I have been to dozens of concerts, seeing pretty much every group/artist that I enjoy! It such a euphoric feeling getting to see artists live in concert. While I am not religious, I am a spiritual person, and music definitely helps take me to a spiritual place! Being surrounded by people who love the same music as you is such an awesome feeling, almost like a family. You guys could be different in every single way, but have the love for that artist or band in common, which is so cool to me. The same music can have one effect on someone, and a totally different one on another person. Musical meaning is subjective and can be interpreted in infinite ways, which is amazing!]]> 2018-02-28 19:53:19 UTC https://padlet.com/dommalpica/v16vccsip607/wish/236639727 dommalpica https://padlet.com/dommalpica/v16vccsip607/wish/236690121 I love this picture of the House of Blues in Dallas because at the top of the main stage, there are various religious and spiritual symbols. When I attend concerts there, I feel so connected to myself and to others. This reminds me that music can be interpreted in different ways for different people, of whatever religious background.]]> 2018-02-28 21:39:15 UTC https://padlet.com/dommalpica/v16vccsip607/wish/236690121 dommalpica https://padlet.com/dommalpica/v16vccsip607/wish/236691160 "Music is my religion"

Music can also aid in attaining a higher consciousness. Many people meditate to music, or repeat a mantra, which can be musical. While some music is literally intended for religion, other music can simply impact someone in a religious or spiritual manner.]]> 2018-02-28 21:44:09 UTC https://padlet.com/dommalpica/v16vccsip607/wish/236691807 dommalpica https://padlet.com/dommalpica/v16vccsip607/wish/236692986 “Music, once admitted to the soul, becomes a sort of spirit, and never dies.” 
Edward Bulwer-Lytton

While there are no words and no discernible melody, this music is very powerful and is used for healing both the body and soul. ]]> 2018-02-28 21:49:30 UTC https://padlet.com/dommalpica/v16vccsip607/wish/236693612 dommalpica https://padlet.com/dommalpica/v16vccsip607/wish/236694201 This music is for meditation. It helps the brain reach a level of higher consciousness and focus. The music isn't something you'd jam out to with friends, but it is still powerful and effective in its purpose, which is to calm the mind. I meditate a lot, and listening to music like this really helps my mind reach a higher state. ]]> 2018-02-28 21:51:15 UTC https://padlet.com/dommalpica/v16vccsip607/wish/236694201 dommalpica https://padlet.com/dommalpica/v16vccsip607/wish/236695232 “Music is the language of the spirit. It opens the secret of life bringing peace, abolishing strife.” 
Kahlil Gibran
