Music promoting oneness and unity
I am a huge fan of Indian devotional music, known as bhakti music. It is through such music that one can enter into union with their divine self while remaining fully in the world. It is unfortunate that the west has, for the most part, missed out on a similar form of expression, although certain types of techno music are coming close to such oneness. Nevertheless, western music has not been without its devotional aspects, and there are some songs which I consider musical prayers. A brief list of these is below.
