Question

debate on as food is to body music is to mind .........give some points in favour and some points in against of this topic....

Answer 1

 

For:

Nourishment - Food nourishes the body, giving it vital vitamins and minerals. Similarly, music nourishes the soul, providing it with much needed stimuli. A happy song can cheer up the sad, a religious song can inspire one to do good.

Increases your potential – Healthy food can improve your health and increase your ability to do physical work. Music can open up your mind to an expanse of creativity, thus widening mental and emotional horizons.

Motivation- A healthy diet can give you the energy and hence motivate you to achieve your goals. An underfed person will not be able to focus on his goals. Music is the source of inspiration to many. Some students can study better with music playing in the background, others can exercise better while music motivates yet others to forget their tiredness and get going with their jobs.

Appeals to the senses- While food appeals to the olfactory, visual and gustatory senses, music has the power to appeal to all the senses, primarily because of the imagination that it triggers. Both offer pleasant experiences.

A man is what he eats- As foods affect one’s being (excess of oils can cause pimples) music affects one’s mental state of being (loud, fast music is known to incite people into driving fast).

 

Against:

Necessity- Food is a necessity.  Survival without food is not possible. However, the same cannot be said for music.

Quality of music- While eating bad food causes illness, listening to ‘bad’ music does not cause any psychological issues.

Answer 2

For:

Music relaxes our mind and removes stress. It also helps to study better for those who cannot stand quietness...
