Conference In Hyderabad church May 2014

Day 1

Heard great portions from Pastor John and Pastor Bryan

Pastor John spoke on tabernacle and holiness of God

Pastor Bryan spoke on the mediatorial work of Christ and ours with him . Jesus Christ being our high priest and mediator has given The believer the same, to be a mediator who cares. In terms of God's dealing with people we(Moses) move with God's own heart by being gracious to people's sin(golden calf).but when it

Had great time of rap (discussion) with sudah at dinner.. he explained how God is interested in the Believer to be elevated to himself which plainly said would make the Believer to strive in himself which God does not want . So God says come to the throne of Grace and receive mercy.. we need mercy which cleanses us and Grace which elevates us to God

Day 2

My music teacher a sweet heart

After years I met my music teacher yesterday... was a great time..we almost spoke for 2 hours.. Many questions, many answers, I totally adore her. She loves music and being older she's still passionately after it..(She doesn't like to be named in social links/sites and so not naming her- ask me privately)
I think she's full of genuine motivation for music..one thing I wish for her is that she comes into a experiential relationship with Christ the savior..it's not like she is not aware rather she chooses not to be religious... I wish she understands the big fact that God hates religion too..and so knowing God is not the religious thing to do but the normal thing..
She's full of stories..it's about 4ish in the morning and I woke up singing and was thinking about our conversation .As i told you
She's full of stories.. stories about music, life, experiences, everything under the sun..and she is anything but boring.
I thank God for her life.. She knows a lot of fears that i have as a musician..but she's a constant encouragement..
your a sweet heart ( probably she might never read this- she's far from tech stuff and a practical person)

Sometimes Life Is Hard

Sometimes Life Is Hard -  By Kristin 

We never know what's wrong without pain.
Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same.

And sometimes when people get hurt,
Even the strongest ones may need comfort.

The Art Of Rectifying Your Musical Mistakes

       [Here's a video of a girl who gets off to a wrong start but gets back on track in no time 
       (to be precise at 1:06 seconds)]

 

_________________________________________________________________________________

The scene behind your Musical thinking requires:

1. Training your ear
2. Training your musical intuition
3. Bold in making mistakes and rectifying them

1. Training Training your Ear

• listening to wide range of musical genres
• Being able to say what style it is 
• What the time signature is (if you don't know what this is, look it up on Wikipedia)
• learning to analyse a song-
•  to what the shape of the song is:
• where does it become loud or soft?
• Emotional delineation

• learn to see the Musical landscape (Look the picture below which shows the ingredient)

_________________________________________________________________________________

2. Training your musical intuition

• this depends on your personal perception.
• perception 
• human senses ranked in percentages are                                                         sight = 83%
  hearing = 11%
  touch = 3.5%
  smell = 1.5%
  taste = 1% 

•  so to develop your perception you need to learn to associate one sense to the other, i.e., learn to attach your hearing skill to your Feelings/Emotions and your imagination (which is in turn your SIGHT). i cannot stop to impress more on this..

• Learn to create impressions on your emotions
• this can be achieved when you hear a certain  music and at the first point of your hearing you get a hint of a very small emotion, all you need to do is exaggerate the feeling and enjoy it. You'll be surprised of how music can Move you in an AUTO-MODE
• The more you work at developing your taste to something, the more colorful your yearning's become and the more you extract from the pleasures of this LIFE.

_________________________________________________________________________________

 3. Bold in making mistakes and rectifying them

• Mistakes are inevitable and so learning what's next is much more important.
• The more mistakes you make by trying to put into practice what you attempted to learn, the more creative you'll be when you really make a mistake.
• The art of rectifying is a step which comes after you learn the Lesson of  "MAKING A MISTAKE"
