Unfolding Of A Raga

The unfolding of the raga's swaras or notes has often been refereed to as the unfolding of the 'note' petals of a mystic flower. Which was in fact the layout of musical notes during the days of the Sama Veda.

India is less in need of steel weapons, for it has fought with divine weapons , it can still do so. Other nations have been votaries of brute force. India can win all by soul force. Numerous instances in history prove that brute force is nothing before soul force........
