  Nelson,
  For me it is like that 'Apple jacks" cereal commercial on TV where the
parents wonder why teens like the taste of it even though it does not taste
like apples. Their response, "we just do". That is kind of like the
Spiritual side of the Shakuhachi for me. I don't read notation but playing
simply makes me feel better. Playing on a flute I made myself does so even
more regardless of the sound. After a stressful day, I go to the local park
in the evening and simply explore where the sounds take me. great fun,
really.
