At the same time, one should consider the following anecdote about Franklin: In the spring of 1772, Franklin called on Prince Adam Czartoryski, heir apparent to the throne of Poland. His wife had been suffering from 'melancholia':
I was ill, in a state of melancholia, and writing my testament and farewell letters. Wishing to distract me, my husband explained to me who Franklin was and to what he owed his fame… Franklin had a noble face with an expression of engaging kindness. Surprised by my immobility, he took my hands and gazed at me saying: pauvre jeune femme ["poor young lady"]. He then opened an armonica, sat down and played long. The music made a strong impression on me and tears began flowing from my eyes. Then Franklin sat by my side and looking with compassion said, "Madam, you are cured." Indeed in that moment I was cured of my melancholia. Franklin offered to teach me how to play the armonica — I accepted without hesitation, hence he gave me twelve lessons.47
Alas, several years later she seems to have relapsed. 48 )

He did some things like Omoto today does with
water. He was able to transfer what he called
animal magnetism through water that had medical
uses as well.
I met William Zeitler
the other night at the 11:11 Activation at the
Temple of Higher Consciousness in Escondido.
He has created a Glass Armonia,
the instrument invented by Ben Franklin.
William's music on the Armonia was extradinary.
At the end, he improvised some music
to a reading of Job's Prayer.
It was well received by the group
who enjoyed it very much.
I took photos of William and make
a tiny video on my camera of him playing this
instrument.
His music is available on CD from
http://www.glassicalmusic.com
I understand he is on the History Channel
in a program.
Some reseach says that this instrument caused
Melancholy. Some say this is due to lead poisoning.
William said it cured Melancholy.
I want to understand this more.
One of his CD's was of the Music of the Spheres.
He describes it as Calming and Creative.
Songs from Earth--The Relaxation Album
was had the vibration of Sophia.
I want to have more contact with this man
and his music.
I have long been a fan of Ben Franklin.
Mozart and others created music for the
Glass Armonia.
Quote of interest:

"Franz Anton Mezmer, in his theoryy of animal magnetism, late in the 18th century, revived the Renaissance idea of health as a state of harmony between cosmic and personal formces. A skilled musician and friend anf patron of Mozart, Mesmer believed music to be a potent meduium fo the convenance of the magnetic "fluid." he often carried out his treamting to the accompaniment of music playing on the piano or glass harmonics, an insturment made of rotating glass cylingers which produced tones when rugbbed b y wet fingers. The patients receiving magnetic treatments were reported to be highly sensitive to the muwsic's change of key or meter could cause spasms."
