And you will hear a high pitch sound. This is the sound of your own soul. Is this true? I have no clue.

I have a high pitched sound there, and all I do is listen for it and and it's there. If I were a speaker and I said audience listen for the sound they'd all go 'hey yeah I hear a sound!'. LOL

The Inner Sound Current - http://www.spiritualforums.com/vb/showthread.php?t=3703

There's also a good book on the subject by Erik Gustafson called "The Ringing Sound".


I've gained many benefits in spiritual growth by simply listening to the sounds in a meditative way.

Really nice to read, Xan. Thanks for posting it. It would be wonderful to hear the om in my ears. Perhaps it I imagined it, I could bring that forth !! Thanks again.

You're welcome, lili.

In all the years I've been listening to the wide variety of sounds in the inner current, I've only heard the OM once. It's not like we chant, and beyond imagination really. Perhaps with intention you could invite it. As for me I just receive what comes.

Xan, what do these sounds sound like? Are they describable? I get tones from time to time . Is that what you're talking about? Or is it only through meditation that they are heard? I'm really curious. I've started opening up again, a little anyway.

[Xan]

believer... The inner sounds may be heard with or without meditation. This kind of meditating just means focused listening to them.

There are a variety of sounds, the ringing tone being the most common, and may also be bells, flute or other musical instruments, wind or ocean - like putting a conch shell up to your ear, drumming, deep rumbling and so on. One might also hear a wide range of tones from low to high at various times.

The OP wonders about a high pitched tone in the ear.
We may remember when we were young that a high pitched sound could be heard from the TV set. That sound, 15kHz is fairly close to the maximum frequency a human can perceive and thus not too distracting for most people.

If one can remember it, then the tinnitus noise is very similar, constant, high pitched, except without a TV set. As it has no modulation it carries no message other than to announce its presence.

Something like a sound current will have to be considerably different.

Thanks for the info. I will have to pay closer attention to the sounds. At various times I have heard a rumbling, tinkling bells, and the other night, a harp(although I think that was part of a lucid dream.)

If it's quiet and you listen carefully, you'll hear a sound. It's not different, it's just the sound which is there. I bet everyone has a 'sound in their head.

Who cares about the 'inner sound current'?pffft. No one can hear a sound which isn't there. They can only hear the sound which is actually audible.

If ones want to use it as meditation focus it's a good tool for that.

Gosh. people really buy into this woo woo xan's selling ay?

[Xan]

The term "inner sound current" indicates sound that is non-physical in nature. I understand deaf people can hear it, perhaps even better because they are not distracted by outer/physical sounds.

The vast non-physical dimensions we call spiritual may seem "woo woo" and unreal, until one experiences this for him/herself.
