Review "An incredible book by a master musician and storyteller! Yuval opens a window into the world of sacred sound by presenting tales from Sufi, Hassidic, Christian, Arabic, Hindu, and Zen traditions - stories that will bring tears to your eyes. This book shows how music has the power to heal, open doors to creativity, and support the spiritual quest." Mark Robert Waldman, author of Why We Believe What We Believe and How God Changes Your Brain"Yuval Rons book shows how the music of the mystical traditions are a vital source for all who seek a deep connection with the divine source and each other on the path to authentic selfhood. Read and treasure this book." Bernard McGinn, Ph.D., author of The Foundations of Mysticism"In an age when religion has often become a source of conflict, the great mystical traditions point us toward unity. Divine Attunement celebrates these traditions through music and movement, poetry and prose. I encourage anyone interested in mystical transformation to join Yuval on his enchanting spiritual journey." Varun Soni, Ph.D., author of Natural Mystics"In Damanhur, we tap the sacred matrix of music and our rituals are replete with sound that accesses levels of Divinity. I heartily endorse this book and encourage readers to employ Yuvals meditative exercises as a pathway to the sacred." Betsy Pool, Director of Integrated Media Strategy for the Federation of Damanhur "Yuval Ron shares secrets of the Beloved as only a Lover can do. Through timeless stories, modern science and personal experience, Yuval lifts the veil so we can glimpse the Invisible Intelligence that calls us home through song and dance." Philip M. Hellmich, author of God and Conflict: A Search for Peace in a Time of Crisis"How lucky for us that Yuval has taken up his pen - in addition to his oud - to show how music may heal a broken world. This book is a gift that helps us learn how music and dance ultimately twine heaven to earth." Ruth Broyde Sharone, filmmaker and author of the prize-winning memoir, Minefields & Miracles: Why God and Allah Need to Talk"Music is the language of the soul and the reflections of this master musician connect us to the Source of All.

Rabbi Edward Feinstein, author of Jews and Judaism in the 21st Century "I have always admired Yuvals ecstatic and uplifting music, which descends from a celestial realm. This memoir interweaves the latest research on the science of music and altered states - a must read for anyone traveling the mystic path."
