Gregorian monks' chanting produces prize-winning cheese!

[Richard]

London, June 20 (ANI): The positive effects of chanting on humans are pretty much well-known, but cheese is the latest candidate to reap benefits from the spiritual hymns. 

Playing an album of chanting recorded by Gregorian monks, has made an Austrian school for dairy farmers to produce their prize-winning cheese.

Cheese matures with the help of micro-organisms which I am sure also feel vibes. The music is very simple and I think that is what helps, The Mirror quoted head teacher Erich Kerngast, as saying.

The 'Chant Music of Paradise' has already topped the UK charts and holds the same position for these Austrian cheese-makers, who repeatedly play it to the two-and-a-half tonnes of cheese while it matures in the cellars of the school.

We put in a Dolby Surround hi-fi system worth ?1,600 and have been playing the Gregorian chant over and over again, said Mr Kerngast.

The school has won a (cheese) string of prizes for its Grottenhofer Auslese cheese, ever since it began playing the monks' chants to the long-suffering produce. (ANI)

This is funny.  I like this.

I thought it was interesting too. It just goes to show you how vibrations affects everything.

I agree.  This is why it is very important to strive to be the kind of person that mostly sends out good vibrations.  There is plenty of negativity and fear so it can be difficult to keep a positive spirit but it is our best chance for a good future.icon_ohmcandle

I agree that vibration can affect everything. I'd be a little suspicious of chanting though especially if it's in a language I'm not familiar with.Gregorian  chanting may be in Latin and I  think I had enough of that in school to understand.

BTW.....This "OM" stuff is really a subversion of "Aum" or Ahhh."'Ahhh stimulates higher chakras... Om" stimulates your lower chakras and closes off movement  to the pineal and crown. Darksiders at work.

I like the idea of cheese groovin' on chants.  It makes me laugh.  I wonder if any physiological differences show up between chanted cheese and non-chanted cheese.

Say CHEESE.  icon_biggrin
