The healing power of music | Nuvi Mehta & Pepe Romero | TEDxSanDiego

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences.
Nuvi Mehta, the San Diego Symphony Special Project Director, reveals how music has a unique power to bypass the conscious mind and touch us directly within the subconscious. Accompanied by the guitar work of Pepe Romero, we're drawn in as Nuvi talks about the power of music to help us feel, using fun and engaging examples to help us understand just how powerful music can be. He boldly proclaims that the lack of music limits our empathy, our connection, and our ability to perceive. "We marginalize the arts which teach us to see in society at our peril."

"The words that enlighten the soul are more precious than jewels.

Sound is the force of creation, the true whole. Music then, becomes the voice of the great cosmic oneness and therefore the optimal way to reach this final state of healing.

To bring the sublime into the mundane is the greatest challenge there is. In ancient times the greatest of the prophets were great musicians. For a musician, music is the best way to unite with God.

Music touches our innermost being, and in that way produces new life, a life that gives exaltation to the whole being, raising it to that perfection in which lies the fulfillment of man's life.

There is nothing better than music as a means for upliftment of the soul. One day, music will take its rightful place as the true religion of Mankind."
