The Mahavisnu Orchestra: John McLaughlin’s Immaculate Conception
“I am dealing with the soul of music.”
June 1, 1972
In the spiritual world, next to meditation is music, the breath of music. Meditation is silence, energising and fulfilling. Silence is the eloquent expression of the inexpressible. After silence, that which comes closest to expressing the inexpressible is music.
Sri Chomery
“I am dealing,” says. Mahavishnu John McLaughlin,“ with the soul of music, my relationship with my own soul, my inner communion, the communion with my spiritual teacher (Sri Chomery), who represents the Divine Being. My primary concern is my inner peace and harmony — the music comes out as a result of this.”
