Primordial Sound Meditation

The Primordial Sound Meditation (PSM) technique originates from the ancient Vedic tradition of India. Deepak Chopra, M.D. and David Simon, M.D. revived this authentic process and made it available in a format that can be easily learned and practiced by everyone.

Primordial sounds are the basic, most essential sounds of nature. The specific Primordial Sounds that are used in meditation are mantras. These mantras are personal for each participant. They are chosen on the basis of Vedic mathematics that determines a specific sound or vibration of the Universe at the time and place of our birth. When we silently repeat Primordial Sounds as part of the mantra, they help to take our awareness away from the frenzy of daily activity of the mind to the stillness of spirit. The effect soothes our entire physiology - mind, body and soul. We slip into a state Chopra has described as ‘restful awareness’. Your mantra is your own and is repeated silently.

“When you silently repeat your mantra in meditation, it creates a vibration that helps you slip into the space between your thoughts, into the complete silence that is sometimes referred to as "the gap". Your mind is no longer caught up in its noisy internal chatter and is instead exposed to its own deepest nature: pure awareness.”

Deepak Chopra

Primordial Sound Meditation can be learned on a 3-day course at the Chopra Center or through qualified instructors at locations throughout the world.

Their website clearly explains the benefits of meditation and how meditation works…

‘There is a common misconception that meditation is about forcing your mind to be perfectly quiet, getting rid of all thoughts. This myth leads many people to try meditating once or twice, then give up in frustration when they can’t stop the flood of thoughts.’

Dr. Deepak Chopra is the internationally bestselling author of many books, including BUDDHA, A Story of Enlightenment, The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success; Quantum Healing; Ageless Body, Timeless Mind; The Path to Love and Life After Death: The Burden of Proof; and most recently Jesus, A Story of Enlightenment. Dr Chopra is also the CEO of The Chopra Center for Well Being in Carlsbad, California.

As an architect for over 40 years, I have been aware that meditation would be a valuable asset in reducing the inevitable tensions of a busy life. However, I never managed to find a meditation technique that I could relate to until I learned Primordial Sound Meditation. What I have found particularly valuable is the contact I make with a part of me that knows the answers to problems that in my normal life are elusive. To anyone hesitating about this course, I would say, “Do it".

This site started its life, in prehistoric web time (about 10 years ago) as Robert Culpepper’s site to attract students to his primordial sound meditation course. He continues to practice but he’s taking a break from teaching. Robert is one of Deepak Chopra’s Certified Meditation Teachers.
