen to heal =a ael Be La Cru/, whose heart had been ripped out by a va$pire as described in Dark Secret. Kep Sarna Pus"The Lesser Healing Chant# The same chant is used for all physical wounds. Svadaba [into your heart would be chan!ed to refer to whatever part of the body is wounded.

$. 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#. This chant 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$passion40 and begin the chant. The sha$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 while visuali/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 $eans 3out 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 $ust wander in the dark o the nether real$s in search o their lost brother. ;ut the Carpathian healer directly 3hears4 in his $ind the voice o his lost brother calling to hi$, and can thus 3/ero in4 on his soul like a ho$ing beacon. 2or this reason, Carpathian healing tends to have 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 "reat Carpathian Healing Chant. 1 re erence is $ade to the 3"reat Tree4 ,in Carpathian: En Puwe0. +any ancient traditions, including the Carpathian tradition, understood the worlds:the heaven worlds, our world and the nether real$s:to be 3hung4 upon a great pole, or a9is, 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 to the $aterial world as 3$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. 5n various 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, purgatoryCearth and hell, is also 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 the center o the earthE then upward to +ount ?urgatory, which sits on the earth6s sur ace directly opposite Aerusale$E then arther upward irst 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. 1 $ove$ent in the greater di$ensions o the cos$os also coincides with an internal $ove$ent. 2or e9a$ple, the axis mundi o the cos$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 shakti0 in the spinal colu$n o the sha$an or $ystic. 0n Sarna Pus"The Great Healing Chant# 1n this chant$ e& 2brother3 would be replaced by sister$ father$ mother$ dependin! on the person to be healed. *t e&m aina+ana& hany$ +ama. +y brother6s body is a lu$p o earth, close to death. 4e$ ot e&m &unta+ana&$ pirda& e&m$ !ond %s ir!alom t're. <e, the clan o $y brother, encircle hi$ with our care and co$passion. * pus w&en&e&$ ot oma 5arnan&$ %s ot pus f'n&$ (lna& e&m aina+ana&$ pitna& e&m aina+ana& elv.

%. 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 $any o 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 $a7or to end a piece or section ,as at the end o the 3Lullaby40 F the use o close ,tight0 har$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 singing tradition $ore a$iliar to $any o us F the use o parallel i ths ,as in the inal invocation o the 3'ong to Heal the (arth40 F controlled use o dissonance F 3call and response4 chanting ,typical o $any o the world6s chanting traditions0 F e9tending the length o a $usical line ,by adding a couple o bars0 to heighten dra$atic e ect F and $any $ore

3Lullaby4 and 3'ong to Heal the (arth4 illustrate two rather di erent or$s o Carpathian $usic ,a quiet, inti$ate piece and an energetic 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 the song while inside o the $other, and the $other can connect with the child telepathically as well. The lullaby is $eant to reassure the child, to encourage the baby to hold on, to stay:to reassure the child that he or she will be protected by love even ro$ 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 various traditional 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 $usical even the si$plest Carpathian pieces o ten are, and how easily they lend the$selves to conte$porary instru$ental or orchestral arrange$ents. ,1 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 *damDSarna Konda&"L+lla,-# Tumtes# o w&e &u pitas# bels.. 2eel the strength you hold inside. @is#as# svadet.

To hear this song, visit: http:CCwww.christine eehan.co$C$e$bersC. .. ONG TO HEAL THE EARTH This is the earth-healing song that is used by the Carpathian wo$en to heal soil illed with various to9ins. The wo$en take a position on our sides and call to the universe to draw on the healing energy with love and respect. The soil o the earth is their resting place, the place where they re7uvenate, and they $ust $ake it sa e not only or the$selves but or their unborn children as well as their $en and living children. This is a beauti ul ritual per or$ed by the wo$en together, raising their voices in har$ony and calling on the earth6s $inerals and healing properties to co$e orth and help the$ save their children. They literally dance and sing to heal the earth in a cere$ony as old as their species. The dance and notes o the song are ad7usted according to the to9ins elt through the healer6s bare eet. The eet are placed in a certain pattern and the hands grace ully weave a healing spell while the dance is per or$ed. They $ust be especially care ul when the soil is prepared or babies. This is a cere$ony o love and healing.

