possible without the voice!
The voice is the life of music,
the music is the backbone of happiness
and,
getting happiness is everybody's aim
where is there room for any doubt in this connection?
Undoubtedly we can say
if one wants to become bodiless... then
the body of the voice shall have to be accepted,
o embodied! O craftsman!"
At this the craftsman's clean tidy turban
of the hand-woven cloth
says plainly
"On the friction of the purusa and the prakrti
emerges the voice
from the rough and perishable prakrti! But, not from the highest purusa.
Melodious or otherwise, all voices are perishable.
The Gods, the highest Lords may well be imperishable,
but,
their voices are indeed perishable!
