hey joe.... even if folk are awakened they also seek like minded folk... it's a not a desert island.. we all are one remember and the warmth and fellowship of like minded human beings is always sought out no matter how enlightened and awakened the soul maybe be...merle Suresh,
I understand that there exists the Yoga of Sounds, which is Laya Yoga. And I think the sounds are the Nadas, or simply Nada. Is this very much developed and popular in India? Or do most people practice a little of using the sounds as a basis of practice? Or not at all? I also wonder if much of the practice of the majority of people is truly Yoga practice of some kind, and not more strictly devotional or ritual religion. Now, the average may vary over the very large country, but I wonder what are your impressions. In America, I would say that the majority of people practice a ritual or devotional religion, mostly through institutions like churches and temples, and very few people have a practice that is anything like a Yoga. I think, too, that churches discourage such practice, because, once people are responsible for their own awakening, they have little need for the institution and the hierarchy of its ministers. Thanks for the discussion of the internal sounds! --Joe > SURESH JAGADEESAN <varamtha@...> wrote: > > Anthony, > > Thanks for your finding. Ringing is not the right word for that sound.
