This week @LadiesofHive has yet another 2 interesting questions in their weekly Contest-Ladies of Hive Community Contest #109
1️⃣ What is your favorite musical instrument and why? Do you know how to play it? If not, do you think there are limits to learning to play it?
And / Or
2️⃣ Death is an unusual topic of conversation, but remembering death makes us appreciate life. If this were your last birthday, how would you like to celebrate it and why?
I would like to answer both of them. Today I will go with the first one.
I have always been in love with music but never been drawn to any particular instrument as such till some years ago. Everything was almost the same for me. I never had any inclination also to learn any instrument in particular. It all started some years back, around 10 years. I was attending a group Meditation and there they had a Piano music playing in the background during the Meditation. While I was listening to those sounds I felt like I was being transported to another world. It was a very blissful moment for me. I was so lost in that sound and suddenly I had some visions. I was feeling something very different, very ecstatic, something that I had never experienced in any session previously. I discussed it with the leader that time and she said you dived very deeply into it and hence those feelings.
Some days went by and I never felt the same again while meditating, then one day I decided to play piano music of that meditation and again there I was flowing into it and then I did it often and I felt some very strong connection in that music. I kept getting lot of visions during the session. I realized that it was the Piano music that was doing the magic and I was feeling very good every time I heard it in isolation just the piano tune. I could feel that there was some connection.
I was trying to think why this particular instrument and then it came to my mind, when I was very young I had started learning Piano. I had learned just the basics and then left it. Possibly that was one connection, may be a deep desire somewhere stored within to learn which surfaced up. The other instrument that gives me a kick is the Drum, that also takes me on a high but not exactly the same effect of the Piano
I decided to learn Piano, but somehow I have still not been able to get on to it. But I do want to and probably in the near future I will learn it. I do not think so it is difficult for me and I have some memory of what I learned in my childhood days so possibly it will come up fast. I have some friends who teach so that will be not be very difficult for me.
This question also gives me a nudge that in a long time I have not done a Piano music Meditation, nowadays I just sit without any music or guided meditation or any other sound or an Aum chanting and I feel good with that. But I feel today that I should do the Music meditation.
That's my story of my favorite instrument.
