nada-- silence of the boddhisattva

[Guest guest]

Gabriele, that is my experience. And reason I am sharing my diaries,

they are full of these explorations.

 

In the beginning when I heard sounds, before I studied all this sound

and light business, I was meditating on the inner sounds I heard

inside my body. I realized that the chakras were giving off a sound

or that each seemed to have its own sound in particular, or so I

thought. I also did experiments in which I would note which inner

sounds would activate them. I would feel their activity immediately

after registering an inner sound. That is how I got started on all

this in early 70's.

 

It also seemed to be tied to astrological timings that would aspect

my chart. I checked out everything and read everything which did

verify that the stars in fact created inner sound within the bodies.

All illusory of course but an aid and guide as the Masters say.

 

So, in answer to your other post (on SRD) I wrote that it is more

like "The silence of the Boddhisattvas" and it applies here too

regarding the silence of the inner man. Because that is the ultimate

when all sounds are absorbed and no longer heard. Until then we are

noisy within the body and noisy outside the body.

 

As for jyoti that is associated with second plane, or 1000 points of

light and that is NOT God, that was a revelation to me, that this

lower light (and Light in general?) was not the goal either.

 

But I am still wondering about the ultimate form of "God" because if

he is not Sound, then what is Light?
