Becoming a Higher Expression of Divine Love with the Sound of HU
·OnlineOnline26 attendees from 8 groupsDiscover the Sound of HU to fill yourself with love and connect with Divine Spirit.
Experience the transformative power of the HU chant. Join us for a 12-minute session of chanting this sacred sound to connect with the divine within yourself. Discover the peace, clarity, and spiritual growth that comes from immersing yourself in the uplifting vibrations of the HU. A facilitator-led spiritual conversation will follow the HU song.
“You are a living spiritual exercise.
“Every moment of your life, you must be the HU. This is more than just chanting HU. This is being the HU.
“The Sound must always be in your atoms. It must be with you when you’re driving, when you’re at work, when you’re home eating a meal with your family. The HU and you must be one and the same.
“And if you make yourself more and more one with the HU, you will find that life is a more joyful place.”
—Harold Klemp, The Sound of Soul, p. 62
HU is a sacred mantra—the Sound behind all sounds. An ancient name for God, HU is a carrier of love between God and Soul. It enables you to open your heart to experience the miracles that occur, when you give and receive love.
Monica Shelmandine, the facilitator for this Sound of Soul Event, is looking forward to sharing the HU with you and exploring the heart-opening power of this sacred mantra.
