| What is the Surat Shabd Yoga ? The Yoga is designed to enable the soul or that part of our consciousness that's eternal to ascend beyond the physical body into the higher spiritual regions by means of an internal sound or life current, known variously in the scriptures of the world as shabd, nad, logos, audible life stream, holy word, naam, bani or ringing radiance. It is through this union of the soul with the music of the spheres that gives this meditation practice its name: Surat Shabd Yoga. Surat means soul or attention Shabd yoga or sound current Yoga means UNION of the soul with the Divine sound The Masters of the Surat Shabd Yoga over the last century are referred to as Sant, Satguru, Param Sant, and Perfect Living Master. Satguru means "True Light Giver." Param Sant means a "Saint from the Beyond." These terms describe an exceptional spiritual adapt in meditation who is competent to guide the soul through the many subtle planes of existence to the highest spiritual realm named "Anami Lok, which means "Nameless Abode," where all sound, light, consciousness, bliss, and creation have their eternal source. The Shabd is the transcendent power which is believed to be the creative and sustaining force of the universe. It is also known as the "Audible Life Stream", the "Music of the Spheres", or God, all the religions mention it by different names. In the Bible it is called the Word; "In the beginning there was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God." After initiation by a competent Master in meditation our soul will experience this "Audible Life force", as inner-light and inner-sound and tune itself to it, to God: to become one with God's will.

The soul’s journey back to its Creator by withdrawing the scattered attention from the outside world. This can be achieved only by closing the nine apertures of sensual pleasures and concentrating between the eyes and listening to the Sound Current, which continuously reverberates in us from birth to death.
