Hi sruthy,

Such types of music are so personal, like a calling only one's soul could recognize. And I’m not sure what genres you favor, in general. I can recommend a few of the artists whom I find spiritually nourishing, for myself, that I think others might find something in, as well:

Brian Eno’s ambient recordings (Apollo is a good album to start out with).

Armen Ra - his debut album is Plays the Theremin.

Philip Glass - repetitive/minimalist-type compositions. His compositions for soundtracks might be a good place to start (The Hours, The Truman Show, etc.)

Richard Wagner - operatic composer, but he is not for everyone. I’d recommend Lohengrin to test the waters/begin the acquaintance.

Erik Satie - turn-of-last-century repetitive/minimalist composer.

A few others off the top of my head: Henryk Górecki, Sigur Rós, Loreena McKennitt, György Ligeti, Saint-Saëns, Liszt, Chopin.
