We do not realize how much we are impacted by sound until we experience the lack of it. There is the obvious impact that comes with silence but the effects of sound on our experience of life are far more than what we hear with our ears. The vibrations which accompany the movement of energy are present throughout the universe. I remember on a retreat in the mountains many years ago it was so still and quiet in a way I had never known. There was such silence at times I could feel my heart beating and vibrating energy throughout my body. I expressed the impact to a friend by saying how loud my body was. I described an inaudible experience as an audible one because both are vibrations and my dominant perception of vibration came through my ears. It makes me wonder how much vibrational energy is present within us and around us of which we are oblivious. How might our hearts provide an opportunity to begin to tune into more vibrations of the universe? We often describe people and places as having good or bad vibes but maybe it is our way of interpreting the vibrations our hearts pick up on that resonate or do not resonate with our own vibrations.
