If Prayer[Davening] is People Speaking to God, Then Meditation [Reflection] is People Listening to God.

See
NishmaBlog: If Torah is God speaking to people, then Talmud is people speaking to God.

Corollary -

If Prayer [Davening] is People Speaking to God, Then Meditation [Reflection] is People Listening to God.

When Reading the Torah there is no doubt that one can hear God's "voice" talking to us directly
There is a secondary and more subtle voice, and that can be heard after Davening or Learning Torah, when one sits still and listens for an "Inner" or "still small voice". Maybe it's not technically God's voice but rather that of one's Higher N'shamah, at any rate one can get in touch with Divine Spirit by simply listening after a bit of preparation.

Thus after a certain effort [Na'ase] one may experience a Nishma.

Shalom,
