The Republic of Altai is a mysterious land saturated with ancient beliefs. Everything here is unusual: magical rituals shamans, unique culture, exotic and authentic music. This republic is also known for its special instruments. Camus musical instrument(also known as a harp) has a very interesting legend about its origin.

The legend of komuz

Old-timers say that this tool has a very unusual story appearance. According to legend, a hunter walking through the forest heard beautiful and outlandish sounds that were unfamiliar to him. Coming closer to the source of the sound, he saw a bear climbing a tree and pulling a piece of wood with its paw.

When a wooden knot was twitched, a strange, but very bewitching melody was formed. The hunter was visited by the thought: and not whether to make a musical instrument capable of making such captivating sounds. This is how the bowed mouth instrument appeared - kamus (komuz).

Most Altaians call the komus a harp (from the Old Slavic word “varga”), which means “mouth”, “lip”, “mouth”.

The real origin of this musical instrument is still a mystery, since there is only one single legend. There are many varieties of vargan. The beauty of this instrument is that you do not need to undergo special training to play the komus, since you need to extract mysterious sounds with your soul. Everyone can plunge into a state of pleasant relaxation, temporarily renounce worldly worries and feel spiritual harmony.

It is due to the natural origin of the jew's harp that Altai people experience peace and extreme calm when playing it. If someone had a great opportunity to visit Altai, then, for sure, there was a rare opportunity to hear the melody played by the komus, since every inhabitant of this region is extremely proud of his folk instrument.

And if someone is just going to visit the homeland of this wonderful people, then, undoubtedly, it is worth hearing the singing of the mysterious harp at least once.

The ability of the jew's harp to heal

Altaians are sure that the harp has healing properties. There is no doubt that this instrument is capable of developing subtle ear for music, creative possibilities beneficial effect on psychological and physical health.

Of course, you should not expect a quick effect, but if you have patience, then the harmony of the body and soul will certainly be restored.

What contributes to the game on the komus

As you know, health directly depends on the ability to relax. And it has long been no secret that health problems are the consequences of regular stress.

Camus affects human destiny

Kamus is a musical instrument that has never been studied by enterprising scientists. Among the Altaians there is a belief that in addition to healing properties, the jew's harp is still able to have a beneficial effect on the fate of a person. This happens when he first picks up an instrument and starts playing.

The difficult reality does not seem so gloomy, the world seems to be painted in bright colors. magic colors making a person believe in miracles. Life attracts more good people, makes the surrounding reality friendly and presents pleasant surprises. Vargan helps to merge with the natural principle, to know oneself better, to reveal one's potential.

After training on the jew's harp, a person experiences peace, slowness. Irritability, fatigue and dissatisfaction with life are removed. There is also no place for anger, which passes without a trace, leaving behind only a balanced and complacent state. A completely different view of the world appears - immaculate, bright and optimistic. All this is possible only in one case - with regular playing on the jew's harp and using it only for its intended purpose.

Although the kamus is a musical instrument very easy to use and external design it is not complicated at all, it is able to change a lot in a person's life. And it's all about the natural sound, bewitching the player and the listener.

The main thing is to feel the instrument, to merge with it. This is not just a means of extracting sound, it is an important attribute of life. For a person who plays the komus, he must become a reliable companion.

In order for the jew's harp to have a beneficial effect on the state of its owner, it must always be near him.

Recently I asked myself: What tool is suitable for a traveler? And today I saw a tool in the store - Komus. The question arose of choosing which one is better and how they are generally chosen, on what basis?

Komus (vargan), however, like a tambourine, since ancient times it was considered magic tool.
A tambourine is a "yang" shaman's instrument. "Yansky" - because it is designed for the audience, for the listener, for collective meditation. Komus affects primarily the one who plays, and in lesser degree on listeners. This is a Yin instrument.

If you are familiar with “energy” practices and know the cartography of altered states of consciousness, then the harp will help you go to the “upper world” for information, to the “lower world” for power and to the “middle worlds” for active actions that transform reality. Anyone can learn this. Moreover, you need to learn once and the skill will remain with you for life, just like the ability to ride a bicycle. From the outside it is difficult, in fact, when you master it, it will be natural and simple, just like breathing and living.

The nature of the energy impact of the jew's harp on a person

When we play the jew's harp, powerful vibrations are born. In the mouth, if we talk about the physics of the phenomenon, a standing sound wave appears. And you can choose the sound of the instrument, which will resonate with the basic rhythms of human vibrations. This is achieved both by the peculiarities of the manufacture of the instrument, and by the peculiarities of playing it. In biology, the so-called alpha, beta, gamma rhythms characteristic of the human brain are known. The sound wave, entering into resonance with these rhythms, causes altered states of consciousness. The world is magically transformed, and we begin to see, feel, feel what we did not notice before. This curious effect is experienced by any person who starts playing the jew's harp. It manifests itself quickly and powerfully.

Every time a komus falls into the hands of a person, it somehow transforms and changes his life. Many people have told me wonderful stories. Komus is great for self-expression, improvisation, for interaction with the outside world, reality… Komus attracts interesting people, fantastic and wonderful situations, events and circumstances.

How to play?

Press the base tightly against the teeth, so that a small gap remains between the teeth, into which the movable tongue of the jew's harp will enter. Everything is extremely simple. Then we pull off the metal tongue. The sound effect is created by creating a resonant circuit in the mouth. The instrument itself does not sound. By changing the volume of this resonant circuit, we achieve different sounds. At further stages of training, the resonant circuit captures the larynx and airways up to the diaphragm. There is a subtle technique of playing the komus, when the musician vibrates with the processes of his own lungs. This cannot be taught - the technique comes as if by itself.

Playing the komus is very similar to singing a mantra. An interesting effect is achieved if a silent inner mantra is superimposed on the sound of the komus. It somehow modulates the harsh vibrations of the jew's harp.
