as some of you know uh i don't like to just talk to people i like to actually do some experiential work with them and so will i would invite you to if you wish to chant a little bit with me these two words and we'll just follow them for a minute or two into the silence and feel the breath here and then let the breath go out and feel the whole of columbus and and beyond connected with the sense of breath i'll be chanting just a few notes but feel free to harmonize around it don't even worry if you're singing the right note the main thing is to feel the sound according to the middle eastern tradition traditions feel the sound in the middle of the heart and just let the resonance be felt there that resonance of the breath then takes us into the meditation so sound taking us into you could say a deeper sense of our breathing and a deeper sense of connection the words again we're using allaha and then unity allah is breath breathes a lot we're simply entering the silence feeling our own breathing connected with each other we might feel the words inside to help us focus our feeling on the sense of connection connection through breath and the breath made audible through sound back to the first beginning back to allah
