Do you know that our soul is composed of harmony?
– Leonardo DaVinci
At the root of all power and motion, there is music and rhythm, the play of patterned frequencies against the matrix of time. We know that every particle in the physical universe takes its characteristics from the pitch and pattern and overtones of its particular frequencies. It’s singing. Before we make music, music makes us.

People say the soul on hearing the song of creation entered the body but, in reality, the soul itself was the song.
– The Sufi Master Hazart Khan
Consciousness is somehow a by-product of the simultaneous, high-frequency firing of neurons in different parts of the brain. It's the meshing of these frequencies that generates consciousness, just as tones from individual instruments produce the rich, complex, and seamless sounds of a symphony orchestra.
– Francis Crick, Co-Discoverer of DNA
Music is the mediator between the life of senses and the life of spirit.
– Beethoven
The Science of the future will be based on sympathetic vibrations.
– Rudolph Steiner
Architecture is crystallized music.
– Goethe
Music should be healing, music should uplift the soul, music should inspire; then there is no better way of getting closer to God, of rising higher towards the spirit, of attaining spiritual perfection, than music, if only it is rightly understood.
– The Sufi Hazrat Kahn
I believe that from the earth emerges a musical poetry which is by the nature of its source, tonal. I believe that these sources cause to exist a phonology of music, which evolves from the universe, known as the harmonic series. And that there is an equally universal musical syntax which can be codified and structured in terms of symmetry and repetition.
– Leonard Bernstein
Everything we do is connected to music. Civilization is based on a certain level of discipline and order, and this is the essence of the structure of music.
– Isaac Stern, renowned violinist
In the microcosmic universe of the body of man, the Aum (Om) vibrations work through the vital activities in the astral spinal centers of life with their creative vibratory elements of earth, water, fire, air, and ether. Through these, man’s body is created, enlivened, and sustained. These vibrations emit characteristic vibrations of Pranava as they operate. The devotee whose consciousness becomes attuned to these inner astral sounds finds himself gradually ascending to higher states of realization.
– Paramahansa Yogananda,
The Yoga of the Bhagavad Gita
Your "vibration" is your overall state of being.
Everything in the universe is made of energy vibrating at different frequencies. Even things that look solid are made up of vibrational energy fields at the quantum level.
Please find these quotes from great minds for inspiration and contemplation as they pertain to sound, music and healing. May you be in alignment with your higher self and the vibrational energy your soul desires.
