Aha! Discoveries and Realizations about
Artists, Community and Humanity
If the state of affairs on this globe were less volatile… if world economics were in better shape, if world conflicts and vested interests didn't exist… if the arts were appreciated more… if big entertainment had a clue to the real value (not money) of the arts… if kids were allowed to participate in the creation of beauty, community and life… if people were taught to think and build...
If there were much better conditions in this world, then reatives might not have to take on a new adventure and might not have to use their imagination greater powers.
If the situation were better, then artists could go on being poor or at least complaining about how their talents are underestimated and undervalued. They could go on creating beautiful art and musical compositions, and designs… and hiding it away in their hearts and minds and file cabinets. Or simply enjoying it themselves only! They could continue immersing themselves in spiritual nirvana's or creative muses and feeling the beauty of their most treasured creations… all to themselves! They could be themselves without any interference… totally free spirits… and be totally independent and liberated. Purchase this book.
Changing the World
through Art & Song
This is a unique book. It is about change. Changing the way we think, the way we listen to songs and the way we express songs and art. This book is not an attempt to be scholarly about the subjects of thinking, art, songs, songwriting or music. The author, though a songwriter and recording artist, has written the book more as a song lover and song observer.
Though Changing the World Through Art and Songs makes various general observations about songs and songwriters, their messages, their missions, etc., it is not about songwriting methods, tools or specific techniques. It is also not a scientific dissertation on how music affects our cells, our digestion, our nerve centers or our left, right or other brains.
Changing the World Through Art and Songs provides an interesting and concise discussion of the general nature of songs and their unique power to profoundly touch people as well as influence the broader society. The book helps us discover why we love our musical tunes - - ballads, stories and socially important songs - and some of the interesting ways we are drawn to them with such interest and passion.

Music without words means leaving behind the mind. And leaving behind the mind is meditation.
Meditation returns you to the source. And the source of all is sound. — Kabir
