Bob Marley is really close to my heart and his songs have been like a Bible as I have been traveling around. I am sure many of you know his songs - Buffalo Soldier, Positive VIbrations, Natural Mystic, Turn your lights down low and many more.

We listening to Gilberto Gil, Richard Bona, Eric Clapton, Tracy Chapman, Amazigh Kateb, Baab Maal, Youssou Ndour and of course Bob himself.

"How does one put the spiritual significance of music on paper?" - a quote by Ravi Shankar


"How does one put the spiritual significance of music on paper?

Music transcends all languages and barriers and is the most beautiful communicative skill one can have.

Music makes us all experience different emotions or the Navarasa as we call it. Different types of music, whether it is vocal or instrumental, Eastern or Western, Classical or Pop or folk from any part of the world can all be spiritual if it has the power to stir the soul of a person and transcend time for the moment. It makes one get goose-bumps in the body and mind and equates the highest mental orgasm and the release of grateful tears!"
.
~ Ravi Shankar
