Resonating in sweet vortices, Long rhythmic vowels and hums, Ah . . . and . . . eee . . . ommmm . . . hummmm . . . Resounding on and on. Find the harmonies Emanating from the circulation of life energies. Listen to these as sounds, Then more subtly, as an underlying hum. Eventually as most subtle feeling. Then diving more deeply, Dissolve into freedom. "
