There are two ways for soul to leap to the higher consciousness, a state where His presence becomes undeniable & blessings, scintillating warm. One is of silence and the other of music. People have been praying in silence and celebrating His presence with devotional music since time began. These attempts have gotten instilled into the lives of those of us who grew up believing His existence. This kind of music has changed with time too, but it has remained solid in its purpose. What purpose? I'll get to that later. Sometimes I find myself at a point of confusion thinking, what would an atheist experience after listening to what we call a religious hymn. There may or may not be surprises for him/her. Still, there must be a bias created, an internal conflict rising on the boundaries of his/her disbelief.
The main sign of soul music is that it defies the boundaries of religion. Its purpose is that it unites all the perceptions of God. There exists no other way to prove that He is really one than to experience His same pristine presence in music from different religions.Those disparate yet synchronized notes in the hymn of invocation make us see that they signify the same one truth, of one being.
The devotional music, be it Sufi or Hindu or Christian in origin, leads to oneness. This sound is like a sphere with the listener in the center, reveling in the joy that is union of all religions.
