Alongside the radiance of inner Light, many seekers discover another current: a vibration, a resonance, a sound that does not come from the outer world but rises from deep within. This inner Sound is sometimes called the “audible life stream” — a living presence that flows through consciousness, guiding the soul home.

At first, it may come subtly, like the faint hum of electricity, the distant ringing of a bell or the soft rush of wind in the trees. Some hear tones high and clear, others a low, steady pulse. As the mind grows still, the sound becomes more distinct, as if it had always been there but was hidden beneath the noise of thought.

This Sound is not heard by the ears. It is perceived directly by awareness itself. To listen inwardly is to shift from outer attention to an inner receptivity — not straining, not expecting, simply allowing the current to reveal itself. Just as the Light can appear as colors, sparks or flowing patterns, the Sound unfolds in stages. From the gentle tinkling of bells to the resonance of flutes, from the thunder of a drum to the roar of a waterfall, the soul is drawn ever deeper into its source.

The effect of this listening is profound. The inner Sound has a magnetic quality, pulling the mind away from restlessness and into stillness. It lifts awareness beyond the surface of thought, carrying it upward and inward, toward a state where sound and silence merge. Each tone, each vibration, is like a thread woven into the fabric of being, reminding us that we are part of a vast, eternal harmony.

For many, the Sound comes together with the Light, forming a union of sight and hearing that transcends the senses. To see radiance and hear resonance in the same moment is to experience consciousness as a living stream — luminous, musical, alive. It is not only beautiful; it is liberating. In that union, the soul remembers: I am not separate, I am not lost. I am part of the eternal Song.

Meditating on this inner Sound is not about chasing melody or experience. It is about surrender — letting the current carry us where it will. For in the end, the Sound does not lead outward but inward, to the very heart of awareness, where all tones dissolve into silence and silence itself sings.