+usically, the ritual is divided into several sections: F !irst /erse: 1 3call and response4 section, where the chant leader sings the 3call4 solo, and then so$e or all o the wo$en sing the 3response4 in the close har$ony style typical o the Carpathian $usical tradition. The repeated response: Ai Em Mae:is an invocation o the source o power or the healing ritual: 38h, +other Dature.4 F !irst 0h1r+s: This section is illed with clapping, dancing, ancient horns and other $eans used to invoke and heighten the energies upon which the ritual is drawing. F e01n2 /erse F e01n2 0h1r+s F Cl1sing in/10ati1n3 5n this closing part, two song leaders, in close har$ony, take all the energy gathered by the earlier portions o the songCritual and ocus it entirely on the healing purpose. <hat you will be listening to are brie tastes o what would typically be a signi icantly longer ritual, in which the verse and chorus parts are developed and repeated $any ti$es, to be closed by a single rendition o the inal invocation.

CARPATHIAN CHANTING TECHNI5'E 1s with their healing techniques, the actual 3chanting technique4 o the Carpathians has $uch in co$$on with the other sha$anistic traditions o the Central 1sian steppes. The pri$ary $ode o chanting was throat chanting using overtones. +odern e9a$ples o this $anner o singing can still be ound in the +ongolian, Tuvan and Tibetan traditions. >ou can ind an audio e9a$ple o the "yuto Tibetan ;uddhist $onks engaged in throat chanting at: http:CCwww.christine eehan.co$CcarpathianHchantingC. 1s with Tuva, note on the $ap the geographical pro9i$ity o Tibet to .a/akhstan and the 'outhern *rals. The beginning part o the Tibetan chant e$phasi/es synchroni/ing all the voices around a single tone, ai$ed at healing a particular 3chakra4 o the body. This is airly typical o the "yuto throat-chanting tradition, but it is not a signi icant part o the Carpathian tradition. Donetheless, it serves as an interesting contrast. The part o the "yuto chanting e9a$ple that is $ost si$ilar to the Carpathian style o chanting is the $idsection, where the $en are chanting the words together with great orce. The purpose here is not to generate a 3healing tone4 that will a ect a particular 3chakra,4 but rather to generate as $uch power as possible or initiating the 3out o body4 travel, and or ighting the de$onic orces that the healerCtraveler $ust ace and overco$e. The songs o the Carpathian wo$en ,illustrated by their 3Lullaby4 and their 3'ong to Heal the (arth40 are part o the sa$e ancient $usical and healing tradition as the Lesser and "reat Healing Chants o the warrior $ales. >ou can hear so$e o the sa$e instru$ents in both the $ale warriors6 healing chants and the wo$en6s 3'ong to Heal the (arth.4 1lso, they share the co$$on purpose o generating and directing power. However, the wo$en6s songs are distinctively e$inine in character. 8ne i$$ediately noticeable di erence is that, while the $en speak their words in the $anner o a chant, the wo$en sing songs with $elodies and har$onies, so tening the overall per or$ance. 1 e$inine, nurturing quality is especially evident in the 3Lullaby.4

APPENDIX 2 The Carpathian Lang+age Like all hu$an languages, the language o the Carpathians contains the richness and nuance that can only co$e ro$ a long history o use. 1t 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 characteristics o the language !. (9a$ples o the Carpathian language ,including the =itual <ords and the <arrior6s Chant0 #. 1 $uch-abridged Carpathian dictionary

1. THE HI TOR* O! THE CARPATHIAN LANG'AGE The Carpathian language o today is essentially identical to the Carpathian language o thousands o years ago. 1 3dead4 language like the Latin o two thousand years ago has evolved into a signi icantly di erent $odern language ,5talian0 because o countless generations o speakers and great historical luctuations. 5n contrast, $any o the speakers o Carpathian ro$ thousands o years ago are still alive. Their presence: coupled with the deliberate isolation o the Carpathians ro$ the other $a7or orces o change in the world:has acted ,and continues to act0 as a stabili/ing orce that has preserved the integrity o the language over the centuries. Carpathian culture has also acted as a stabili/ing orce. 2or instance, the =itual <ords, the various healing chants ,see 1ppendi9 10, and other cultural arti acts have been passed down through the centuries with great idelity. 8ne s$all e9ception should be noted: the splintering o the Carpathians into separate geographic regions has led to so$e $inor dialecti/ation. However the telepathic link a$ong all Carpathians ,as well as each Carpathian6s regular return to his or her ho$eland0 has ensured that the di erences a$ong dialects are relatively super icial ,e.g., s$all nu$bers o new words, $inor di erences in pronunciation, etc.0, since the deeper, internal language o $ind- or$s has re$ained the sa$e because o continuous use across space and ti$e. The Carpathian language was ,and still is0 the proto-language or the *ralic ,or 2inno-*grian0 a$ily o languages. Today, the *ralic languages are spoken in northern, eastern and central (urope and in 'iberia. +ore than twenty-three $illion people in the world speak languages that can trace their ancestry to Carpathian. +agyar or Hungarian ,about ourteen $illion speakers0, 2innish ,about ive $illion speakers0 and (stonian ,about one $illion speakers0 are the three $a7or conte$porary descendents o this proto-language. The only actor that unites the $ore than twenty languages in the *ralic a$ily is that their ancestry can be traced back to a co$$on protolanguage:Carpathian:that split ,starting so$e si9 thousand years ago0 into the various languages in the *ralic a$ily. 5n the sa$e way, (uropean languages such as (nglish and 2rench belong to the better-known 5ndo-(uropean a$ily and also evolved ro$ a co$$on proto-language ancestor ,a di erent one ro$ Carpathian0. The ollowing table provides a sense or so$e o the si$ilarities in the language a$ily. N1te3 The 2innicCCarpathian 3k4 shows up o ten as Hungarian 3h.4 'i$ilarly, the 2innicCCarpathian 3p4 o ten corresponds to the Hungarian 3 .4

2. CARPATHIAN GRA&&AR AND OTHER CHARACTERI TIC O! THE LANG'AGE I2i16s. 1s both an ancient language and a language o an earth people, Carpathian is $ore inclined toward use o idio$s constructed ro$ concrete, 3earthy4 ter$s, rather than abstractions. 2or instance, our $odern abstraction 3to cherish4 is e9pressed $ore concretely in Carpathian as 3to hold in one6s heart4E the 3netherworld4 is, in Carpathian, 3the land o night, og and ghosts4E etc. W1r2 1r2er. The order o words in a sentence is deter$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+tinati1n. The Carpathian language is agglutinativeE that is, longer words are constructed ro$ s$aller co$ponents. 1n agglutinating language uses su i9es or pre i9es whose $eaning is generally unique, and which are concatenated one a ter another without overlap. 5n Carpathian, words typically consist o a ste$ that is ollowed by one or $ore su i9es. 2or e9a$ple, s$vam%am#

derives ro$ the ste$ s$v# ,3heart40 ollowed by am# ,3$y,4 $aking it 3$y heart40, ollowed by %am# ,3in,4 $aking it 3in $y heart40. 1s you $ight i$agine, agglutination in Carpathian can so$eti$es produce very long words, or words that are very di icult to pronounce. @owels o ten get inserted between su i9es to prevent too $any consonants ro$ appearing in a row ,which can $ake the word unpronounceable0. N1+n 0ases. Like all languages, Carpathian has $any noun casesE the sa$e noun will be 3spelled4 di erently depending on its role in the sentence. 'o$e o the noun cases include: no$inative ,when the noun is the sub7ect o the sentence0, accusative ,when the noun is a direct ob7ect o the verb0, dative ,indirect ob7ect0, genitive ,or possessive0, instru$ental, inal, supressive, inessive, elative, ter$inative and delative. <e will use the possessive ,or genitive0 case as an e9a$ple, to illustrate how all noun cases in Carpathian involve adding standard su i9es to the noun ste$s. Thus e9pressing possession in Carpathian:3$y li e$ate,4 3your li e$ate,4 3his li e$ate,4 3her li e$ate,4 etc.:involves adding a particular su i9 ,such as 3-am40 to the noun ste$ , &l'ertiil#0, to produce the possessive , &l'ertiilam#:3$y li e$ate40. <hich su i9 to use depends upon which person ,3$y,4 3your,4 3his,4 etc.0 and whether the noun ends in a consonant or a vowel. The table below shows the su i9es or singular nouns only ,not plural0, and also shows the si$ilarity to the su i9es used in conte$porary Hungarian. ,Hungarian is actually a little $ore co$ple9, in that it also requires 3vowel rhy$ing4: which su i9 to use also depends on the last vowel in the nounE hence the $ultiple choices in the cells below, where Carpathian only has a single choice.0 N1te3 1s $entioned earlier, vowels o ten get inserted between the word and its su i9 so as to prevent too $any consonants ro$ appearing in a row ,which would produce unpronounceable words0. 2or e9a$ple, in the table on the previous page, all nouns that end in a consonant are ollowed by su i9es beginning with 3a.4

Ver, 01n7+gati1n. Like its $odern descendents ,such as 2innish and Hungarian0, Carpathian has $any verb tenses, ar too $any to describe here. <e will 7ust ocus on the con7ugation o the present tense. 1gain, we will place conte$porary Hungarian side by side with the Carpathian, because o the $arked si$ilarity o the two. 1s with the possessive case or nouns, the con7ugation o verbs is done by adding a su i9 onto the verb ste$:
