The type of music a person listens to tells you so much about them and everything about how they’re feeling in that moment. Every single one of us, all over the world, has music that makes us cry and music that makes us jump for joy. Music has the power to heal the deepest wounds and make us fly higher and more freely than we ever imagined. With this understanding … welcome to the ministry of sound!
Here is a wonderful story that shows the importance of music. It proves that we not only hear with our ears but our soul too:
Our Song...
When a woman in a certain African tribe knows that she is pregnant, she goes out into the wilderness with a few friends and together they pray and meditate until they hear the song of the child. They recognize that every soul has its own vibration that expresses its unique flavor and purpose. When the women attune to the song, they sing it out loud. Then they return to the tribe and teach it to everyone else. When the child is born, the community gathers and sings the child's song to him or her. Later, when the child enters education, the village gathers and chants the child's song. When the child passes through the initiation to adulthood, the people again come together and sing. At the time of marriage, the person hears his or her song. Finally, when the soul is about to pass from this world, the family and friends gather at the person's bed, just as they did at their birth, and they sing the person to the next life.
