A Secret to Inner Peace: Noise-Canceling Headphones

Have you ever used noise-canceling headphones?

If you’re not familiar, here's how they work:

The headphones have tiny microphones built into them that pick up external sounds, such as traffic. The microphones send these external sounds to an electronic circuit inside the headphones, which analyzes the sound waves and creates a mirror image of them. This mirror image has the same amplitude (volume) but an opposite phase to the external sounds. The headphones have a speaker built into them that produces sound waves that are the opposite of the external sounds. When these mirror-image sound waves are played through the headphones, they effectively cancel out the external sounds, resulting in noise cancellation.

During a recent talk Nayaswami Jyotish used noise-canceling headphones as an illustration of how to find peace of mind in an unstable world. If we want peace, he said, we need to initiate an equal and opposite wave of divine peace that will cancel out the noise and disturbances of this world. 

Perhaps because I found this example so helpful, a few days later another friend told us about a scalar energy healing device that works through phase conjugation. Similar to noise-canceling headphones, scalar energy is created by sending two opposite waves of energy together. The idea is that when these two waves of energy meet, they create an energy field. This energy field is said to have unique properties that can assist the body’s innate healing intelligence.

All of this talk of two opposite waves colliding reminded me of how Krishna describes the practice of Kriya Yoga:

“Offering inhaling breath into the outgoing breath, and offering the outgoing breath into the inhaling breath, the yogi neutralizes both these breaths; he thus releases the life force from the heart and brings it under his control.” The interpretation is: “The yogi arrests decay in the body by an addition of life force, and arrests the mutations of growth in the body by apan (eliminating current). Thus neutralizing decay and growth, by quieting the heart, the yogi learns life control.” –Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramhansa Yogananda

So, we have noise-cancellation headphones and a scalar energy healing tower of light right within our own self! You don’t have to purchase it for you are the owner of your portable paradise. 

Let’s implode the two opposite waves of duality until we find the one united perception of God.

Joy to you!
