 Will you try an experiment with me?
 Simply close your eyes
 and allow your ears to hear all sounds around you.
 Don't try to name or identify these sounds.
 Just hear them as you would listen to music.
 As when you hear a flute or a guitar
 without asking what it means.

 And as and when I talk, just hear the sound of my voice. Don't bother about what it means. Your brain will take care of that by itself.
 Just let your eardrums respond as they will to all vibrations now in the air.
 Don't let yourself or your ears be offended by improper or unscheduled sounds.
 If for example the record is scratchy, okay. You wouldn't object if you were listening to it sitting by a fire of crackling logs.
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 Let 'em ring. It's just a noise.
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 And keep your tongue relaxed, floating easily in the lower jaw. Also stop frowning.
 Allow the space between your eyes to feel easy and open.
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 And just let the vibrations in the air play with your ears.
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]

 You must understand that in meditation we are concerned only with what is, with reality, nothing else.
 The past is a memory, the future an expectation.
 Neither past nor future actually exist. There is simply eternal now.
 So don't seek or expect a result from what you're doing. That wouldn't be true meditation.
 There's no hurry. Just now you're not going anywhere. Simply be here.
 Live in the world of sound. Let it play. That's all.
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 [Sound of crackling logs]
 In the world of pure sound, can you actually hear anyone who is listening?
 Can you hear any difference between all these sounds on the one hand and yourself on the other?
