Philip Glass was born on this day 83 years ago in Baltimore Maryland.  Happy Birthday Philip!   • • Allen comments:   In Philip's music and in mantra one principle is to take a simple theme and repeat it over and over with variations, deepening concentration and devotional attention to till you enter into it completely or the mantra enters into you, you become one with the sound.  For some yogis "Shabda," Sound, is an ultimate yoga:  follow sound to its source you'll come to empty silence the origin of the universe.  • #philipglass #mantra #minimalism #minimalist #repetition #pianist #modernclassicalcomposer #koyanisqaatsi #Powaqqatsi #Naqoyqatsi (at East Village, Manhattan) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7_-XiShkMz/?igshid=1ukjsjlqz14ly
