“A divine dance appears in the soul and the body at the time of peace and union.
Anyone can learn this dance, just listen to the music.”
Rumi
There are special incantations used in India, called mantras, which have great vibratory force.
Repeating them aloud or mentally – with sincere feeling, intelligent understanding and intense concentration and determination to persevere until Divine contact is actually felt – produces distinct results;
body and mind are charged with power as their vibratory rate is heightened.”
Paramahansa Yogananda

Music is the greatest mystery in the world.
The whole manifestation is made of vibrations, and vibrations contain all its secrets.
The vibrations of music free the soul and take from a person all the heaviness which keeps him bound.
