Hearing God's Voice (Susurrus Meditation)

This meditation is for listening carefully to the universe,

A higher power,

The deeper reality,

Or the vast mystery many call God.

You can do it wherever you are,

Whenever you want,

With or without listening to me.

You could be in a car,

Walking,

Standing,

Seated,

Lying down,

Indoors or outdoors.

Listen to all the little sounds,

Natural,

Mechanical,

Inside you,

Outside you,

Everything from airplanes to air conditioners,

Your heartbeat,

A dog panting,

A bird singing,

The tone of the room you're in,

The sound of grass growing.

Listen to all the little bits and parts of sound around you,

Singing for you.

And if you could capture all of the sounds at once in their multitude of voices,

In their polyphony and polyrhythm,

You might be able to understand the voice of God.

Keep listening.
