(Lots of trumpet references w/ angels all over), Ps 89:15 is cool bcause it speaks of his sounds and also the light of his countenance - you know the face of God that Jacob saw and still survived and called the place Penuel -ie, pinial gland - Gen 32:30...

Too many to list!!!!
ah yes the trumpet, i wrote a song about that once upon a time...

A must see, related to sound, is the movie 'August Rush'
Great movie!

Gem: Yes well, I was going to say that when a loud noise persists in the ear to the degree that a noisy street is preferable to a quiet park then there probably is something weird going on in the inner ear.


Thanks, Gem. I'm glad to know this sign that it's probably tinnitus.

Orbie... Not having experienced tinnitus but only the chattering mind I appreciate the difficulty and discomfort it gives you.

All I can to you is, the inner quiet is non-physical. This means it's here now even while the noisy world outside and inside your body goes on.

One approach is to breathe in your belly for a while and notice that your thoughts slow down. Then notice the subtle open empty space that is within and all around you, beyond the body-mind. Even with noise in your ear you can be aware in the stillness.

Hi Xan, thanks for the reply. That's exactly what I do as well! As usual I dont see what is infront of me I find meditation using the belly breating is a great cool down, slows everything down.

I find it hard to describe the tinnitus sometimes and as noise exacerbates it, a quieter sometime proves hard for me as it goes against my inner party girl!!

Thanks again for the support

Xan dear,
I thought you would like to subscribe to this daily inspiration - here's an example.

Inspirational QuotesFrom www.thevoiceforlove.com

"When you quiet your mind,
you create an invitation to God to join with you."

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru
