A Spiritual Exercise

HU is an ancient name for God.

When you sing HU, you open your heart to the Light and Sound of God.

Here is a simple spiritual exercise to try.

First, close your eyes and look gently to a point between your eyebrows.
Then, softly sing HU (pronounced like the word "hue").
Now sit quietly for a few minutes. Watch and listen for the presence of God.
It may come as a light or a sound, ...or in some other way.
