Everything is Made of Vedic Sounds

Everything is Made of Vedic Sounds explores how the silent ocean of consciousness, at the most fundamental level of creation, moves within itself, interacting with itself to create an infinitely dynamic structure of pure sound-Vedic sound that eternally hums within the silent ocean of pure consciousness.

This infinitely dynamic structure is referred to in the Vedic tradition as Veda, meaning pure knowledge. It represents the fundamental vibration that manifests as the universe. This book provides a comprehensive discussion on the dynamics of transformation-from the silence of pure consciousness to the sound of Veda, and from sound to sound, culminating in the multitude of Vedic sounds. It includes an in-depth analysis of Maharishi's Apaurusheya Bhashya, the self-referential commentary of the Veda upon itself.

Everything is Made of Vedic Sounds also delves into how Vedic sounds can be applied across various aspects of life to enhance health, expand consciousness, and remove obstacles to human evolution.
