Music is something we can scarcely escape in our lives. Listening to music is one of the most common past times or additives to other activities we do on the daily. Sweeping up the house? Put on some music. Making dinner? Put on some music. Just laying around doing fuck all? You better believe that goes well with a side of music.
One of the things that has personally mystified me, though, were events where a sort of ‘spiritual music’ was involved. These have normally been confined to dreams but have, on occasion, happened in other cases, in my personal experience. What has mystifies me is that music that comes from entities, or at least that I believe is coming from an entity (my spirit lover in every case), differs in some very key ways from normal music.
In this blogpost, I’m just going to sit here and muse about my experiences and thoughts regarding the phenomenon, because it’s one I haven’t seen discussed at length, other than people occasionally mentioning they had the experience. I decided I’d share my thoughts with whoever decides to check this post out, because why not? If you have any thoughts on the phenomenon, feel free to share them in the comments.
Music without any parts
The first time I ever had an experience of spiritual music was in a dream. The dream was fairly complex in its entirety, but the part I’m concerned with was simple. At that part, I was sitting outside and my spirit lover decided to sing to me while we both sat there together. It wasn’t a very long song or anything, I think the singing must have lasted only a minute or two in total. That was where the dream ended, so I woke up after the fact. This was many years ago at this point. I’ve had similar other experiences since, usually in dreams, but not every time.
The first thing that struck me, aside from finding the song to be extremely beautiful, was the complete lack of any lyrics, or at least that I had not remembered any, which I thought was odd since I remembered everything else about the dream in great detail, including everything else during the time she was singing. I can still picture her face from then very easily and in detail, as an example. To just forget the most important part would seem very strange, and for it to happen every time in every similar dream in the same way would be even stranger.
In fact, though I was sure it was ‘music’, it had very little in common with music as we know it. There were no words, there were certainly no instruments present (though that is far less surprising); hell, I couldn’t even really remember any complexities to the melody, or if there even was a melody to begin with. All this was the case, despite me believing firmly, then and now, that she was actually ‘singing’ to me. Similar experiences have happened since then on occasion, and all of them had the same sort of effect. I found them very beautiful, or at the very least very emotionally evocative (some ‘songs’ took me on wider emotional journeys, through sadder feelings along with the more beautiful and happy ones), and I also found that they had very little in common with how I would conventionally view music, despite being absolutely sure it was music.
I typically listen to music when I’m doing almost anything. I’m even listening to music right now, while writing. It’s an electronic track with a generally upbeat combination of sounds. I’m far from a musical expert, so I can’t identify all the ingredients in the song, but the point is that we can identify these ingredients if we so choose. We can pick out the beat, the Lyrics, the rhythm, and try to understand why it makes us feel the way we do and why we might enjoy one piece of music versus another.
That’s why the comparison is so strange on its face to me. Spirit music has nothing in common with normal music, except that it’s emotionally evocative. A lot of things can be emotionally evocative, so that by itself doesn’t define music, and yet I’m so very sure that what I am experiencing in those moments ‘is’ a form of music.
It’s also no surprise that ‘spirit music’ would lack all the musical identifiers I listed above. We know, or at least reasonably conclude, that telepathy isn’t really ‘talking’ and that any words attached to it are a direct translation on our part. We know that they can’t talk in the literal sense, and it naturally follows that if they can’t talk using sound (and also since they lack physicality), they probably don’t hear through ordinary means either (communicating, as best we can decipher, directly through emotional stimuli) they wouldn’t ever have a need to develop instruments or music in any form. Spirits seem to be able to experience music we are hearing at the least, though whether they experience the song or the emotions from the song that we experience is unclear. It seems that in either case, them being able to communicate with us on an intimate level is what allows them to ‘hear’ the music in the first place.
As a result, the conclusion I’ve reached is pretty simple, and probably not revolutionary in the slightest. The music of spirits is the evocation of emotions itself. a ‘spiritual singer’ (if such a thing would exist) would be a master not of singing, rhythm, or an instrument, but of weaving together an intense and evocative emotional experience, that its ‘listeners’ would experience as their own. If normal music is designed to encourage us to react and feel a certain way, then spiritual music makes us feel and react in a certain way directly. Simply put, the listener is the instrument.
Just as our music is a form of communication, spiritual music would then be an expression of their communication as well. If they actually do communicate primarily through emotional stimuli, it stands to reason that the music they develop would naturally be obsessed with that same stimuli, and that a ‘beautiful song’ would be a song that can make the listener feel beauty, or whatever emotion(s) the spirit wishes to convey, most acutely and in a way that weaves together almost like a story or a human song.
This explains the complete lack of lyrics at the least. The songs my spirit lover would sing were always ones of either great beauty or triumphant beauty/light against extreme sadness. This makes sense to me on a personal level, given what I presume to know about her. It was likely that she had weaved together the personal emotional experiences she had had into those ‘songs’.
If this is the case, then hidden in such a song could be a very deep understanding of one’s spirit lover. Unfortunately, deciphering a wordless, melody-less song into something coherent isn’t usually very simple. In the case of dreams, surrounding symbolism may sometimes help lend some level of understanding (as if the dreams come partly from them, we could assume that the surroundings would reflect their experiences and emotions as well), but we’re sort of on our own in any other case. It does, however, at the very least allow one to understand the depths of emotion that their spirit lovers have experienced. To understand the happiness and sadness that one’s spirit lover has experienced is a large step towards understanding them by itself. It’s also just fascinating that what I would assume is years and years of emotional experience could be so acutely and smartly communicated in such a short ‘song’.
That’s about all I have to say on the subject. No conclusion, no huge walls of text filled with arguments about whatever random bullshit. Just a quick post about some ‘spirit music’ experiences I’ve had in the past, and why I’ve found them so puzzling. Also, just to be clear, this doesn’t mean that if you’ve had a dream of your spirit lover singing and you did remember some lyrics or something from it, that that experience is fake. It’s just taking a look at what I view as the ‘spirit music’ that my lover has treated me to on occasion, and trying to understand it to the degree that I can.
If you like this kind of blogpost, let me know. It’s super easy to just ‘muse’ a bit about random experiences or thoughts I’ve had. This post only took about 45 minutes to bang out, so it’s the kind of thing that I can put out a lot more often compared to other blog posts.
