But I feel music has a very important role in ritual activity and that being able to join in musical activity along with dancing could have been necessary at a very early stage of human culture.

Music is the wine which inspires one to new generative processes and I am Bacchus who presses out this glorious wine for mankind and makes them spiritually drunken.

Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life.

Music is very spiritual it has the power to bring people together.

The goal of spiritual practice is full recovery and the only thing you need to recover from is a fractured sense of self.

I think a spiritual journey is not so much a journey of discovery. It's a journey of recovery. It's a journey of uncovering your own inner nature. It's already there.

Movies about space raise those questions of what we're doing here and that inevitably introduces a spiritual dimension.

You know what I like to do on a Sunday morning? Clean my house. I really enjoy it it's my ritual. I require tidiness actually. I have to have everything spotless before I can relax.

But you know they don't enjoy the dinner hour together. It's just not as much of a ritual at night and it's interesting. I think the ritual is taking place perhaps more in the morning.

Spirituality does two things for you. One you are forced to become more selfless two you trust to providence. The opposite of a spiritual man is a materialist. If I was a materialist I would be making lots of money doing endorsements doing cricket commentary. I have no interest in that.
