Find a quiet place where you will not be interrupted for the next 10 minutes. Meditations cannot be paused. If you got interrupted, you are invited to → Leave The Meditation Room, and come back later again when you will be fully available. I will still be here, waiting for you ;-)

The myNoise meditation room uses prompts from a pool of different meditation scripts, so your experience will be different between visits.

This function is still in beta. Do not hesitate to contact me - stephane at mynoise dot net - to leave feedback about your experience, and share suggestions for improvements.

A Sound Meditation

Swami Madhuram Puri is a sannyasi, which means he is a renounced monk in the Hindu tradition. He dedicates his life to yoga practise and teaching, and follows the philosophy of by his spiritual master, Vishwaguruji Paramhans Maheshwarananda. Madhuram became a significant figure in the international Yoga in Daily Life community, helping establish ashrams in the UK and later continuing his work in New Zealand, where he is now based. In 2013, he formally embraced monkhood in a traditional ceremony in India, committing his life to service and spirituality. Madhuram is known for his involvement in Nada Yoga, the yoga of sound, using music and sound to aid meditation and spiritual growth.

One day, Madhuram surprised me by sharing two audio tracks. One featured his acoustic guitar, and the other featured the bansuri, a flute from India. As soon as I heard the first notes, I was impressed by how heartfelt and musical Madhuram's performance was. It really connected with me.

To make this performance a complete myNoise soundscape, we needed to add eight additional tracks. It took a while to find the best sounds that would work well with the original tracks without overpowering them.

I read that Madhuram grew up exploring the vast mountains near his hometown in Slovakia, and this connection to nature has deeply influenced his spiritual journey. Therefore, I began by adding nature sounds. The calming sound of water symbolizes purity and renewal. As a natural white noise, it easily draws us into a meditative state and clears the mind. Bird songs uplift the spirit, signaling new beginnings and the presence of life around us. They inspire joy and freedom. These iconic sounds remind us of the beauty and harmony of the natural world.

I then incorporated gongs and bowls, traditionally associated with meditation music. I used larger ones, to produce lower tones, allowing the bansuri flute to maintain center stage. These background instruments can help fill the quiet moments when the guitar and flute are not being played. You can raise the first sliders to hear those.

The soundscape, which was initially called "Coming Home," has been reimagined as "Home Again" to convey a sense of returning. The term "home" can be interpreted in various ways. It may refer to the physical location we come from, or it could symbolize our fundamental values as humans in a world that is changing, not always for the better. Furthermore, "home" might represent a spiritual realm, a place we return to after life. I imagined a cycle of reincarnation, much like in Hindu beliefs. For the missing tracks, I sought sounds that were surreal and beyond our acoustic reality. I decided against using synthesizers, as they wouldn’t fit the soundscape. Instead, I aimed to create otherworldly sounds, which led me to develop the three Ethereal tracks, muted by default. These tracks offer an experience of their own, especially when paired with the natural sounds.

I invite you to immerse yourself in the diverse realms of this soundscape through the available presets. Allow yourself to pause and reflect your home and where you truly belong.

●  I've consistently used this app nearly daily for years. This is easily one of the top 5 best soundscapes on here. Very calming, very versatile.

●  This was the soundscape that made me donate and buy the app. Seriously, thank you for creating this.

●  A thank you is never enough for this contribution. This piece brings much-needed calm within me in a time of chaos and uncertainty all around.

●  I've been listening to this for the last two days. It's so calming - I wish I knew about it this weekend when I had a massive anxiety attack. This will go a long way to soothe for the next one. Thanks, Stephane, as always.

●  I want to go there.

●  I feel so touched and utterly amazed by this soundscape. Indescribable, but if I had to: The borders of my "self" immediately dissolving, opening up to the beauty of existence. Not only outwards but inwards too. Where I would feel resistance, I now feel connection to something delicate and fragile, something pure. A white lily in the midst of a mossy forest... Thank you, truly.

●  Wow. Simply wow.

●  Madhuram truly made something special here. It's like they're sharing some of their peace through the medium of sound. The production quality is astounding as always. I like these sliders with Wind and Rain Storm set to quietly automate beneath this sound. There is no other website I can go to that can help me sleep, focus, or resonate with my emotions like this one. Never change, Stéphane.

●  Done. This is it. This is where I am going to spend the rest of my time on this site. The best work to date! This is awesome. I thank all the persons involved in producing this amazing piece! Peace.

●  This might be my favorite generator on the website. It has a perfect balance of ambiance and natural sounds.

●  I love myNoise. The sound of a peaceful environment, river flow, I can almost sense the clean air! This is amazing.

●  This is an outstanding piece. Bringing the absolutely beautiful music of Madhuram into a new realm of adjustability.
