Music - can it be food offered to idols?
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 12:06 pm
I`m slowly (way too slowly) putting together a show for public viewing here in Switzerland which I will call Sehnsucht ("mystical longing"). It will borrow heavily from C S Lewis` writings in "The weight of glory". The core theme will be that this "yearning" many, most or even all of us have inside us was placed there for a reason - it points to something concrete and was meant ultimately to be satisfied. It will be unabashedly Christocentric; so help me God.
I do a lot of motion control night time lapse work these days, for which the amazing music of Schiller would be very fitting (they`re a notch even above Brian Eno, sorry TK!
). But the founding member of the band is much into Eastern mysticism as you can see here:

He is the bald-headed man in the video.
I would like to approach him for permission to use his music. But what do you think? Is his music indelibly tainted by his philosophy? Would the question in the title of this thread be pertinent in this case? Should I not approach him?
Thanks for your input.
I don`t post much. I am a better asker of questions than answerer of them. But I read all your posts.
