In
many esoteric cosmologies the source of everything around us is
thought to be sound or vibration. (Even The Bible talks about “the
Word made flesh”.) Thus in many spiritual traditions music is a
central element of spiritual practice. It could be that of all of
the avenues available to us for flowing coherently back to our
source and onward to our unfoldment music is the most alive, the
most useful, and the one most easily taken by anyone. Unencumbered
by language, by thought, by systems of beliefs, music is made of
precisely what we are made of — beautifully organized and
proportioned vibration. We will explore how music works in our
physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual bodies
