The Russian astronomer Butusov made this discovery during his work with mean planet cycle times:

"The frequencies and the frequencies differences of planets' circulations form the frequency spectrum with the interval, equal to t, i.e. the spectrum constructed on the 'golden section'! In other words, the spectrum of gravitational and acoustic disturbances created by the planets represents by itself the consonance chord, the most perfect chord from the acoustic point of view... It seems rather surprising, that Kepler who wrote about the golden section and studied the problem of the Universe harmony cannot discover this regularity! Finishing this paragraph, we can make a conclusion, that the statements of Pythagoreans and Kepler about the 'music of spheres' really correspond to the actual facts, instead of only symbolical."

Others have done work in the atomic field that indicates that electrons too "sing" as they orbit and that baryons in the nucleus also have a distinctive song. Among physicists and chemists there is the well-known Resonance Theory which holds that in a molecule such as benzene, there are what are called canonical forms or Kekulé forms. Some canonical forms are more stable than others. Each canonical form contributes to the overall resonance hybrid. The more stable the canonical forms of the benzene molecule, the more stable is the resonance hybrid which is more stable than any one of the canonical forms. The energy differential between the most stable canonical form and the resonance hybrid is called resonance energy. Generally, the more canonical forms of a molecule there are, the greater the resonance energy. What's difficult to visualize, however, is that the canonical forms are not constantly morphing into one another and that the resonance hybrid is not a combination of canonical forms. It is a resonance, a harmony of canonical forms, if you will.

In fact, there are subatomic particles called resonances that behave like true corpuscles but are merely a traveling vibratory wave.

Resonance and harmony also makes an appearance in psychology such as this statement:

"A Harmonic Resonance theory is presented as an alternative to the conventional paradigm of neurocomputation known as the Neuron Doctrine, whereby the neuron is conceived as a kind of feature detector whose response is determined by its synaptic input through a spatial receptive field, and visual processing is described as a feed-forward progression through hierarchical layers of visual representation. This concept is shown to be inadequate to account for the holistic global aspects of perception identified by Gestalt theory, including such properties as emergence, reification, and invariance in recognition. Harmonic resonance is shown to exhibit these same properties not as specialized circuits to account for those properties individually, but as natural properties of the resonance itself. I propose therefore that harmonic resonance is the long-sought and elusive computational mechanism behind Gestalt theory."

Resonance Theory and Harmonic Resonance unite in the form of quantum resonance. In quantum resonance, consciousness itself is a resonance that exists as field or a matrix – collective consciousness. The self is a quantum resonance, that is, a probability distribution of dual concepts (i.e. light/dark, male/female, particle/wave, individual/collective, etc.). Put another way, it is the principle by which the Tao differentiates into Yin and Yang. The quantum resonance is fractal in nature. It is part of a whole and a whole composed of parts. One physicist describes quantum resonance thusly:

"On the one hand, the self-moment [quantum resonance] exists as a unique individual within a larger collective; on the other hand, the self-moment also exists as the larger collective within which the individual in question exists."

We dance to the beat but we are the dance and the beat.

But what IS the beat? What is the hidden source that times our very hearts to a pumping rhythm of life? The Hindus knew. They depicted it as Shiva Nataraja or the Dance of Shiva. One hand holds a small drum. The other holds a flame that grows from a Golden Spiral. The drum taps the intervals, the flame of life grows via the Golden Spiral—nature's measuring stick. Another points to the heavens and the other towards the underworld demonstrating that all opposites are created by and united within Shiva Nataraja. He dances upon a dwarf demonic subhuman creature representing the world of matter which serves only as a foundation upon which the dance occur. We feel the beat but we do not see the drummer.
