If you believe the journey is to arrive in the moment, without ego, and connected to something outside yourself, then yes, music over some systems can take you there. But possessions would work against reaching that state, and I just realized I've mainly had those moments listening to someone else stuff, and not my own possessions, which are often extensions of ego. God knows (slang-speaking) that audiophilia has lusting for stuff as a cornerstone of the faith, but the moment when it all disappears seems spiritual.
Is audio a kind of spiritual journey?
Hi,
Some weeks ago, I read a post in another audio forum that tried to explain that somehow the search for good sound is a spiritual journey.
It mad me think and I wonder, are we just searching for good sound? maybe that good sound is opening some windows or gates in us?
What lies at the essence of what experience when when our system sounds great?
what effect does that produces in us? is it just mere pleasure?
is there something more to it?
when we feel transported by the sound of a melody do we transcend the ordinary?
What do you think?
