Yes Marcus, listening AND hearing.
"All things are but a single energy form at different vibrational rhythms. Matter, light, thought and sound are made of this. Is it not that when one is in the right frame of mind, that certain sounds can lift the soul ?? " All things being that single energy - seeing that 'mind' and 'soul' are also inclusive in that is that attunement or alignment of resonance which is like waves dissolving into eternity. Ripples fading off onto the shoreless shore. Yes, experienced and invoked both being possible. It's when we think in terms of inside and an outside, that is suffering itself. I know, some-antics again. To say that devotional bhava is only personal perceptions and and one's concepts about them only indicates a lack of both experience and invocation of such upliftment. Agreed, from one perspective it is only the person being uplifted, but from another, it is ONLY the Self that is both doing the uplifting and being uplifted.
