A transcendent exploration of the nature and effects of sound by the Sufi master. The Music of Life is the definitive collection of Hazrat Inayat Khan’s teachings on sound, presenting the Sufi master’s vision of the harmony that underlies and infuses every aspect of our lives. Inayat Khan explores the science of breath, the law of rhythm, the creative process, and both the healing power and psychological influence of music and sound, all with deep insight and wisdom. “What makes us feel drawn to music is that our whole being is music: our mind and our body, the nature in which we live, the nature that has made us, all that is beneath and around us, it is all music. We are close to all this music, and live and move and have our being in music.” —Inayat Khan Review: I was listening to my heart in finding Music the great healer then but also in finding this book now - This book answers my heart's knowings of the power of Music. I had a severe brain injury and was in a rehab hospital for 3/1/2 years re-learning all basic life skills. It was the healing power of Music I did on my own that healed me. I went on to get another degree with honors and so much more. I sing the power of Music as does Hazrat Inayat Khan. His book answers over and over why I healed so profoundly. I allowed Music to heal me when doctors could not: I was listening to my heart in finding Music the great healer then but also in finding this book now. I got my life back with the power of music This book will inspire one to achieve the confidence to heal through Music as Science now and all those PBS specials attest to. Review: Unparalelled teachings about sound and music from a Sufi mystic musician. - H. Inayat Khan's teachings of applied musical mysticism are inexhaustibly profound and have influenced thousands. John Coltrane, Philip Glass and Mickey Hart are some of the many well-known musicians who say they have been inspired by this book. Some of the subjects covered are Vibrations, Sound, Harmony, Voice, Abstract Sound, and much more. Previous versions of this book have been my companions for more than 40 years; I cannot recommend it enough.

Esoteric Music
For all those musicians and music lovers who want to know the depth and importance of music, this is a must read. Hazrat Inayat Kahn devulges the deepest secrets of music and music making, and fills the reader with an understanding of how music itself is the building block of life. As a musician, I have bought at least ten copies of this book to give to friends. It is a must read for those interested in understanding the value of music in our lives.

Surpased my expectations.
Product arrived promptly... I think the merchant disclaimed the covers did not match and I forgot about that. Not to worry, the cover doesn't matter, the content does! The "used" description was perfect and I am very pleased with my purchase. I will be purchasing from this store again! Thank you!

Lots of misprint!
I just started reading it and already found many misprints in the first 3 pages. This is very upsetting and disrespectful to the author and the readers. When the words of the profound Wisdom and Knowledge that were carefully written to pass to the next generation are presented like that it shows how far aback we are. Very disappointed with the publisher. And hope they will improve their reputation.
