“If we can feel that
“It is not our voice,
“Not our fingers,
“But some reality deep inside our heart
“Which is expressing itself,
“Then we will know that it is
“The soul’s music.” – Sri Chinmoy

Have you ever picked up a guitar or put in your favorite CD and let the music carry you away to a place of bliss and ecstasy?
Most people might not understand where this euphoric feeling comes from, but in my opinion, it comes from an innately spiritual place. I think music elevates our consciousness and introduces us to a spiritual reality that’s comprised of pure sound and color, and this is why it appeals to so many people.
As we’ll learn here, music is a universal, metaphysical language that we can tap into and use to lighten our vibration and uplift anyone who hears our joyful, melodic sounds. Plenty of people think there’s more to music than meets the eye, and we’ll get the most out of it if we can open up and consider that it could actually be spiritual.
There’s obviously something mystical about music.
