I just noticed another question here on Answers that prompted me to think about one of these gnawing questions that I can't seem to resolve. Between my religious studies class and websites and some of my eccentric friend's books, I keep encountering the phrase "vibrational frequencies" in reference to New Age-type religions. I even have a book about crystals that talks about them.
My question with regard to these "vibrational frequencies" is this: what, precisely, is it that's vibrating? I mean, I have no problem with the good ol' idea of atoms and molecules vibrating as it relates to an object or substance's temperature. But people talk about something having "high" vibrational frequencies or "low" vibrational frequencies, or bringing their vibrational frequencies into alignment, or whatever. I doubt that these people are talking about warming things up or cooling them down.
So WHAT ON EARTH are these supposed vibrations all about? All input is appreciated--thank you!
