The Sensory Human vibrates the Cosmos.* It is through sound that this cosmic vibration happens. The highest sounds are cosmic frequencies known as mantras or naad yoga. These sounds have a penetrating power.

The meditation below is an experience of the six "unchangeable sounds" -- Har, Hare, Haree, Whahe Guru** They affect the six directions: east, west, north, south, up, and down. In Yogi Bhajan’s words, "The mantra Har, Hare, Haree, Whahe Guru has six sounds. Don’t take it only as a mantra -- these six sounds are unchangeable sounds. What surrounds you is six: The four directions, up and down. Meditate on these six in this way, and they will cover you."

Sit in Easy Pose, i.e., legs crossed, spine straight. Touch the tip of the thumb to the tip of the Jupiter finger (index finger). The other fingers are relaxed. With your hands in this mudra, close your eyes, and move your arms in the following sequence. Chant using the tip of your tongue.

Stretch your arms out to the sides with the palms facing forward. Keep your elbows straight. Chant - Har.

Without bringing your hands near your shoulders, move your hands directly in front of you with your palms down, elbows by your sides, and your forearms pointing straight out in front of your body. Chant - Hare (Haray).

Bring your hands up by your shoulders, palms facing away. Chant - Haree.

Again, stretch your arms out to the sides with the palms facing forward, as in 1. Chant - Wha.

Again, as in 2, bring your hands directly in front of you, elbows by your sides, and your forearms pointing straight out in front of your body, palms down. Chant - He (Hay).

Again, bring your hands up near your shoulders, as in 3. Chant - Guru (Guroo). Continue sequence for 11 minutes.

To finish: Inhale, hold the breath 15-20 seconds, keep your arms in 6 position, and squeeze your rib cage as you stretch your spine upward. Exhale. Repeat this sequence two more times.

"When there comes a moment in your life when nothing works, if all shelter and hope is gone, when enemies overcome you and friends have left, do this meditation. The sound current has an Infinite power. It is the only power that is given to the human to excel. Vaak Siddhi** is the perfection of the sound projection. Guru Nanak explained it: ‘Through the mouth you utter a sound current, to which God listens with love." What you talk is not a sound current. The sound current is that which you crate with the organic matter of your body where you use your pranas. That has a projective power" -- Yogi Bhajan
