THE ALCHEMIST - paulo coelho

i read this book a month back and was mesmerized by the authors knowledge and understanding of customs and there interconnections, the book revolved around the purest of form of language, a language that everyone could understand "THE LANGUAGE OF THE WORLD", a language of OMENS and understanding them to make sense of them.
what i liked was the way the author explained the communication of heart and it's beholder.
and what i disagreed with was the language of omens, its very closeness to superstitions that what wee see so often in our homes (eg. of black cats etc.),what i understand is the LANGUAGE OF THE WORLD is MUSIC:
a symphony of 100 piece orchestra can be clubbed with a bhangra beat to create a new dimension that the critic of symphony n critics of bhangra (if there are any) can both understand,
how many of us have listened to the song that we had no idea about still we loved the rhythm the beats i give the the example of santana, sufi music, ricky martin even daddy yankee with his gasolina got us jumping.

the point i wana make is that if there is a LANGUAGE OF THE WORLD it will be simple, as GOD is, as FAITH is, as HE intended all his children to understand it HE must have made it simple and whats more simple than MUSIC "THE LANGUAGE OF THE WORLD"
