摘要：Music has a unique role to play in the cultivation of people’s personalities and their lives. This has been recognized since ancient times and is being confirmed by a great deal of scientific research today. Not only is there music to suit our every mood, situation, and occasion, but also music affects us in many different ways. It motivates, challenges, soothes, and relaxes us, inspires us, enables us to express our feelings, emotions, love, and compassion, brings an incredible amount of joy, beauty, awe, wonder, and ecstasy into our lives, and causes us to soar to great heights and search for the sublime. It also makes it possible for us to experience much more happiness, contentment, and meaning in life, go deeper and deeper into the soul and the self, learn more about the world around us, and appreciate nature and nature’s elements in all their diverse forms and manifestations far more fully. As our involvement in music intensifies, it can act as a powerful springboard for transforming the human personality into the cultural personality, thereby experiencing more spirituality and fulfillment in life as well as enabling us to live life on a much higher plane of existence and consciousness. While many people have done this in the past and are doing it at present, the life and accomplishments of Albert Schweitzer are especially helpful in this regard because they provide an excellent illustration of how this transformative process can be achieved in fact and realized in the world.
