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. 

Eckankar Books

   Many books about the teachings of Eckankar are available in bookstores and from on-line booksellers. 
           Books may also be purchased directly from Eckankar. To order from Eckankar or request a complete
