The Spiritual Dimension of Music

Altering Consciousness for Inner Development

Book by R.J. Stewart. This handbook of musical alchemy looks at music as a "genuine power that effects changes in consciousness." These changes can range from ephemeral mood shifts to dramatic and permanent transformations of consciousness.

Musician, composer, and author, R.J. Stewart goes beyond mere scholarship to present a practical theory of consciousness expansion. He explains how chanting, harmonics, and sustained notes in certain relationships can cause measurable changes in emotion and vitality. He also draws on the works of Hermes Trismegistus, Pythagoras, Dr. John Dee, and the Qabalists and discusses the musical implications of the Tree of Life, the Chakras, and the Four Elements.

The author emphasizes the importance of using music consciously (rather than passively) to bring about desired conditions of body and mind. Combining intuitive vision and practical discipline, his method of using music for inner development can be applied by the novice and music enthusiast as well as the com-poser, musician, or scholar.

R.J. Stewart is a musician, contemporary composer, and author. He has written and recorded for film, television, radio, and theater. His other books include titles on initiation, the creation mythos, and the legends and magical tradition of Merlin.
