Music is the easiest method of meditation.  Whoever can let himself dissolve into music has no need to seek anything else to dissolve into.

-- Osho

Music should be healing; music should uplift the soul; music should inspire.  There is no better way of getting closer to God, of rising higher towards the spirit, of attaining spiritual perfection than music, if only it is rightly understood.

-- Hazrat Inayat Khan

Music cleanses the understanding, inspires it, and lifts it into a realm which it could not reach if it were left to itself.

-- Henry W. Beecher

There are certain things that have universal attributes, like music.  Something of greater magnitude is conveyed by them.  They connect us with the universal storehouse of life and knowledge.

-- Swami Paramananda
