Music of the Universe

Well, if you do the silence thing you get to experience the orchestra of the universe. Some of the most beautiful stuff you’ve ever heard. It’s as if the universe is softly humming directly into your brain. But it’s the humming of atoms spinning, of quarks playing airy violins and superstrings slowly vibrating bass lines. Where unseen galaxies swirl about your head, scattering any possible direction of the music’s origin. Then you hear the beginning of OM: the universe breathing at the lowest threshold of sound and you constantly strain to hear it, but you never do and you smile because you know some day you will.
