Short Story: Music, and listening properly, are linked in our makeups

The illustrious Sufi master, Yahanak Janla, was also a master musician. He had a great singing voice, and before all of his talks, that he gave to his students, he would sing a song, that he had composed, both the music, and the words of, himself. He would say that our voice has a psychological value, which sets up the coming talk, because the psychological element of appreciation, and love, had been now established in the students, to raise them to a level, high enough, to understand more of his talk. Music raises your inner vibration to one that is in tune with love, in such a way that its wisdom then exudes out of you, as being soaked with love, allows its wisdom to be soaked into your psyche too, and then this comes out of you to allow you to better understand what is being said too. The notes tune the audience to love, in a way that no listener can prevent the vibrations that the music creates in them from affecting them. Singing is like a magic wand, he claimed, that prepares an audience to hear the truth, in the coming talk, because they have now been primed, and raised to the right level of awareness, and tuned to the right mindset, and heart-set, to hear the real message within the words. Singing first also helped the master, himself, to put the right spirit into his coming talks too. Such inspiration helped to create the right speaking voice for him to be better heard by his audience too. As we progress on our spiritual path, this master claimed that our voice will change, and become naturally more melodious then too. Every voice is an instrument, in God's choir, and when we attune ourselves to our true inner voice, it will more naturally affect our audience, who will hear the heavenly music coming from the words, too. They will then have the wisdom to listen, to your talk, as they will be refined by the power of the voice in that way too, especially if you have sung to them first. And so, this great Sufi Master, was also a great singer. "Music doesn't lie." Jimi Hendrix, the great, but short-lived, American musician,(1942 to 1970) said this, and this great Sufi Master, in my story, knew this simple truth too.
