The Council of Bliss

This episode begins with the sound of the raindrops hitting the verandah roof, a gentle pitter-patter that gradually builds in intensity as the storm intensifies. The sound of the rain is accompanied by the distant rumble of thunder, the occasional twitter of birdsong and the suburban charm of a squeaky screen door closing as the storm approaches. 

This is the perfect background noise for relaxing, meditating, studying or sleeping.
