Becoming a Higher Expression of Divine Love with the Sound of HU
·OnlineOnline19 attendees from 8 groupsDiscover the Sound of HU to fill yourself with love and connect with Divine Spirit
Experience the transformative power of the HU chant. Join us for a 12-minute session of chanting this sacred sound to connect with the divine within yourself. Discover the peace, clarity, and spiritual growth that comes from immersing yourself in the uplifting vibrations of the HU. A facilitator-led spiritual conversation will follow the HU song.
“The Sound of God is contained in the word HU, a secret or sacred name for the SUGMAD.
”This word can be used quietly at work, at home, or anytime you face a crisis. After you have done everything you can do, you sing this word quietly, and then stand back and let Spirit take charge.”
—Harold Klemp, The Sound of Soul, p. 68
HU is a sacred mantra—the sound behind all sounds. An ancient name for God, HU is a carrier of love between God and Soul. Singing HU can bring healing for body, mind, and spirit. It enables you to open your heart to experience the miracles that occur when you give and receive love.
Monica Shelmandine, the facilitator for this Sound of Soul Event, is looking forward to sharing the HU with you and exploring the heart-opening power of this sacred mantra.
