The Spiritual Origins of Sound and Music -
Project Peace On Earth

"People say that the soul, on hearing the song of creation, entered the body, but in reality the soul itself was the song." - 14th Century Sufi poet Hafiz

Research has shown that music has the power to change emotional states, shift our mental outlooks, change our physiology, and impact spiritual awareness.  Certain types of music, devotional in nature, can also have the power to transform individual and collective consciousness into the heightened states of love, forgiveness, compassion, and physical healing.  These heightened states of love, forgiveness, and compassion are also what empowers human awareness to identify societal, geopolitical, and environmental problems, and at the same time create and implement solutions. This paper explores the possibility of how a globally-telecast concert of spiritually inspired music can shift the collective consciousness so that each of us experiences our innate divinity, and witnesses and recognizes this same divinity in others, resulting in our ability to recognize the sacredness of our planet’s wildlife, its natural resources and our custodial responsibility and honor for the earth.  In this way, we may grow to honor the spiritual, cultural, and ethnic diversity that is the watershed of God’s creative expression.
