Nov 14, 2019 at 21:58 comment added Michael Curtis I don't know if it matters for your question, but CCM is sacred lyrically but adopted secular pop music style. Are you looking for that cross over of sacred/secular in the other cultures? Surely there is sacred music all over the world. Whether it is analogous to CCM is a special kind of comparison.

Nov 14, 2019 at 16:11 comment added Rusi @PeterJ And I'm uncomfortable being the one saying that😉 As a staunch perennialist putting any one religion above or below another should be abhorrent and ridiculous. I correlate the problem with the Nicene council which kicked out and genocided the gnostics, putting philosophy and religion into "perennial" conflict.

Nov 14, 2019 at 15:33 comment added PeterJ @Rusi - I also think you've nailed it with your comment about personality. It explains the triviality of much modern and suposedly inspirational Christian music, .

Nov 14, 2019 at 3:40 comment added Rusi I see you've added a clarification/elaboration of your question. Thanks. In that context it needs to be understood that almost no world religion is as personality-centered as Christianity. Even the extreme personality-centered parts of Hinduism like Krishna-cult folks (seen in the west as Hare Krishna) are embedded in a context of abstract concepts like karma, maya etc. And Buddhism Zen Taoism etc are even more impersonal. But are you looking for something more pop-songish? To Shiva Or children singing to the goddess
