Completely
It is within the power of every man to completely change his environment and completely heal his body.

Tenacity of purpose and honesty in pursuit will bring you to your goal. – Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

Glimpses
This is what the music does, it gets inside you, an energy that keeps you alive, always driving, riding the waves, following the sounds that make you feel. It keeps you seeking, for the truth you can hear with your soul. The music gives you glimpses of the power and light that exists in dimensions outside of our own.

Do it as totally as possible, and forget the result. …you have to forget about the result, only then does it happen. You have to be in the act totally.
