"This little separate self must die. Then we shall find that we are in the Real, and that Reality is God, and He is our own true nature, and He is always in us and with us. Let us live in Him and stand in Him. It is the only joyful state of existence".. Swami Vivekananda

"Education, education, education alone! Travelling through many cities of Europe and observing in them the comforts and education of even the poor people, there was brought to my mind the state of our own poor people, and I used to shed tears. What made the difference? Education was the answer I got"...... Swami Vivekananda
UNIVERSAL TEACHINGS OF SWAMI VIVEKANANDA
SEE GOD IN ALL
This is the gist of all worship - to be pure and to do good to others. He who sees Siva in the poor, in the weak, and in the diseased, really worships Siva, and if he sees Siva only in the image, his worship is but preliminary. He who has served and helped one poor man seeing Siva in him, without thinking of his cast, creed, or race, or anything, with him Siva is more pleased than with the man who sees Him only in temples.
GOD IS WITHIN YOU
It is impossible to find God outside of ourselves. Our own souls contribute all of the divinity that is outside of us. We are the greatest temple. The objectification is only a faint imitation of what we see within ourselves.
PERSEVERE IN YOUR SEARCH FOR GOD
To succeed, you must have tremendous perseverance, tremendous will. "I will drink the ocean," says the persevering soul, "at my will mountains will crumble up." Have that sort of energy, that sort of will, work hard, and you will reach the goal.
TRUST COMPLETELY IN GOD
Stand up for God; let the world go.
LOVE OF GOD IS ESSENTIAL
Giving up all other thoughts, with the whole mind day and night worship God. Thus being worshipped day and night, He reveals himself and makes His worshippers feel His presence.

Music Research Institute

"If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music.I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music. ... I get most joy in life out of music." ...Albert Eienstein

Music Research Institute is dedicated to understand "Music" itself.You will also find a community in Orkut in this name where lots of musician ,music lover and other persons have joined that community and my own study,work,survey on music and its application have started to work in real life.I have realized the power to integrate people online and in real life to achieve extrordinary objectives and results for music and humanity.It is a "Virtual Music Research society" but realistic in its activity and influence on the exploration of music and its promotion and proper application to the society. The Word music is common to all and in India we believe that every thing including the Universe is all about Vibration(Shabdabrahmma).Music is the finest form of Vibration.I have used the Word "Research" very conciously because everybody have a right to enter into his self(self thinking) to explore some thing with his knowledge and imagination.MRI try to think study and reserch on every possible aspect of Music by doing "Riyaz",extensive study ,experiments, observation and using theoritical and practical knowledge of music,musicology,philosophy , science , art , mathematics, physics, psycology, phisiology, accoustics, biology, computer science, neurology , sound,engineering,ethology,history and every human value ,feeling, realization,emotion and any feasible way.

What is Music?

Its a big question and we are trying to find out the answer.when sound become music?

there are lots of quotes we have seen by different scholars and masters of different field of Spiritual and material world...

Music is treated as a subject above all wisdom and philosophy by those great minds.In MRI we are also finding some meaning of music.This is not a effort to define music but to realize its meaning and significance and application to individual and society.
Music is a Performing Art.
Music is science.
Music is spiritualism.
Music is the way to achieve God.
Music is a subject of study.
Music is a medicine.

Music Research Institute is a missing link between every individual,every kind of music and person and organization..
