“Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.”
― Plato
As human beings, we all have certain responsibilities towards the society. It is this sense of responsibility that ignites the flame of doing something good for people who live on marginal conditions. Now, the confusion that invariably pops up at this stage is seeking the best way in which the downtrodden can be provided with some benefit. Providing
- Food to hungry
- Clothes to the poor and
- Free medical care to the sick, etc.
are the common measures by which one can bring the invaluable smile on the face of someone who has been badly bruised by the hands of fate. However, India is the eternal land of wisdom that believes education is the most precious gift that one can provide to the needy. It is, after all, education that enables one to lead a respectable life in future. Thus, providing free music education for underprivileged is undoubtedly, the invaluable gift that one can afford to give the poor.
Power and Magic of Music
Music has the power to interact with our souls. The divine energy that flows out from music reaches our ears and goes straight down into our heart. This is the reason because of which, it is most easy to connect to hordes of strangers, at a go, directly through music.
- Music is the most effective way that helps a child to grow up as a balanced and ideal human being.
- It is music that teaches an individual how to cope with stress and strain, in the journey called life.
Music Training with Social Responsibility
There are thankfully, many dedicated NGOs that provide free music training to street children. Training in any disciple of music has been restricted for a privileged few, since the onset of history. Moreover, musical instruments are significantly expensive.
Therefore, the effort that the organizations are making, to spread musical skills among the poor is honestly praiseworthy. In fact, several premier music institutes too have joined this movement. It is often that one will come across free music training camps being organized, in a neighbourhood, for the local slum children. This is an excellent way to curb the overall crime rate, across the society, in the days to come.
