Music Vidyarambam on 24-10-2023





  • All poetry, painting, and music is feeling expressed through words, through colour, through sound.
  • Drama and music are by themselves religion; any song, love song or any song, never mind; if one’s whole soul is in that song, he attains salvation, just by that; nothing else he has to do; if a man’s whole soul is in that, his soul gets salvation. They say it leads to the same goal.
  • High achievements in art, music, etc., are the results of concentration. . . When we hear beautiful music, our minds become fastened upon it, and we cannot take them away.
  • In India, music was developed to the full seven notes, even to half and quarter notes, ages ago. India led in music.
  • In music India gave to the world her system of notation, with the seven cardinal notes and the diatonic scale, all of which we enjoyed as early as 350 B.C., while it came to Europe only in the eleventh century.
  • The greatest aid to this practice of keeping God in memory is, perhaps, music. The Lord says to N├вrada, the great teacher of Bhakti, “I do not live in heaven, nor do I live in the heart of the Yogi, but where My devotees sing My praise, there am I”. Music has such tremendous power over the human mind; it brings it to concentration in a moment. You will find the dull, ignorant, low, brute-like human beings, who never steady their mind for a moment at other times, when they hear attractive music, immediately become charmed and concentrated. Even the minds of animals, such as dogs, lions, cats, and serpents, become charmed with music.                                  -         Swami Vivekananda           -

Swami Vivekananda (12 January 1863 – 4 July 1902) was an Indian saint, social reformer, and a great teacher of mankind. He was the foremost disciple of Bhagavan Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa Dev who is considered as the prophet of modern age. Swami Vivekananda was a towering spiritual personality, great thinker, orator and the prophet of universal harmony and progress.










The Holistic Approach is about- interacting and educating with real world, building social, emotional, physical and spiritual skills. The way Holistic Education works is by focusing teachers’ attention on the affinity of child’s mind towards the subject, physical and spiritual activities, we are bringing the holistic development. Children need to learn to first value themselves, what they are good at, and by recognizing this they will be able to do what they want in life.
