The book "Magical Sounds" takes us to a journey for understanding the place and importance of the musical sound in human existance.
Everything in nature is music. Each and every thing in the universe vibrates in its own particular way. Start of the sea waves, wind rustle, the sound of carried leaves in a storm, and up to a beating heart and breathing sounds.
Along human history the musical sound kept a central place in its influences on humans. From a direct physiological effects - in body and emotions, and up to dipper effects - in spirit and consciousness.
Such usages are known from early days and cultures. In ancient Egupt, ancient far east (China, Tibet, India), in the Sufi islamic tradition (and these are but a few examples) musical sounds and tones were inherentic part of the healing, ceremonial, holly and enlightment processes.
In the main religious sources, as well, we can witness the central importance of music in the ceremonal processes, and evidence of that could be found even in the jewish temple, holly scripts and ancient traditions.
In modern days we can witness the strengthening awareness and knowledge concerning the importance of the musical tone. It could be, perhaps, that what is found so far is partly an aspect of that ancient knowledge that was lost (or hidden). A knowledge, of which a wise usage may tribute and forward human development, to a higher and happier state.
