Ancient Egyptian Musicians
This picture of an Egyptian Music Teacher and his Pupil tells an allegorical story that can be read on many levels. Music was esteemed the greatest of all the arts in Ancient Egypt because it was through the Holy Word of the Creator that the universe arose. Here we see a student 'tuning her instrument' — a synonym in the Egyptian Mystery Teachings for learning to control our thoughts and emotions. Music also played an important role in the Temples and Colleges of Ancient Egypt where it was used not only for religious services and prayers, but also to teach and heal. Congreve wrote: 'Musick has Charms to sooth a savage Breast.... And Shakespeare tells us that: "Their savage eyes turn'd to a modest gaze by the sweet power of music." That power has been used even in our own times, most notably by some British railway companies, who play classical music in some stations to reduce vandalism and anti-social behaviour; and it works! If even we know how make positive use of the power of music we may be sure that the wise Egyptian Sages employed it much more scientifically and effectively to achieve results we would call miraculous.
