Q : When one is thoughtless, one hears a faint sound. This sound is heard regardless of place and time. Where does this sound come from? Listening to the sound in an uninterrupted manner spontaneously brings peace of mind. How one can go along in this direction? What are the other practices complimenting this in a better way? Is it possible to transcend all perceptions including that of the sound by listening to the sound itself?

A : As long as this faint sound is audible to you, pay attention to that and concentrate your mind on it and later on, as you have asked what other practice you can compliment, for that Gunjan Dhayana is the best and Ajapa Jaap. Ajapa Jaap is following your breath and breath is deep. In every inhalation, the sound of “so” and in every exhalation, sound of “hum”, “so-hum”, “so-hum”. Now this is a sound which you will create but this sound will take you to those ramps of your mind where you will have some, great experiences and this experiences should be better known by you, by your experiences and I should not be explaining that. Gunjan and Ajapa jaap would be very good for you.
