Meaning and the Song of the Soul

Music is the language of the spirit. It opens the secret of life bringing peace, abolishing strife.

- Kahlil Gibran -

Meaning and the Song of the Soul

"Meaning is what calls from the depths of the soul.
It is the song that sings us into life. Whether we have a meaningful life depends upon whether we can hear this song, this primal music of the sacred. The sacred is not something primarily religious or even spiritual. It is not a quality we need to learn or to develop. It belongs to the primary nature of all that is. When our ancestors knew that everything they could see was sacred, this was not something taught but instinctively known. It was as natural as sunlight, as necessary as breathing. It is a fundamental recognition of the wonder, beauty and divine nature of the world. And from this sense of the sacred, real meaning is born, the meaning that makes our hearts sing with the deepest purpose of being alive." Llewellyn Vaughn-Lee shares more in this beautiful passage. { read more }
