Just look around, and you will see and comprehend the involvement of music with everything associated with life! You will be astonished to see the vast ocean of music flowing abundantly around you!

How this fantastic nature behaves itself is full of music. Please think of this wide universe for a moment, as usual, as an enormous ball, which is good for our assumption.

The giant lively ball revolves around its axis and simultaneously orbits the mighty sun!
What else can you see other than the everlasting and rhythmic music? Think of the moon, which revolves around the earth; there is also the all-conquering majestic beauty of music. The innumerable stars, the ‘milky way,’ the floating butterflies, the blossoming of a flower—all these give us the enchanting thrill of eternal music!
The whole of nature has a touch of music, and the total environment is fully dipped in music! If you watch closely, you will see that even the changing weather has a rhythm that can be attributed to music!

Without music, life would be a mistake!” What a nice way to express the greatness of music! The entire world will be bare ground without the presence of music!

What else is this, other than the vibration of the eternal music?
Why do some music troupes sometimes sometimes become the ’emotion’ of the general population worldwide? We must sometimes break the barriers of nationality, religion, or language! It is simply because of the magical or enchanting spirit generated by the ‘music’ they create! Here in India, there are so many immortal stories about music passed from generation to generation wthat convey music’s beauty and divinity. One among them is the great ‘Tansen’ (who lived during the time of the great Mughal emperor ‘Akbar’), which emphasizes the quality and strength of the music.
It is believed that he was able to create rain with his ‘Megha malhar raga,’ a part of the Indian music tradition! Soliloquy is often quoted as an example of the magnitude and depth of music. Music can indeed change your moods! For example, the ‘morning raga’ of traditional Indian music can create a typical freshness within you in the early hours of the dawning time. Similarly, when you feel dull and moody, you will return to the ‘lively mood if you can hear some smooth ragas.’ Some people believe that music is capable of curing some mental diseases.
