NATURE AND HEALTH
magazine
Japetus stands out as
one of Australia's most adventurous synthesiser musicians, and he has
ventured into unfamiliar areas where few others have dared to go. On the
Radiant Self he is exploring new territory. It is at times melodic, but
there are also sequences that are confronting and mechanistic, as he contrasts
the utilitarian world of mankind with the infinite reaches of space, beyond.
The Radiant Self is intended as a musical journey of self-exploration
and makes few concessions to the blandness which characterises much New
Age Music.

 Breathe
your own radiant self...
THE RADIANT SELF
The
Radiant Self is a powerful two part journey that takes you through
into your own inner radiance where you can then experience a
series of realisations. This radiance flows out from the top
of an active inner volcano that sits in the centre of a crater
rim on a magnificent tropical 'is-land'. The
journey carries you through the forests near the sea... up the
outer rim and into a sacred space... you climb the side of the
volcano... to finally dive into the golden 'love-a' bubbling
up from the one source deep within all being. Immersed and floating
in that magical space... the light reveals a giant pentagram
spinning slowly overhead with a coloured sphere on each of its
points.
The
visualisations continues as you explore these spheres which contain the
realisations. From realm to realm you flow... onto the last sphere revealing
the perspective of the whole. Finally, you return with a real feeling
of transcendence having contacted this deeper sense of being and opened
up a pathway for its expression. Now all you need to do is breathe in
your own radiant self..
