There comes a moment in the meditation on Light and Sound when effort falls away. Until then, you may have been focusing, adjusting, bringing your attention back to the third eye, to the inner sound. But suddenly, something shifts. It’s as if a gentle hand lifts you and all you need to do is move with it. This is the stage of surrender.

Surrender is not the same as passivity. It is an active choice to trust something greater than your thoughts, greater than your willpower. The Light is no longer sought — it simply appears, often brighter and more alive than ever before. The Sound no longer feels distant or subtle, but immersive and enveloping, like a river surrounding you completely.

Sometimes it feels as though you are being carried inward by that current, beyond your usual boundaries. There may be a sense of weightlessness, as if the body is no longer the center of your experience. Colors grow more vivid, geometries more fluid and the tones merge into a perfect harmony rather than separate notes.

In this surrender, the idea of “I am meditating” dissolves, leaving only the experience itself. Time can vanish, along with the distinction between yourself and what you perceive. All becomes a single field of light, sound and silence at once. This is not an escape, but a homecoming — into a reality that has always been here, only revealed when resistance has fallen away.

What’s remarkable is that this state can arise not only in meditation. Sometimes it happens in the middle of the day, in a moment of deep peace or wonder. You feel the Light and Sound as a subtle reminder: this is who you are, this is where you come from and this is where you can always return.
