Thanks for launching the post Asuri. I your last post points us back to the spirituality debate, in a sense. Just as authentic physicality requires good nutrition for a healthy body, authentic spirituality involves an emotional response, which can include feelings of significance, unity, awe, joy, acceptance, and consolation. Almost all of us have the biological capacity to feel spiritually transported, but the cognitive context of those moments and the techniques to induce them are a matter of our culture.
The answer to your question then, is ‘yes’. But, this is an individual experience that can be share with a group of like culture. For me, listening to Oasis at times brings me immense uplifting joy. Their music, which at first blush may appear negative, is positive in the extreme with a message that says 'I can be me, and fuck you if you don’t like it".
Even nihilists revel in the joy of their feedback, and is quite fashionable right now. But, is spite of this, I still find deep sources of inspiration from my kids, my work, honest discussion with trusted friends, the intellectual presentation of some modern art (love the work of Micah Lexier, who just shows us who we are).
Lots out there
