Interesting but what did it have to do with meditation?

Here is a little except from Scientific American! Reading the whole article is very interesting

In the beginning, all of space rang like a bell.

It was the immediate aftermath of the big bang, and the universe was filled with a torrid plasma—an energetic soup of particles and radiation. Although that plasma was remarkably smooth, it wasn’t completely smooth. There were slight density and pressure gradients that pushed material around, says Lloyd Knox, a cosmologist at the University of California, Davis, “and when stuff gets pushed around, those are sound waves.”

The ringing happened everywhere, so intensely that we can still sense it 13.8 billion years later. It has been detected directly in the cosmic microwave background, the afterglow left over from the big bang’s fading fireball, and it has been closely analyzed via the same basic physics used to study the structure of the sun. In fact, the primordial reverberation is so well measured and modeled that it has been used to deduce the precise rate at which the universe is expanding, a number known as the Hubble constant. That constant, in turn, is the cornerstone of our modern understanding of the size, age and structure of the cosmos.

So what does it have to do with meditating? One sign of making progress in meditation is hearing different sounds and music. The first music that is heard is the sound of the bell! Does that ring a bell? The early signs after the big bang?

Or can you connect it with the Hindu tradition of ringing a bell while entering the temple?

You can read more about it in Maha yoga vigyana. I don’t think it is available in English. That book is a jewel with multiple treasures of what you should experience in meditation. It is a compilation of a dozen odd ancient scriptures all on yoga.

So give up your ego. Stop fooling yourself and others. Pray earnestly for going in the right direction. Give up your foolish concepts of what you imagine meditation is but hi to the different mansions Jesus talked about. Once you go there you will prefer those places to this world! That’s a quote from the book

Please don’t make the grave error in thinking I have any of those things. I only quote books.
