Addiction to music is good for health.....!!!!!!!!!

Just fall in love with art to explore its world. It has no language barrier. It’s beyond words. Music is one of the best forms of art. Music means Self-blooming and oneness. When this self expands it’s not only the individual self but the unlimited Self. Music is the expansion of unlimited reality. Music is universal.

There are many genres of music like classical music, rock, jazz, metal, rap, folk, etc. They are in the format of songs having lyrics and  other form composed only with musical instrument with no words to express the emotion of music. It’s the eminence of instrumental music that you have liberty to drive your frame of mind.

Only a bunch of people prefer listening instrumental music over songs. Shandilya Partho , an instrumental  music addict says, “Music possesses both qualities – it’s soothing as well as agitating. Instrumental music particularly, being bereft of words, does not meddle with one’s thinking process in fact it augments it. Usually when one listens to songs (i.e with lyrics), one’s mood is generally being dictated by the words…whereas while listening to instrumental, u have a measure of freedom with the direction of your thinking process”.

Milind Tulankar , India’s top most Jaltarang musician and also an artist. Recently he gifted Lata Mangeshkar her portrait. His definition of music is in the form of divine.  He compares music with the manifestation of God. As god is in the form of Guna and Nirgun. So is with music, lyrics goes with is Guna in a physical form and instrumental music as a Nirguna. He says, “ Jaltarng is the only instrument which always has a blissful melody, no sad versions”.  Jaltrang is one of the oldest instruments in the world, but most rarely heard instruments today.

Call of the Valley one of the very popular instrumental music album of santoor , Guitar and Bansuri. Composed by Shivkumar Sharma – santoor, the guitarist Brijbhushan Kabra, and flutist Hariprasad Chaurasia were all aged about 30. When you listen to this music you could actually feel that they used their instruments to tell the story. A day in the life of a shepherd in Kashmir using ragas associated with various times of the day to advance the dramatic narrative. Its music is wonderful that it really distresses you. One should listen to Call of the valley at least once in life.

Music is heard by each individual according to his own capacity of receptivity.  Music is true not only from the intellectual and emotional point of view, but also from the spiritual point of view. Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life. Music like every creation of art, is mightier than the artist. So music is also seen as a healer in stress, it is used as remedy in various treatments. Addiction to music is  really good for health it keeps you happy and blissful.
