Why are we not allowed to listen to the sound through our left ears? I accidentally did this at first and it got quite loud.
Who said that you weren't allowed? :?

I read it here...'Concentrating on the inner Sound: The second practice of meditation involves the listening to the inner Sound only from the right ear and above and never from the left side. We focus our attention at the seat of the soul and listen to the inner Sound Current our soul is of the same essence as the Sound Current, and is attracted to the divine Melody. The soul travels on the Sound Current through the inner spiritual regions. During this practice the Names are not repeated. '

I don't listen to people when they say I "can't" do something... it's too limiting, too negative. ;)
Try it for yourself and see what works for *YOU*.
Try it with one ear and then try it with both and see which one works better.
How exactly do you listen to an "inner sound" with your ears anyways?

Oh ok cos I prefer it through my 'left ear' but after reading that article I thought it could potentially be harmful or dangerous.
Anything based on a religion is going to have it's own idiosyncracies. I get the feeling that's what that's about.
