I use the Didjeridu as a form of meditation that takes me to a quiet place in myself without being conscious of my surroundings. |
| alan cadic from England |
an uplifting and very meditative feeling when I here the didge I wish I had started to learn earlier but I'm excited on things to come. the didge gives me enthusiasm enough to get a few friends to learn so we can jam together. |

we express our thoughts with vocal energy; to me the didj is a tool of vocal expression ... I dont identify with aboriginal culture but I can identify with the primal aspect of vocal expression for trance |

| Douglas Duerring from USA |
Well I am a sound engineer and the Didj quickly became my favorite instrament when a local band had a guy playing one. From that point on I learned all I could about the Didj. It is the one instrament that I feel in my soul when it is played. |
| Dylan Martin from Canada |
I first heard someone playing a didj outside an acoustically PERFECT store doorway. The didj was actually a piece of ABS piping but the sound was PHENOMENAL! So since I couldn't buy a didj without blowing a huge hole in my weekly budget I bought a 3.5 foot piece of ABS piping melted a 35% angle in it and melted a mouthpiece in one side. The first few weeks I couldn't play anything on it... but gradually I started getting better at it. Within a month I could play very well except I can't circular breath. |

Sometimes meditative and relaxing sometimes it gives much drive (percussive) didge-it depends on the style I hear or play. I like very different styles of the Didje-sound. |

I feel warm revolutions around my center on a verticle plane that seem to pulse with lower tones. I want to be whirling myself through an orbit around a greater warmth possibly a fire and just let everything vibrate. Generally the sound lets my spirit leave the ground. |
| John jackson from USA |
I play Native American flutes and enjoy the diji playing with it; one of the guys I play with is a diji player. |
| john james from Canada |
when I heard the didj for the first time I stoped what I was doing and it was like being in a trance I did'nt know what it was until I met this native girl and she had it on a c.d. as soon as she told me it was around my birthday so it made an awsome gift for myself. |

| keith ramsay from Italy |
it sends me into a profoundly relaxed state of mind and makes me forget what troubles have occured during my day |
| Ken Jenkins from USA |
Close encounters with hyperspace. Glints of the Other. Communion with ancestors and recently departed loved ones. A feeling of connectivity with all living things on earth. Time slows and maybe stops. Was I playing for five or twenty-five minutes? After playing I feel more alive and I can see the physical world as if the colors are brighter and there is a sharper resoloution. I would call this a good effect. |

It depends on the way how it is played. When it's played the meditative way then it's relaxing. When it's played the percussive way then it seems to give energy. |
| Khabir Shareef from United States |
I find it soothing/relaxing. It helps me to focus. Presently I play African drums & small percussion. I am going to learn to play didj also. It is natural in all its aspects. |
| Kieran Sutton from Australia |
It is relaxing when feeling stressed |
| Klaus Oldach from Germany |
It depends on the circumstances and the speed it is played. Fast changing sounds are very exciting and nearly force oneself to move. If playing a didgeridoo myself - I am a beginner - it makes me calm maybe because of the deficit of oxygen for my brain while blowing into the instrument. |

Its sound demands immediate attention. It has a misterious drone that awakens our primitive enter being . |

When playing I start to feel the vibration of my own bodys sound. As opposed to song or voice through words.... the didjeridoo is like a chant a synchronization a massive choir. Like a mini tabernacle in which the entire choir is composed of many ancestors in rhythm with biological nature. I would like to learn how to make some animal sounds. I have read that when we sleep in REM sleep our eyes move to the earths vibrations I would imagine the didj to have the same quality. |

Calm |
| Richard Curtis from South Africa |
The sound is incredibly primal. Resonating deep in the gut it stirs sensations which seem to bypass the intellectual or rational reaching beyond the concious mind and - in me at least - invoking a sense of loss though quite what I have lost I could not say. |
