Can you hear that frequency?

[ButterflyWoman]

I have a constant extremely fine high pitched frequency or whine or ringing I'd call it - that is pretty close to 11000 hz - Not exact, but close. Its loudest when theres no other noise interference <-- sort of a duh statement there I guess. I wonder if everyone experiences this or something like it?

I've always had that. I can remember being very young (four, maybe) and lying in bed listening to the ringing in my ears. I get it quite severely sometimes, in fact, and in my case, it's classified as tinnitus. Most of the time, I'm not bothered by it, and I find listening to it useful in some situations. (In some situations, it can make it so that I am literally unable to understand someone's speech, though. Not so useful then. )

I never thought of that. Might come in handy.

From what I learned- when the ears can't hear a certain frequency well- because it's too high/low pitched (there could be loads of reasons, like hearing too much loud music with or without headphones, but a person's hearing deteriorates with age- it usually begins to deteriorate in the third decade of life but nowadays with young people it begins earlier because of loud music and such). So what the brain does- it makes you hear a certain "ringing" sound in your ears, instead- to make up for the sound that your ears can't pick up.

And BTW- I can hear it too sometimes, in my right ear mostly

If you're really bothered by it, see a doctor. There are treatments for tinnitus that might help. I understand there's something with white noise, but I haven't looked into it much. There are also a few health conditions that have ringing ears/tinnitus as a symptom, so that's worth checking out, as well.

I hear it also. The Kauai Monastery's writings say that the high pitched "eeee" sound is caused by the Ida and pineda nerve currents.
(I may have then spelled wrong) Each is at a different frequency. You should be able to hear each and the combined tones. (Of course this is not including any physical damage). Sometimes it is Very Loud.

Also, when you hear a tone, they say beings are known by their tone. But; I think this is when you hear a tone suddenly. This is not the same as the steady "eee" sound.

If it is not too bothersome,, concentrating on it can produce the trance state.

I'm only stating what I've read and experienced.

Ida and Pingala. I didn't want to edit yours, so here it is.

"Eeee" that's a perfect description. Sometimes over the background eeeee I get a sudden, louder, "incoming" eeee of a slightly different tone. I joke with my husband that I'm receiving transmissions from the ether lol. But it makes sense to me also that I have hearing -damage ( glorious results of a misspent youth).

I get that, too, sometimes. The "key change" thing.

I'm pretty sure mine is ear damage, too. When I was a kid, we used to go to the shooting range and I never wore ear protection (nobody did, it was a long time ago and people were stupider or something), and then I used to blast my music in earphones back in the days before earphones were regulated to try to protect your ears. And I went to a few rock concerts in the Eighties without ear protection (I learned my lesson after the first one and went with earplugs after that and found I could hear everything perfectly well but not have my ears ring literally for days afterward). But, alas, the damage is done...

Thankfully, I'm actually not that bothered by it most of the time.

The sound I hear is intense yet gentle....and I have nothing to compare the sound with what we have here on Earth....but it does invade me totally....and it has several purposes...even to fill me with love and Comfort....but also to allert my senses....

Love

At times, when its not very loud, it is comforting. Sometimes I just listen to it; to "see" what happens, kind of like exploring it.
If I can recall correctly, I think Robert Monroe mentions it, but I can't recall where I've read it.
