I thought it was interesting and had a lot of power behind it but more a novelty than an instrument. Little did I know this was an issue I had taken with style the guy I heard played not the instrument. |

I thought it was a kind of "eternal" music both as a very old tradition and with its circulate breathing that makes the music lasting over and over. I linked its sound to healing shamanism. |

I've always liked anything that's unusual so I was intrigued of course. |

I was very moved by the sound. It made me feel at peace and something powerful deep down is side my body. I wanted to buy one right there but I could not afford it the next year the festival was back in town and on the first day I went down and got me first and only didjeridu. |

The didj is a different way of mind for those who seek it's spiritual healing abbilities.the questions that are asked here on the page are all feelings I had as a child. I have always been into healing and want to try something I yet to experience as the healer with this tool. |
