Simran sounds

[Guest Simran20]

I hear what sounds like an xylophone, it’s very quiet and constant..... but when I stop saying Waheguru to listen if it is the tv downstairs- it stops. Can this sound be a good small sign? Is it normal to hear only when I am chanting or does it sound like it’s just my ears playing up.

It's a good thing, different people experience different things when doing simran, the  more you do it the more different things you will experience. It's a bit random sometimes!  

Yesterday my right arm start throbbing randomly when I was doing simran, never happened before! 

I'm sure theres a explanation for them.

Recently I been doing a lot of simran and things start creaking in the house! It's a bit scary actually 

I couldn't find anything Sikh related to it but I ended up on some meditation forum and read some stuff there and people were saying they experience things creaking and even noises in the house when they chant/mediate.

Noises like creaking is the sound vibration of your voice hitting the surface of the thing that is creaking its natural way of how sound vibration works.

Ooh ok  it's like creaks, thuds and knocks lol   at the front door and near the tv.   We have a wooden floor so it could be that .... 

Another thing is I hear vibration in my head and it continues even after I stop doing simran. 

It's all vibration really isn't it

That's a really good thing. Continue doing simran as much as possible.

Whenever I get too creeped out I like to put kirtan on.

Our North American friends won't understand this but because we here in the UK live in houses hundreds of years old, each of our houses does have it's own sounds. What happens with simran is that your senses are hightened - you'll see real things that you wouldn't normally see and hear things you wouldn't normally hear because normally your head is jam-packed full of things. As you de-clutter your mind you make more space to absorb things that normally pass you by. That sound you hear is the sound of your house. It's always been there. You just never noticed it before.

It could be Anhad Naad. People hear it as different sounds sometimes. I hear it as a ringing sound. If you feel it’s Anhad Naad, try and relax while doing simran and listen to it. Let the samadhi take you naturally.

Same - as if someone’s walking around on loose floorboards.... But we already know I have a little Casper round mine.

yup!  last night i was doing simran in my bedroom and i heard loud knocking from the door frame!  i was doing simran using earphones and i still heard the knocking! so not sure how loud it actually was. 

I'v been doing simran a lot more intensely recently and with proper concentration and different stuff is happening, emotions are feeling off as well. 

i asked someone and they said there is no normal when it comes to simran, everyone has different experiences.

Was it someone in your house? Whenever I hear any noises I know it's my younger brother.

Why do you wear head phones?  I think its better without as then you get to hear your own voice more...

I used to hear some sounds like 10 years back when I was simply doing path..Sukhmani sahib or Japji Sahib...

It was a new house actually and the area was not that developed in the neighborhood..I used to hear sounds downstairs as if someone is opening and closing our kitchen drawers.. it was scary and then I used to think maybe it is our neighbor's house but it was pretty clear it was coming from downstairs..

I asked my mom but she said she had no clue wht I am talking about.. It happened many times..

Few months later..we sold that house coz we were moving to other province but I still remember that sound was scary and I never thought it has to do anything with my spiritual journey..

I never heard that sound after.. but one thing is for sure that time I was not so much into understanding things behind everything we do.. I was simply doing it because I used to feel good after doing paath..

Now I am always waiting for something to feel..to hear..I try not to but it happens automatically that I am trying to see some magic.. but I don't feel or hear things at this point..
