This book is based on Yuval Ron's collaborations with Zen Buddhist masters, Jewish Kabbalists, Gnostic Christians, and Sufi mystics.

Ron takes the reader on a journey of self-discovery that inspires and enables greater access to energy, creativity, and joy. Divine Attunement retells ancient legends about the Middle Eastern poets, gypsies, and great mystics - such as Rumi, Rabbi Yehuda Halevi, Hazrat Inayat Khan, and Baal Shem Tov - all of whom used music to commune with the Divine.
