Then it highlights new Tonalibus recordings in Playlist S and R (plus Coop B), as well as in Sounds. It touches on the expansion of Mantras of Soul and on the Spotify sounds collection “Ulrico Mix”. Finally, this update closes with an Ajahn Sumedho quote.

“Ulrico Mix” and “This is Ulrico” — Spotify editorial playlists
Tonalibus recordings are available on many internet platforms. Spotify is clearly the most significant and generates the playlist “Ulrico Mix“ with 50 pieces, half of them by Ulrico intermixed with recordings of other somewhat compatibly sounding musicians (3½ hours). This is in addition to the playlist mentioned in the last update “This is Ulrico — the essential tracks, all in one playlist” with 38 Tonalibus pieces by Ulrico (3¾ hours).
Revision and expansion of the page Mantras of Soul
Mantras of Soul presents “A blessing of Ōṃ / Aum ॐ — with love for all sentient beings” and “Tears of joy — mantra of soul” (plain version), both by Ulrico, plus now also a link to the “Mahamrityunjaya Mantra — a verse from the Rigveda” allegedly chanted by the Dalai Lama.
Closing quote on the sound of silence
“Listening to the sound of silence, you can begin to contemplate non-thinking, because when you are just listening to the cosmic sound there is no thought. It’s like this — emptiness, not-self. When you’re just with the cosmic sound alone, there is pure attention, no sense of person or personality, of me and mine. This points to anattā [no-self].
Relax into the sound, don’t try to force attention onto it. Just have a sense of relaxing and resting, peacefulness.”
