Bidden or unbidden, God is present.
C. G. Jung
To me, music is one of the endlessly compelling forms of the Divine. But with four planets in open-minded Aquarius, I could never have a narrow view of so-called ‘spiritual’ music. I figure if it speaks to your heart, moves you, comforts you, or just makes you fly, that’s plenty.
How could God NOT be present?
Once a woman called me who had been a resident of a meditation community for many years. She said the group had very strict ideas of ‘dharmic’ music. Certain chants and bhajans were considered godly, everything else profane. Then she confessed her own guilty secret: each day she eagerly awaited the moment when she could flee to the privacy of her blue Subaru and rock out to the Stones. She was so paranoid other members would see her that she drove several miles before she cranked the volume to the max and went to-tally, unabashedly out of control.
