The Mysteries of Sound & Creation

The night before last I woke up at 3 a.m. I had gone to bed very early so I decided to stay up for a while and listen to some spiritual discourse. I played a short video- maybe Rupert Spira? I don’t even remember what it was because this video came up right after and stole my mind!

If you want to gain a deeper understanding of the mysteries of sacred sound, I suggest you listen to this over and over. I have read some of the writings on sacred sound by Hazrat Inayat Khan and been deeply moved by them, but this transmission, with the beautiful sacred music in the background, is even more captivating and has the power to open the mind to an expanded awareness. It does exactly what the Sufis are masters at, entraining and elevating the consciousness through sound and breath. There is no need to understand the message intellectually- the fullness of the experience is embodied in the music, the sound of the voice and the words of the Master.

The Richness of Life


I am just so happy today. No reason. Just life. Life is good. I am happy. Singing Pharrell's song, interspersed with my own gratitude chant. Loving life, loving music, loving my beautiful boys who just knock me out with their brilliance, their insights and their humour (and are all grown men- they are only boys in my mind;)

What a life, what a world, what a gift our emotional body is! We get to experience gratitude! How amazing is that? We could be born into a bland world- no colours, no smells... Instead every moment is rich with experience and sensations- this tiny little window in the infinite life of the universe and look what we get! Our life force is contained within our breath, and yet there are these moments when life is so full that it takes my breath away.
