I've just recently discovered this thing called meditation. This activity/practice seeks to put your senses to alpha state, where it can rejuvenate and release negativities and impurities in your mind and soul. Part of meditation as I've discovered, is listening to zen music - but not just ordinary zen music, but incorporating a trivial technology called binaural.
Not all folks can handle this craziness. To some, it's impractical and just a waste of time.
I agree to some areas though and I'm still a bit skeptical. Not fully embracing it, but convinced on the early results I am getting.
This part of me is really an evidence of my boredom in life which I think have influenced me to recourse my normal thinking to something like this. Unproductive, yes. I'm not sure where it will lead me, but small and minute changes have resurfaced that can somewhat enlighten the skepticism within me.
Laugh at me if you want to. But I'm starting to feel more positive and joyful these days. If it makes me go back to the right frame of mind and spirit - I don't mind listening to the chirping of birds and the flowing river in the forest, which zen music is all about.
It made me connect to myself allowing me to comprehend the desires of my heart. It gave me peace and serenity which augmented my faith in Him. It is what is, and this is what currently floats my boat.
I'm crazy and I know that you know too, to each his own, my friend. :)
It actually works for me too. Helps lift me from my lingering depression
