Hi Perry:

Reading your statements above makes me think that your experience is 
more of a spiritual nature than mine, because mine lacks the quality 
you described and I never merged into the sound. 

When I first started to meditate with a Buddhist group, over three 
decades ago, there were times I heard a piercing, high pitch ring in 
my ears. I learned, subsequently, (and it seems reasonable to me,) 
that I was hearing my own nerves. But, there was one time, deep in 
meditation, that I heard the sweet melodic sound of a flute.

Later on, for about a year or more, I heard a loud, thunderous, 
noise. It happened every time before I left my body. It was not a 
pleasant sensation, due to its deafening character. I am glad that 
had ceased many years ago. 

In recent years I often hear the sound of silence, it is like the 
sound one hears upon walking into a hollow cave. I am guessing that 
it has to do with moving through the etheric web that is on the top 
of the head center to the outside of the body.

These are my observations that I collected from my practice. I 
never intentionally seek or even think much about these sounds. 
They are just byproducts of different states of consciousness.

Best to you,


barbara
