What is Tyeif?
Tyeif (pronounced "tye-eef") is the name of the mystical script used to write the Shum language — a unique language designed specifically for meditation and inner exploration.
Unlike ordinary languages that describe the external world, Shum-Tyeif is crafted to express and navigate the subtle realms of consciousness that arise during deep meditation practice.
"Shum is the language of meditation. It names the areas of the mind that the meditator passes through and charts a path through them."
— Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami
Inner Consciousness

Ancient Wisdom
