At first, I was very surprised to find the @ecotrain 's Question of the week#20
What is about Music?
With no musical background, I have no idea of even thinking to answer it. After a while I found myself whispering a song while taking shower (bathroom singer😉) and that made me to write on the topic.

“Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination
and life to everything." ― Plato
I think, music is part of everyone life. Infact we have grown up listening to the lullabies from our parent, which works quite well when language fails. And then it keep changing as per the genre we get into. When it comes to music, all of a sudden people start over to think upon the best music they listened or something which are in current chart busters. Silently whispering , or singing is part of life. Be you are in happy mood, or sad, or depress, or at work or at any situation, music just makes everything lively.
I remember, once on our trip to lawnsdowne (an indian hill station) all of us were very tired, due to overnight long drive, suddenly, I played some music from my mobile and the mood inside the car changed. Everyone pumped up with the beats and they started feeling refresh. Such is the magic of music, which is used to express all kind of emotions.
The word music comes from the Greek word (mousike), which means "(art) of the Muses".
The main purpose of Music is to express and modulate emotion. It primary use is mood control.
Music is a language of emotion it can represent different feelings and barge into the soul easily Music touches our souls so deeply because we humans are born poetic and life has a rhythm of its own.
Look around you and you will find everyone, putting their ear buds, or headphone and listening to music. Music has many genre. And everyone enjoy their own genre as per the likings. From instrumental, to devotional, to rock, to jazz, to reggae or to anything each one of us has own choice or it may changes overtime life span.
I am too not remain untouched with the music, from listening to lullabies, to kids songs to cartoon songs ,to patriotic, to romantic, to motivational to Devotional. My music journey does took a long walk till now.
Few of the musical link as it passed over time.
(the lullabies song)
(the kids song)
(mowgli cartoon song)
( teenage romantic song)
.....the list getting long as I started to getting pass each age milestone. Being Indian, it only includes hindi music.
And finally, what soothes me now is more of a Meditatinal or Devotional songs that brings peace and help me relax my mind. There are many bhajans or mantras or artis that does played most of the time in Indian household. And my favourite track is one of them, especially Krishna Bhajan
There were many list,mostly in my mobile, which truly unwind the mind and help me to relax. The soulful music help me to concentrate hard on my life and refocus on achieving the targets. These really makes my life quite meaningful.
Another important Devotional music on my playlist is Sounds of Isha - Adiyogi it has variety of songs and each of them truly allow us to be free from all worries. As it like surrendering to the unknown invisible power.
Well well.. I am not going to make everyone bored with those Indian music's. But those were few from my list that, I usually listen once in a day. The soulful music is very soothing to mind & heart.
This is about music and my journey there on so far. Something which makes our heart and mind work quite brilliantly. And also my response to..
