Default Experience God!

For many months I have been posting here and most simply don't understand that you can experience GOD, well perhaps if you try an experiment you can know for sure. In the Video below I am doing something very simple but I will tell you that if you try it you will start to understand. The sound you are hearing is the word HU. Try and meditate upon it and see what happens

One must be open to such things before they work.

Otherwise, it is just silliness.

True, i guess you have to believe in God to begin with. An-jel, Hu means 'He' in arabic as in He, Allah, God. Repeating this while remembering God is said to have a very powerful effect. I am not a sufi myself but i my dad used to meditate alot. It's a good way to feel close to God if you believe in him. But maybe if one was to sincerely meditate in this way, and open ones mind to the possibility, one may find it interesting.

AFAIK, 'Hu' is commonly used by practitioners of Eckankar.

How many watts? Gimme a meter for the effect. I can meditate on topless women and create a "powerful effect"

I don't get it either. I have nothing against meditation and understand how it can lead you into a higher level of consciousness, but that does not necessarily equate to experiencing god.

Og, you are thinking in terms of like Auðhumla and her four rivers of milk from the Norse Myths right?
