Since my teenage years, I have had a passion for music, and even enjoyed playing instruments myself. I do still listen to music on occasion, and I really do enjoy it when I do, but it is not a part of my life the way it once was...

I am the type who will get a song stuck in his head, so this is not always useful when doing a lot of meditation practice!

But life is interesting sometimes, isn't it? the particular practice I mainly do now involves "melodic sadhana's" (liturgies), as well as instruments. It seems my passion for music may have had a use after all, and has somehow become a part of my dharma practice...
