Suni-ai: Deep Listening

with Suhab Kaur

“From listening, death cannot approach. Nanak says, those who listen flower forever”

You are invited to join the Guru Ram Das Project’s forthcoming One for the Heart online workshop, on Saturday 10th January 2026. We will celebrate the start of the New Year with an exploration of Suni-ai, the state of "deep listening" as taught by Guru Naanak Dev Ji.

Guru Naanak's teachings on Suni-ai are contained in several stanzas (Pauris 8-11) of his sacred poem Japji Sahib. Guru Nanak teaches us that through deep listening we can acquire the highest virtues, the wisdom of sages, and the ability to “comprehend the depths of boundless knowledge”.

Suni-ai is a profound, active state of being fully present to sensory and spiritual input. It is the state of the awakened self-sensory human; it relates to the extraordinary dimension of the 10th Spiritual Body, the Radiant Body, and its virtue, Royal Courage.

Suni-ai (Deep listening) is a way of living. As we practice to listen in this way, we learn to focus and expand, tune into subtle frequencies and invisible dimensions, connect to the Earth and the Sky. Our ability to go beyond the chatter of the ego mind and listen to our higher self, to our intuition, to nature and to others becomes refined, and as a consequence we feel more grounded, supported, and connected to the larger Whole. We listen deeply so that we can tune to the Hukam, the divine will, and act in harmony with the flow of life, in a neutral, intuitive, fearless, inclusive, compassionate way.

In the workshop we will learn how the expansive and transformative practice of Suni-ai/Deep Listening can lead us to a spiritual awakening and to living a creative and purposeful life. We will also practice a meditation for Strenghtening our Inner Voice and reflect, from the perspective of the sacred numerology of Karam Kriya, on how Suni-ai relates to the year we are about to enter, 2026, and its qualities and its gifts.
