When you said "You are right, I had not thought about that aspect of mantra's yet. Since I usually say the mantra in my head, resonance seems quite useless, but it can be very benificiary to have sound resonate through your body by means of voice... Kind of a prehistoric LifeFlow in a way."
what I was actually meaning was that, even when the mantra is thought silently, it imbues our entire mind/body system with its vibration. I believe that's how sending healing or peace works... through the power of thought, further energized by feeling. When you think about it, it affects everything!
Wishing you a splendid day Edwin, with success in all your endeavours,

BTW, I think you really are quite a 'bright light' - very positive - and I think everyone in this forum appreciates that!

Usually words travel between people accompanied by heart, and people can read between the lines. Sometimes on one or both sides the doors of the heart can be closed a little, making the words come across, with less heart.

I am glad that there is nothing standing in between us, you are right, communication is delicate.
Since I don't have much experience with mantra's, I have not (yet) experienced this vibration through silently reciting them in my head. Can you give me an example of one of those mantra's ? It sounds interesting !
Oh and thanks for your kind words, I think they apply just as well on you
