Soundless sounds, inner sounds, can be experienced at times in meditation or in spiritual practice as the Kundalini Shakti sweeps through the central axis of the chakra system. The inner movement of purifying, sweeping, and clearing energy channels to leave open the chakras can be accompanied by vivid sensory phenomena.
This can become so expressive at times, that sensory experiences coming only from within you, can feel AS IF they are out-loud.
Inner sounds can be as clear as a the hissing of a snake (at the base chakras), as tremendous as a lion's roar, or as intoxicating as bird calls or melodic flute (at the heart center).
Swami Kripananada, in the Sacred Power, wrote, "The awakened Shakti purifies the different senses.
The eyes gain the power of seeing even distant objects, the ears can hear the inner music, and divine fragrances and nectar are released."
If this happens within you - understanding how this is a part of the energy-rising journey can be helpful. You do not need to do anything and there is nothing to correct - only realize that your inner machinery is working well. Just like your refrigerator is not broken if you hear the "kerplunk" of the ice, or your window is not broken if you can see light-patterns shinning through in the morning sun.
