Writings on music by Sri Chinmoy
1. Music: God’s Universal Language
“Music is the inner or universal language of God. I do not know French or German or Italian. But if music is played, immediately the heart of the music enters into my heart, or my heart enters into the music.

My heart is communing with the heart of the music and in our communion we become inseparably one.” Read more
