Sentient beings are primarily all Buddhas:
it is like ice and water,
apart from water no ice can exist;
outside sentient beings,
where do we find the Buddhas?
Not knowing how near the Truth is,
people seek it far away, what a pity!

I think that Buddhist (type of) music is most conscious music on this planet. Most conscious, powerful, understanding, relevant, righteous... music.

Everyone who's in samsara will eventually need to achieve nirvana. Everyone has the same objective, eventually everyone that hasn't, will notice this some day, and will try to achieve it.

(my words, that i think are ignorant, but positive hope for myself, maybe others too?)
