H.P.Blavatsky and the astral sounds

The Voice of Silence extract by H.P. Blavatsky


''Before Thou set-st thy foot upon the ladders upper rung, the ladder of the mystic sounds, thou hast to hear of Thy Inner God in seven manners:

The First is like the nightingales sweet voice chanting a song to its mate.

The second comes as a sound of a silver cymbal of the Dhyanis, awakening the twinkling stars.

The next is as the plaint melodious of the ocean-sprite imprisoned in its shell

And this is followed by the chant of the Vina

The fifth like sound of bamboo flute shrills in thine ear

It changes next into a trumpet blast

The last vibrates like the dull rumbling of a thunder-cloud

The seventh swollows all the other sounds. They die, and then are heard no more.

When the six are slain and at the Masters feet are laid, then is the pupil merged into the One, becomes that one and lives therein.''
