In ancient China, the hieroglyph for music also denoted joy and well-being. The Vedic scholars of ancient India and viewed all physical forms as manifestations of music. Cosmology and musical theory developed on parallel principles that underlie the development and manufacture of musical instruments, the composition of music, its performance and the attitude of the listener to it. The theme of music as a metaphor of divine order and charm permeates the mystical literature of Judaism, Christianity, Islam and Gnosticism.
