“Music takes us out of the actual and whispers to us dim secrets that startle our wonder as to who we are, and for what, whence, and whereto”-Ralph Waldo Emerson.
Why music? An interesting fact is that sound can easily be absorbed by our mind. So when a calming sound is played while meditating, our mind absorbs that sound and creates a projection of the same. The mind then helps us to focus on the music or the sound.
Music is also known as the universal language of God. When the subtle sound of music enters the heart, the heart finds itself immersed in the music. The heart communicates with the music and this becomes a subtle form of inner communion. Slowly, the music helps the mind, heart, and the body to be in commune with each other. There are different styles of music for meditation:
Soothing music
Soothing music can be compared to pure bliss. It is soft and helps in calming the mind so that it can focus on the chakras and energy field. Normally, soothing music doesn’t have any vocal rendition and is composed using instruments like violin, piano, sitar, bagpipes, table etc.
Mantra music
The mantra for meditation is a completely different form of music for meditation. This type of music has vocal rendition of mantra’s and instruments in the background. The tempo of this type of music can vary from slow to fast. Mantras have different purposes such as liberation, healing, blessing, removing obstacles to awareness and flourishing of positive states of mind.
Binaural music
This type of music for meditation comes from modern research in psycho-acoustics and physiology and contains binaural beats. This music is created in such a way that it has a direct and profound effect on your mind. It helps the mind to relax and focus.
Mindfulness bells
One of the most powerful meditation aids, the mindfulness bells can be quite loud and accompanied by overtones. The salient aspect of this music is that it has a tone of religion and is great for prayer meditation.
