Soundless sound, anahat, has been recognized in all systems of faith. Chanting is articulated sound. It is considered a kind of spiritual tool, which elevates ones consciousness.
Chanting: Discerning the Spirit in Sound, a popular seminar, explored the role of sound and chanting in different faith traditions and the impact of sound on the physical and spiritual dimensions of a human being.
