Absorption in Celestial Music: Shabda Yoga Meditation

[Guest guest]

" The All-pervading Music is going on everywhere,

In the heart of all, the Divine Music flows. " (Sikh Scriptures)

 

Many people derive happiness from listening to the music of this world.

People listen to the radio, buy audiotapes and compact discs, attend

concerts, or create their own music. There are many sensations we may feel

from outer music, such as joy, peace, excitement, or inspiration. But the

Music of the Soul is an experience far beyond any we receive from listening

to outer music. It is an enrapturing experience in which our soul is lifted

into spiritual realms. The bliss that fills the soul from listening to the

inner musical vibration is many times greater than any worldly happiness.

Once we listen to the music within, one wants to go on hearing it

continually. Many who have listened to the Music of the Soul find that the

outer music pales in comparison. They would much rather tune into the

broadcast coming from their own soul than to any radio station in the outer

world.

Dear James,

 

This is very beautiful... yet the music of the outer world *is* the inner

music. There is no separation. The world is my soul, and everything in it

is beautiful and blissful and in harmony.

 

To reach the place where there are no more distinctions between inner and

outer... even to stay there only briefly... that is where *all* the music

is :-)

 

Love,

 

Tim
