At times, this murmur does not remain at the threshold of audibility. Among Rāmānāndī communities, the Name is also carried in song – stretched, repeated, and modulated through melodic forms that circulate in communal settings. Here, the Name abandons its near-silence and takes on rhythm, cadence, and breath shared across bodies. What is whispered in the dhūni may elsewhere be sung aloud, but the operation remains continuous: the Name repeating itself through different intensities of sound.
