From the ancient times, music
is something that has put people, in touch
with their inner most feelings. Different kind
of music works upon different emotions of an
individual, and releases the various incomplete
emotions leading towards a total healing of
body and mind.
The mind and body are connected. The human
mind is not housed in the brain as per the
conventional thought but rather; the mind is
present everywhere and therefore pervades every
cell of the body. What is the human mind? Mind
is an aggregate of all life experiences be
it pain, pleasure, hurt, anger, joy, anxiety;
it could be anything.
Any positive emotion causes a cell to vibrate
at a higher frequency and negative vibrations
cause the cells to vibrate at lower frequency.
The negative emotion is nothing but an incompletely
experienced emotion. These emotions when stored
in the cells of the body are the diseases.
What is music? According to the ancient thinkers,
there are three aspects of music: singing,
playing and dancing. All three represent rhythm,
and all three represent tone in some form or
other. And what is the effect of music? The
effect of music is to regulate the rhythm of
another person, and to tune a person to the
music that is being performed.
What secret is there in music which attracts
all those who listen to it? It is the rhythm
which is being created. It is the tone of that
music which tunes a soul and raises it above
depression and despair of everyday life in
this world. And if one knew what rhythm was
needed for a particular individual in his trouble
and despair, what tone was needed, and to what
pitch that person's soul should be raised,
one would then be able to heal him with music.
Often the cause of illness is within. Although,
no doubt, many things are caused outwardly.
No single rule will cover everything. Undoubtedly,
as things have changed in the world and materialism
has spread throughout the world, this has influenced
things, not only in the West but in the East
also. The use of music for health and healing
of the soul, which was prevalent in ancient
times, is not found to the same extent now.
Music has been made a pastime, the means of
forgetting instead of realizing.
And it is the use one makes of things which
constitutes their fault or virtue.
